    Beautiful day at Cripps

    We had the most magical wedding day at Cripps Barn. Everything came together beautifully, the team was very helpful and took much prep off our hands. Communication throughout was excellent and any question we had were answered promptly. The food on the day was fantastic!

    A magical venue and an amazing team!

    We got married at Cripps Barn last week - it was a small-ish wedding with 70 guests, and the whole wedding was an absolute dream.

    I am Canadian and my partner is from New Zealand, meaning we had people flying over from across the world to attend our wedding. This came with its fair share of additional questions, logistics and last-minute queries and changes. The whole Cripps team made the entire process stress-free, accommodating and supportive; they were incredibly responsive whenever we had questions, and provided a lot of insight and advice whenever we didn't know how best to proceed with some components of the wedding.

    Our guests kept on telling us how the venue was incredible, unlike any other place they had seen before. They loved its cosiness, how it perfectly emulated the Cotswolds aesthetic and atmosphere, and they raved about the staff on site for the wedding. Everyone was incredibly helpful and so kind.

    My partner and I will forever remember this amazing day at Cripps. It was the best choice for our wedding - we also thought that the value for the location and amenities was great. We got married in October on a Wednesday which I believe has made us save some money with the venue hire; this allowed us to inject funds into fun extras to make the day even more special.

    Lastly - a special shout out to Aimee who has played an instrumental part in the planning of our wedding. She was the one who welcomed us when we initially visited the venue, and she was also our front of house/wedding coordinator on the day. She is an amazing person who makes everything feel so smooth and easy. A true gem - thanks so much Aimee for everything!

    Cripps Barn - Cripps & Co's reply:

    Good afternoon Genevieve and Shaun,

    Thank you so very much for your kind words!

    It was so much fun the plan everything with you both and we are so glad to hear we have been helpful. Aimee said it was such a wonderful day with you both and your guests, and we will be sure to pass on your message to her; she will be thrilled!

    We wish you both all the very best and do hope to see you in the future!

    Best wishes,

    The Most Perfect Day at Cripps Barn

    We honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding day at Cripps Barn. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The team were calm, kind, and so organised, which meant we could just relax and enjoy every moment.

    The barn itself is stunning; full of character, warmth, and atmosphere. When it was filled with our friends and family, it felt magical. The food was out of this world and we’re still hearing from guests who said it was the best wedding meal they’ve ever had.

    In fact, so many people told us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. Not just because of how beautiful the venue looked, but because of how relaxed and joyful the whole day felt. Cripps Barn gave us the most incredible memories, and we’ll always be grateful to the team for making it so special.

    Hi Abbie,

    We are so thrilled to hear you had an amazing wedding with us here at Cripps Barn!

    It really was a fantastic day, and the barn really did look gorgeous; we can't wait to see some of your pictures!

    We wish you both all the very best for your future!

    Best wishes,

    The best team and venue we could have wished for!

    We got married at Cripps Barn last month and really did have the best day ever thanks to the brilliant team and most stunning venue. We got a great first impression from the Cripps team at the open days, everyone we spoke to was warm, really on it with organisation and had a clear, seamless process - this was the case throughout. James was a brilliant front of house manager on the day, he thought of everything and we felt in such safe hands with him. The planning call a week or so before the wedding was really helpful and gave us a clear idea of what would happen on the day. He kept us informed throughout and was such a calming and positive presence on the day. The food was incredible, we had so many people tell us it was the best food they'd ever had, with people recreating the dishes after the wedding! Nothing was too much for the team, everyone was so friendly and approachable. The venue itself is so stunning with a perfect mix of modern and rustic charm, beautiful views and such a lovely feel. I couldn't praise the team and the beautiful location enough, thank you so much for the most amazing day.

    Hi Mimi and Callum,

    Thank you so very much for your lovely message!

    It really was such a wonderful day, and we are glad to hear you enjoyed the planning process as much as the day too. It was a joy to help you both have the best day and we would love to do it all over again with you! James and the team said it was lots of fun!

    We wish you both all the very best for your future!

    The most perfect venue

    Cripps Barn was the most perfect venue - it was the first one we saw and we knew instantly it would be perfect for our wedding.

    Planning wise, working with Cripps Barn was great and alleviated a lot of stresses. They knew exactly what they were doing, how the timings of the day should go, and exactly how everything would work, and kept us organised when it came to seating plans, guest numbers and dietary requirements. We knew if we had any questions we could just ask. The meeting the week before the wedding to iron out the final details helped with any stresses we may have had about the day. It was very handy to have been provided a directory of suppliers - those who had worked with Cripps before said how lovely the team there were and how lovely the venue was.

    The food was delicious - it was so great to have so many options - we went for the Garden menu as a lot of our guests were vegan and veggie, and we had roasted chicken on the table for those who ate meat. And the evening pizzas were very welcome! Everyone loved the food and said how great it was.

    In all, the venue was stunning - everyone loved it! The team (shout out to James and Aimee who were our initial contacts) and Zoe and Emily who were in charge on the day were great and kept everything running smoothly.

    Thank you so much! Xx

    Exceptional

    Cripps was amazing. We nearly didn’t view it because we wanted a venue with accommodation but I’m so glad we did. Such a special place with an amazing team, great food, incredible setting. Feel very lucky we booked cripps and had the perfect day.

    Nothing short of magical

    Cripps Barn was the perfect choice for our wedding. We were incredibly impressed with every aspect, from the venue itself to the meticulous planning and exceptional service on the day. We expected it to be good, but it truly surpassed all our expectations.

    Before the Wedding
    The planning process was excellent. The team was highly responsive, and communication was seamless throughout, making everything incredibly smooth.

    On the Day
    The staff was extraordinary. James, our manager for the first half of the day, was outstanding. He was instrumental in ensuring the event ran smoothly, managing timings perfectly, and expertly handling any minor issues that arose. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better manager.

    The Venue
    The venue itself is stunning. The breathtaking outdoor spaces, the magical open kitchen, and the rustic indoor areas all contributed to its beauty. Every one of our guests complimented how beautiful Cripps Barn is.

    The Food
    The food was another exceptionally strong highlight. It was truly a culinary experience for all our guests, and we received countless compliments. Even the vegetarian and vegan options were incredible and highly praised.

    Thank you to the entire Cripps team for giving us a fairytale wedding.

    The venue of our dreams!

    Cripps Barn is the most incredible venue! From the moment we viewed it, through a whole year of planning and especially on our wedding day itself, the Cripps team have been exceptional.

    We didn’t have to worry about anything. The team knows the answer to every possible question and helped put us at ease throughout our entire planning journey.

    Aimee, you were so amazing on our wedding day! I still can’t believe how every single detail and piece of decor was exactly how we wanted them to be. Thank you for listening to us so closely and making sure that our vision came to life, but especially for helping create/ run what ended up being the best day of our lives.

    The venue itself is out of this world. It was perfect for what we were looking for. Every guest was gobsmacked at how stunning the building and grounds are and kept coming up to us to say how beautiful the day had been.

    The outdoor patio, fire pits, oak room, outdoor ceremony area.. everything! Is just stunning.

    We definitely recommend Cripps Barn!!

    Hi Amanda and Daniel,

    We truly appreciate your very kind words, thank you!

    It was a wonderful day and we have loved planning it with you. Aimee was very excited to be a part of it on the day too, and said it really was a fun day!

    We wish you both all the very best for your future.

    Best wishes,

    Gemma & Matt Pougher 18.07.25


    We had our wedding at Cripps Barn on Friday 18th July 2025 and it truly was the best day of our lives.

    We have had multiple compliments from guests saying how the venue was presented beautifully, how the food was the best they’d ever had at any wedding venue and how helpful and nice all the staff were on the day.

    I would also like to single out James. James by either coincidence or design has been through this process with us since the very start. He initially showed us round the venue and his passion for Cripps Barn and for his product was what made this one our choice. He wasn’t pushy. He really matched the tone, he was ace. Fast forward to our wedding and his passion continued and everything he said he would do and complete for us was done to military precision and with an amazing attitude. He was very accommodating and eased all possible nerves on the day. With having to deal with him throughout the day he struck us as just a really kind person.

    The day went seamlessly and we can’t thank the Cripps team enough for everything they did. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone. 10/10 all round.

    Many congratulations and we wish you all the very best for your future.
