Outstanding!
Cannot recommend Cripps highly enough! We got married here on the 2nd of July and we cannot fault anything. The venue is stunning, food is delicious and the staff are so friendly, professional, helpful, and really made sure our special day went smoothly and everything went to plan! Wish we could do it all over again.Cannot recommend Cripps highly enough! We got married here on the 2nd of July and we cannot fault anything.

Incredible!
Wow! Where do we begin, Cripps Barn was the most insane setting for our wedding day. From start to finish the Cripps team were incredible, every question was responded to so promptly and on the day Aimee was the best coordinator. We couldn’t fault anything!
The wedding breakfast and evening food was incredible, our guests said it was the best wedding food they’d ever tasted! We also would definitely recommend the feast nights to try all the different offerings they do. A great way to see the venue as well with suppliers!
We are so glad we chose Cripps as our venue, we want to do it all over again! We can’t thank the team enough.

Daughter's wedding
This is a stylish venue set in gorgeous countryside with the main building being a lovely converted barn. the venue lends itself to being decked out with beautiful flowers and looked a treat on the day. Planning was aided by detailed and sympathetic input from the CB team. The drinks and food service on the day was simply superb and in particular the food (the Feast Menu), which was excellent and copious! Throughout, the staff were attentive to the needs of the bride and groom and all the guests. Cripps Barn is not cheap, but on the other hand one gets what one pays for. A truly memorable day.This is a stylish venue set in gorgeous countryside with the main building being a lovely converted barn. the venue lends itself to being decked out with beautiful flowers and looked a treat on the day.

Stop thinking about booking Cripps and just book it.
Yes Cripps Barn is stunningly beautiful and a perfect venue - you will see this for yourself.
Yes the food will be the best wedding food your guests will ever have - you'll find this out yourself at one of their feast nights.
But the bit that won't be obvious until the day is how calm Cripps will make you feel. You might think that Cripps is a touch expensive and you might be tempted to try somewhere cheaper but similarly beautiful, or even to use a dry venue. However, I can't describe the value that the organisation and professionalism of Cripps had on our enjoyment of the day.
This leads on to Emily, our wedding coordinator. Nothing was too much effort, she was unflappable - despite the endless, very specific requests from us. In the build up we had our meeting and call to run through details and on the day I dropped off our various decorations and went through the specifics. Emily was all over it like it was the easiest thing in the world. When I turned up a few hours later for the ceremony everything was done to perfection. She kept us calm and relaxed and ensured we enjoyed every moment, taking us off for a quiet moment after our ceremony so we could breathe. We weren't worried about the cake table, or the band set up or whether the bridesmaids had the confetti - it just got done. Emily was present through the day but never in our space nor commanding much of our attention, she struck the balance perfectly.
It's clear that Emily loves her job, that showed through the whole day. But one moment where this was particularly evident, that we only saw after, was during my wife's speech. Esther had written a song to perform on the piano, and we filmed it. In the background of the video you can see Emily, hiding at the back with a huge smile beaming while watching. We even saw her wipe away a tear despite the countless wedding speeches she must have watched!
For us, the value in booking somewhere like Cripps is how they will make you feel. Our worries in the build up were minimal and on the day nonexistent thanks to Emily and the Cripps team.Yes Cripps Barn is stunningly beautiful and a perfect venue - you will see this for yourself.

Perfect wedding
My wife and I recently married here in March 2024, the venue is just stunning, a great space to dine and entertain guests surrounded by gorgeous countryside. The staff could not do enough for us and in fact on the day it was commented that although they were present delivering a seamless experience, you barely noticed that the staff were there. The quality of the food produced was another consistent comment from our guests, it was delicious. Cripps really looked after us throughout the process leading up to, during and after the wedding.

The Venue is absolutely stunning so was perfect for our winter wedding! The food was absolutely delicious and guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Everything about our day was perfect - thank you so much everyone at Cripps!!

A gorgeous venue!
Amazing setting, delicious food and the staff were on hand to provide support for what we needed to provide along with help on ideas for the day (such as cocktail hour!) everyone was very kind and helpful. We chose the feast menu which was really lovely, so much food! Would highly recommend bao buns for later! Sadly there was no flex on swapping out dessert choices but they provided us with a solution regarding canapes which worked for us. Speeches had be after the meal and couldn't be between courses or before the food - something to keep in mind. But as we didn't have a dessert course (used our wedding cake instead) that cut the overall feasting time down (and therefore sitting time) for speeches at the end not to feel too rushed before the party started.
Would absolutely recommend this venue, it's gorgeous and lots of places nearby for guests to stay. I'd suggest booking the taxi's for the wedding night around 2 months in advance in order to secure them, some don't run that late and there will be other weddings in the area - remind your guests!

Thank you for your lovely message, we hope you and your guests enjoyed the Lychee Cocktails!
We are sorry we weren't able to switch out the dessert choices, but we're pleased we were able to find a solution with the canapes, which seemed like this worked well with your timings!
