    Wedding Day of Dreams!

    We had the most amazing wedding day on 7th September 2026, and we honestly couldn’t have wished for anything more perfect.

    Emma, our wedding planner, was absolutely brilliant. She was so supportive throughout the planning process and always there when we needed her. Unfortunately, Emma wasn’t able to run the day itself, but Laura was absolutely fabulous stepping in and taking over. She helped organise everything so smoothly, and the whole day went perfectly to plan.

    Myself and my husband had the most incredible day. The venue was absolutely breathtaking and truly felt like a dream come true. Everything was so beautiful, and we wouldn’t change a single thing.

    It’s a day we will treasure forever, and if we could do it all over again, we absolutely would! Thank you to everyone who helped make our wedding day so magical and unforgettable. ❤️

    Hi Grace, Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear your wedding day was everything you dreamed of. Emma will be thrilled to know how much her support meant throughout the planning, and Laura will be equally delighted to hear she helped make the day run so smoothly. It was a pleasure to be part of your celebration, and we wish you both a lifetime of happiness! Best wishes, the Curradine Barns team

    Best venue ever!!

    We are not overly sure how to get all of our happiness and gratitude into a review, but we will try!

    We were set on getting married in Devon as it is such a special place to us, but had booked to look around Curradine as it was closer to home. It was the first venue we looked at and after seeing it, we cancelled every other appointment we had. We just knew it was the place we’d get married. It was the most cosy, beautiful venue we could have hoped.

    Over the two years of planning we were so incredibly looked after and loved by all of the team. We were so lucky to have Lara as our venue coordinator. She literally went above and beyond every single day to reassure us, help us and make sure we got the wedding we wanted. Nothing was ever too much for Lara, from helping me with my dress to being the first smile we saw after we got married, waiting for us with a drink. Every little worry we had, she had a solution for and we always felt like we were in the safest hands. She was such a huge part of our wedding journey and we will be forever grateful to her. The entire team are just brilliant, including Laura, the manager, and we genuinely could not have asked for better people to look after us.

    We were also really lucky to be able to stay in the Farmhouse and Honeymoon Cottage for two nights. It was so lovely being able to get back to our room in seconds to change my shoes, get into my evening dress or put my flowers in water. It also just felt so special to be able to stay there and made the whole experience even more magical.

    And the food!!!

    Wedding food can sometimes be a bit of the same thing over and over, but Stephen and his team are just incredible. So many people told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had and we had so many messages afterwards asking where we had found our chef. We didn't even have to look, they just came with the venue! I have honestly never had wedding food like it. Every single thing was just out of this world and so special. I am mostly just sad that I can't have our wedding menu again!

    The Bellini bar, the photo booth, the evening pizzas and all of the little special touches throughout the day were just incredible. Everything felt so thought through and seeing everything we had imagined over the two years of planning actually come to life was completely breathtaking.

    We feel so incredibly lucky to have got married at Curradine. It was everything we could have hoped for and more and we will forever be grateful to every single person there for making our day so incredibly special!

    Curradine Barns's reply:

    Hi Aleicia, Thank you so much for such a heartfelt review. We’re so pleased that Curradine Barns captured your hearts from that very first visit and became the perfect place for you to say, “I do”.
    Lara, Laura, Stephen and the whole team will be absolutely delighted to read your kind words. Knowing that you felt so well looked after throughout your two-year journey, and that every detail came together just as you had imagined, means so much to us.
    We’re especially thrilled that the food was such a highlight too! Thank you for choosing Curradine Barns and for trusting us with such an important day. It was a pleasure to be part of your wedding journey, and we wish you both a lifetime of happiness. Best wishes, the Curradine Barns team

    From 3 Months of Planning to a Truly Perfect Day

    We had an incredible wedding day at Curradine Barns and are so grateful to the entire team for all their hard work! Planning our wedding in just 3 months came with a few initial hiccups, and communication wasn't quite as prompt as we had hoped at the start. However, once we spoke with the manager, they worked incredibly hard to accommodate all our unique requests and even kindly offered us an extra pizza topping as a thoughtful gesture.

    On the day itself, everything ran so smoothly and was absolutely perfect. A special mention has to go to Emma—she was amazing! She consistently checked in on my husband and me to make sure we had everything we needed, and she made sure to give us a proper handover to the evening team when her shift finished.

    The food was lovely and all of our guests thoroughly enjoyed it—the chefs did a wonderful job. Our personal favourite was the vanilla crème brûlée, which was so beautiful and creamy!

    Thank you to everyone for making our day so special.

    Curradine Barns's reply:

    Hi Grace, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re delighted that, despite the initial challenges of planning your wedding in such a short time, everything came together to give you such an incredible day.
    Emma and the whole team will be so pleased to hear your kind words. We’re thrilled that you felt so well looked after, and that the food was such a highlight too. The vanilla crème brûlée sounds like a firm favourite!
    Thank you again for choosing Curradine Barns. It was a pleasure to be part of your special day, and we wish you both a lifetime of happiness. Best wishes, the Curradine Barns team

    Best Day Ever!

    We had our wedding at Curradine in July 2026 and it was the most amazing day. We booked our wedding with over 2 years to go and throughout the whole process the staff at Curradine were super friendly helpful and communicative. We had Hannah as our coordinator and she was amazing, so much enthusiasm and the whole day was just perfect! Our vision came to life perfectly and it was just the dream venue and wedding. All of our guests commented on how lovely the venue was, how friendly the staff were and especially how good the food was, it was incredible! Hannah and Haydn looked after us so well on the day and we will always be so grateful! Would highly recommend Curradine.

    Curradine Barns's reply:

    Hi Stephanie, Thank you so much for such a lovely review! We’re thrilled to hear your wedding at Curradine was everything you dreamed of. Hannah and Haydn will be delighted to hear how well they looked after you, and we’ll be sure to share your kind words with them. It’s wonderful to know your guests loved the venue, food and team too. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness! Best wishes, the Curradine Barns team

    The perfect venue!

    Wow! From the moment we saw Curradine Barns when we looked around on one of their open days, we both knew this was the perfect venue for us. It is in a stunning location, surrounded by beautiful countryside and has the most amazing areas such as the courtyard for the drinks reception, the cottage garden for the ceremony and the barn for the partying into the evening. All of our guests have commented on what a perfect venue it is and how beautiful it is! We could not have asked any more from Curradine. Emma - our wedding coordinator - supported us from the moment we booked our date to after our event. She was amazing: calming, supportive and friendly. Anything we wanted doing, she was on it straight away! She even helped me to surprise my husband with a visit from his dog called
    Emily.
    The whole team at Curradine made our dreams come true and helped us to pull off the most magical wedding day. The food was out of this world with delicious canapés in the courtyard, BBQ sharing boards and then wood fired pizzas in the evening which everyone loved!
    I would never hesitate to recommend Curradine Barns to another couple who are thinking about getting married here- it is truly an amazing place and it will hold a very special place in our hearts. Thank you to the whole team at Curradine but in particular Emma. Mr and Mrs Osborne x

    What a day!

    What can I say? What a perfect wedding day! From our first visit to look around with the lovely Tess, we booked in straight away as we knew it was the perfect place for us.

    We were assigned Emma as our wedding coordinator and absolutely fell on our feet with her - she is everything we could have hoped for in a planner. Her knowledge, humour and passion for making sure everything was exactly how we wanted it made us feel secure and relaxed every step of the way. We genuinely have so much love for Emma who felt like a friend through it all!

    We attended a Chefs Table event, which was well worth it and meeting Stephen and some of his team, we knew the food for the wedding would be out of this world!

    The day itself was perfect. Everything we could have wished for happened. We got lucky with weather being warm and sunny so our guests could use the picturesque courtyard like we had hoped. So many of our guests have told us it’s the best wedding they’ve ever been to and that the food is the best they’ve ever had at a wedding too which is pretty good going in our books, but we expected nothing less from Stephen, Emma and the rest of their teams 🥰

    If we had our wedding day 100 times over, we would pick Curradine Barns every time, it was such a special and perfect day we’ll never forget.

    Curradine Barns's reply:

    Hi Lh Georgia, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re delighted to hear that your wedding day was everything you hoped for and that Emma, Stephen, Tess and the wider team helped make it so special.
    It’s wonderful to know your guests enjoyed the food and the day as much as you did. Thank you for choosing Curradine Barns to celebrate such an important occasion – we wish you both every happiness for the future. Best wishes, the Curradine Barn team

    Wonderful venue, challenging coordination experience

    Strap in, this is going to be a long one.

    In short: the wedding day itself was perfect. The year building up to it was anything but.

    The venue itself is beautiful. From the string-lit driveway and flower-lined paths, through to the cosy entrance, bar area, ceremony barn, dining room, and gorgeous courtyard that ties it all together, it creates an amazing setting for a wedding day. That part was an easy win.

    The staff on the day were fantastic. Friendly, welcoming, and genuinely excited to host us. Once the wedding arrived, everything ran seamlessly and we couldn't fault the team delivering the day itself.

    Unfortunately, after paying our deposit, expectations started to slip. Excitement gradually turned into frustration and, at times, defeat. In the final weeks before the wedding, after yet another difficult interaction, we felt forced to raise a formal complaint.

    To the venue's credit, things changed dramatically after that. The enthusiasm returned. Communication improved. The friendly atmosphere came back. The General Manager stepped in, and ultimately the wedding itself went without a hitch.

    A large part of our frustration came down to our assigned coordinator. Whether we were simply unlucky or whether company policies were being enforced too rigidly, I can't say for certain.

    What I can say is that we never built the relationship you would expect with someone coordinating one of the most important days of your life. We never felt understood as a couple, and there didn't seem to be much effort to get to know us or help personalise the experience.

    The recurring issue wasn't necessarily hearing "no" occasionally. We completely understand venues have limitations. The issue was how often it felt like the conversation ended there.

    Rather than "I'll look into it", it felt like "no". Rather than "we can't do that, but here's an alternative", it often felt like just "no".

    This covered multiple areas throughout the process: food choices, drinks, decorations, accommodation, and even arranging meetings to discuss concerns.

    The experience sold to us initially felt flexible, bespoke, and centred around creating your day. During much of the planning process, we unfortunately experienced the opposite.

    Ultimately, it felt like a combination of company inflexibility in places and communication that lacked the warmth and flexibility you hope for when planning such a major life event.

    There is definitely resentment from how difficult parts of the build-up became over the last year, and that's hard to completely forget.

    For future couples, if you feel early on that you are not connecting with your coordinator, raise it sooner rather than later. We held back because we didn't want to create awkwardness or tension leading into the wedding day, but looking back, I suspect asking the question earlier may have helped.

    For management, one suggestion would be a check-in point around six months before the wedding, giving couples an opportunity to privately confirm everything is working well or raise concerns if it isn't. A quiet opportunity to say "everything is great" or "we're struggling a bit" before frustrations build.

    This venue gave us a perfect wedding day. We just wish the journey getting there had felt as special as the day itself.

    Curradine Barns's reply:

    Hi Amy, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re truly pleased to hear that your wedding day itself was everything you hoped for and that the venue, atmosphere and team on the day helped create such a special celebration.

    We’re sorry, however, that parts of the planning journey left you feeling frustrated and unsupported at times. Planning a wedding should feel exciting throughout, and we regret that this was not consistently your experience. We do appreciate your honesty and the constructive nature of your feedback, particularly regarding communication and check-in opportunities during the planning process. We’re glad we were able to rebuild some confidence in the lead up to your wedding and ensure the day itself ran seamlessly. Your comments have been shared with the wider management team as we are always looking at how we can improve the experience for future couples. Thank you again for choosing to celebrate with us, and we wish you both every happiness for the future. Best wishes, the Curradine Barns team
