Stunning venue with a perfect team
We could wax-lyrical about Odo’s Barn all-day however to summarise both the Venue and Team (lead by Charlotte) I would simply describe both as ‘Perfect’.
Odo’s Barn is a family-run (and owned) owned/party venue and having first visited last year with an aim of tying the knot in September (2024) the entire process was just seamless.
Set in a beautiful age-old barn, Charlotte was warm, welcoming and hugely accommodating.
Her help, assistance and support throughout was sublime and her attention to detail ensured the day ran better than smoothly creating what was the best day of our lives (so far!).
We can’t wait to visit again as a reminder of just how perfect the day was.

Amy C. Sent on 13/09/2024The Beauty of Odos Barn
Where to start with this amazing venue? From the moment we walked into Odo's Barn we knew this was where we were going to get married. The barn itself is strikingly beautiful with its rustic look flooded with natural light due to being very extremely spacious but also lit up with beautiful twinkling fairy lights – we fell in love.
Odo's is surrounded by a large amount of outdoor space with plenty of places for guests to sit and chill and mingle with one another and for suppliers to set up - a large patio with quirky sofas and chairs, a huge courtyard with wooden tables and a giant swing and the long meadow overlooking the surround countryside.
With two options of locations to get married inside and out – we opted to get married in the meadow which was simply stunning with plenty of picturesque places for photos opportunities.
Access to the barn the day before and after was also a real benefit. Having piece of mind setting up everything up the way we wanted, whilst also being able to enjoy a picnic with nearest and dearest in the meadow building up the excitement of the next day.
Charlotte, your passion for your business and love for weddings shines throughout all your guidance in the planning process but also your support on the day. You took away all the stress of wedding planning helping us with each step; recommending suppliers, supporting with decorations, regular catch ups allowing us to visit whenever we wanted to, organising the wedding party and generally being there for us with anything we needed – we cannot thank you and the team enough!
My words cannot recommend Charlotte and the barn enough - so make sure you view and consider the barn as your future wedding location! Our day was everything we envisioned and more – I will always hold the memories made at Odo's close to my heart!
Love Mr & Mrs Calvert xx -

Where do we even begin? We really can’t put into words how beautiful this venue is. We only looked at Odo’s Barn and knew instantly that we wanted our wedding here. Nothing else compared. A big draw was the three day hire – this allowed for set up the day before the wedding day.
The barn feels intimate but there’s plenty of space, the barn itself has so much character and has been tastefully decorated. The surrounding fields and outdoor space provide breath-taking views of the countyside (golden hour pictures at the monument are a must)
From the initial meeting with Charlotte to the wedding day itself, she was always on hand to answer any questions, give recommendations and ensure that everything ran smoothly.
We had the most magical day and we honestly can’t thank Charlotte enough. She is a wonderful host. All the staff on the day were extremely attentive and worked very hard!
Our guests have said that it was the BEST wedding they have been to.
If you’re thinking of booking Odo’s Barn just do it! You will not be disappointed. Hands down THE most amazing wedding venue in Kent.

The Perfect Venue
Odo's Barn was the first and only venue we viewed - we decided there and then that this was where we wanted to marry. The Barn, the gardens, the moat and the views are all just so beautiful!
Charlotte was a joy to deal with right from the start, from her amazing list of preferred suppliers to being full of great advice and knowledge during the wedding planning stage, and was always available to answer any questions we had.
The big day itself was absolutely perfect. The Barn looked incredible, and Charlotte and her team all worked their socks off to make sure ourselves and our guests were looked after and that the day ran smoothly.
We will treasure the memories of our amazing day at Odo's Barn forever, and it was worth every single penny. We're already wishing we could do it all over again! -

Will Sent on 29/09/2024An absolutely gorgeous venue and an incredible team
A seriously excellent venue and brilliant team, Odo's Barn has surpassed our expectations and delivered a day better than we could ever have hoped for. Charlotte works meticulously hard on every detail, and was wonderful to consult with throughout the whole process. We weren't too sure what we were doing when planning our wedding ourselves, we were a bit nervous and didn't have a 100-page ring binder with a perfect plan ready to go, and needed quite a bit of help and guidance with our relatively bare-bones plan. But she had endless time and patience for all our annoying and silly questions, and was more than happy to steer us in the right direction, recommending experienced suppliers who have worked the venue plenty of times before, and suggested changes which we never would've thought of ourselves. A huge number of questions and queries from us in the months leading up to the day were answered quickly and kindly, putting any anxiety to rest, and the lead up to the day and day-before setup was super professional, with all staff more than willing to be an enthusiastic and hard working pair of hands, while offering advice and suggestions when asked.
A truly gorgeous venue that massively wowed everyone on the day, and provided a perfect location for our incredible day - a relaxed and fun festival themed wedding. We absolutely had to have a big noisy rock band, which was a first for the venue, and there were concerns over the acoustics and the 95db sound limiter, but Charlotte made sure it would all work out, and they have a great system which ensured it sounded absolutely amazing. The high ceilings and rustic wooden interior actually sounded incredible with no distortion, reverb, or echo, and the clear visual traffic light system worked fantastically to ensure that there wasn't excessive noise pollution for neighbours.
The staff were also fantastic at keeping the venue looking great throughout the day too, never leaving rubbish or empty glasses out for too long, and adjusting the room to suit the proceedings wonderfully. Last minute requests and tasks were handled incredibly well, and helped the day to go perfectly. Staff were super friendly and lovely to all guests, recorded clips of special moments for our video compilation, and were on the dance floor enjoying themselves towards the end of the night, which was delightful to see. An unexpected surprise upon returning the day after was all decorations and extras that were left behind had been tidied up and boxed up for us, making a potentially arduous task with a hangover very light work!
Absolutely 10/10 in every aspect imaginable - a beautiful venue as it comes without needing any extras, incredible value for money, wonderful staff, and truly a perfect setting that made the best day of our lives absolutely heavenly. Thank you so so much Charlotte, Immy, Pav, Mia, Freya, and Mimi for making the best day of our lives even better than we could have imagined, we'll never forget you! -

Marilyn Sent on 30/07/2024Great Scenic Venue!
We recently celebrated our Daughters wedding at Odo’s Barn, and we couldn't be happier with our choice.
First and foremost, the venue itself is stunning. This converted barn has picturesque views which provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the surroundings, and the venue made for some truly memorable photos.
Our coordinator and owner Charlotte was incredibly helpful and accommodating to all of our requests.
On the day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch. The ceremony space was beautifully set up, and the reception area was just as we had envisioned.
One of the highlights was the flexibility and customization options that Odos barn offered. We were able to personalise many aspects of the wedding to fit our vision, including two John Deer tractors which were special to the family which made the day feel uniquely ours.
Overall, Odos Barn exceeded our expectations in every way. If you're looking for a wedding venue that combines beauty, excellent service, and attention to detail, look no further. We highly recommend Odos Barn to any couple looking to have an unforgettable wedding experience.
Thank you, Odos Barn for making our James and Courtney’s wedding day truly special!
