Lia Sent on 11/12/2025Dream venue, dream team - perfect from start to finish
Pangdean is a beautiful wedding venue just outside of Brighton that leaves you wanting for nothing. I literally cannot think of a single thing they could have done to improve our experience, from start to finish.
Nicky and her team are phenomenal. So obviously experts at what they do - you can tell in every interaction that they know what they are doing and that they have incredibly high standards for their events.
There is so much I could say about Pangdean, but if you’re considering whether they are right for you and your wedding, the highlights are:
- You don’t need a wedding planner. Theirs event planning team is second to none and considers everything
- You’ll fall in love with the place on your first visit. No matter the season, the barn is as beautiful as the garden and you can’t help but to adore it. Our first site visit they made us feel so welcome with no expectation or pressure that we would book with them, just an incredibly warm and informative visit
- They cater in-house, and the meal they prepared was one of the most delicious dinners I have ever eaten. We didn’t do a tasting (though I’m sure they would have arranged one if we had asked!) and we were so right to trust their catering team
- Their pay bar is fully stocked and reasonably priced
- The team’s communication is phenomenal - none of my questions went unanswered throughout the entire process
- Their organization, professionalism, flexibility and teamwork on the night was second to none. We wanted for nothing all night - my glass was never empty, there was always someone nearby who I could ask any question, yet no one was ever in the way and the whole team moved seamlessly across the space
- They organized decor in house and we didn’t have to lift a finger, and the place looked stunning. If you’re a couple that want a decor team you can trust to make the space look gorgeous without needing to spend ages in meetings about linens and cutlery and decor, Pangdean is for you
- They are incredibly competitively priced, and their packages are easily customizable. They were happy to curate an event plan that fit within our budget and didn’t cut corners on what mattered to us. The pricing structure is clear, transparent, sensible and flexible
I could go on. But this review is far too long! All in all, the sense I got from Pangdean is whether you’re a bride who needs to know every detail of every candle and centerpiece, or you’re someone who would rather just rock up and trust the team to design and cater you the most beautiful wedding you could imagine, this place is for you and the team will do everything they can to meet your needs.Pangdean Old Barn's reply:
Oh beautiful Lia and Ollie - thank you. So relaxed and cool about everything and centered on what mattered to you. We are glad it was everything and more you had dreamed of. The all vegan food really was quite something, though we say so ourselves 😉 Happy Christmas to you both and we hope you get to relax after two massive celebrations! Do keep in touch 💛💚💛

What a fantastic place and team
Pangdean was the perfect place for us and the team were absolutely fantastic to work with in planning our day. The venue and the different spaces are beautiful, but what really stands out is the willingness to work together and be creative to make a vision become a reality. We had quite specific (if changing) food requests, wanted a pétanque terrain, and had grand ideas for designing the barn with endless foliage and candles. All of these things were received not as a problem but as something to work together to bring to life, and to help execute as well as possible. the food was really fantastic. The team were genuinely really a joy to work with and we could not recommend Pangdean more.
Pangdean Old Barn's reply:
Gosh thanks Martha. It really was a special and unique wedding with thought and love in abundance. It was our pleasure. We hope to see you both again and do keep in touch. ❤❤ -

Jessica Sent on 23/11/2025Superb venue!
We had such an excellent wedding day at Pangdean. All the guests commented on how amazing the venue was, including the delicious food and attentive staff. We were blown away by their attention to detail and smooth running of the day, as well as how gorgeous our winter wedding looked. They offered great advice but also let us be free to customise our wedding how we wanted to. We felt very relaxed on the day and were free to just enjoy ourselves, as we trusted they had it all in hand. Thoroughly recommend!!Pangdean Old Barn's reply:
Hi Will and Jess. It was absolutely our pleasure and what a lovely family and bunch of friends you have. ❤️❤️ -

Amy Sent on 24/08/2025The most magical wedding venue!
We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue for our wedding. From start to finish, Nicky, Sarah, Bryony and Krysia were incredible – friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day unforgettable. Pangdean is absolutely beautiful, it has so much character and so many of our guests commented on how stunning it looked. To be able to get married outside under an apple tree with horses in the background was an absolute dream.
The food was exceptional - the portions are generous and there is so much flexibility on menu choice that you can make it personal to you. Nothing was ever too much trouble – Nicky, Sarah, Bryony and Krysia are so attentive and organised, it really is remarkable the amount of effort they put in.
What really stood out to us was the personal touch. We felt supported throughout the whole planning process, and on the day itself, everything flowed so smoothly that we were able to enjoy ourselves and take it all in.
We are already looking forward to coming back for the next Taste of Pangdean and reliving a little bit of the magic again!! We would wholeheartedly recommend Pangdean to any couple looking for somewhere truly special. Thank you so much Nicky, Sarah, Bryony and Krysia - you made our wedding dreams come true and gave us a day more magical than we could ever have imagined ✨Pangdean Old Barn's reply:
Ah thanks Amy and Sean - missing our chats already!
See you at TOP soon and do send us some more photos as we love reliving your day. Oh and what a party 😉

Sarah and her team are just phenomenal. From start to finish they totally got us and what we were after and couldn't have been more helpful. In the organisation phase they listened to all our ideas, trialling new recipes to celebrate my heritage and making it really easy for us to bring our own quirks. On the day, every single member of staff was so kind and happy to be there, it's a slick operation! I don't know how but they managed to maintain order whilst still being flexible, letting the day progress naturally with a few nudges here and there. When it came to picking up our stuff the next day, everything had been prepped for a quick collection, they think of everything. Price wise it's on a par with most of the venues we looked at in our area. I know we could have done something DIY cheaper but honestly just quality of the food and the support from the staff was worth every single penny, never mind the stunning location! As a bride I felt so looked after and was able to really enjoy my day without worrying about details. Thank you Pangdean!Pangdean Old Barn's reply:
Thank you for your very kind words - we really appreciate the thought. What lovely friends and family you have too Max and Will - they made the day so full of love and laughs. ❤️❤️
See you both soon, we hope x -

Rach Sent on 19/08/2025Absolute perfection
Last month, we had the absolute delight of getting married at Pangdean Barn. I couldn't recommend this venue more - we had the best experience and SO many comments from our guests on the lovely, helpful and 'on it' staff, the incredible venue/location and the unbelievably good food (highlight - homemade bread!). One of our guests said it was the best wedding he'd ever been to, including his own!
Thank you to Nicky, Sarah, Bryony and Krysha for an unforgettable experience - you were so accomodating, reassuring, flexible and super responsive. I would confidently recommend Pangdean to anyone look for a wedding venue. 10/10. If only we could do it every year!
Rachael & Max
