  The most perfect day

  My partner and I got married at Tithe Barn on 22 02 25 and it was honestly the most perfect day for us.
  
  Right from our first visit to the venue we fell in love with the barn. Add to that how attentive all of the staff have been since we confirmed our booking (right from then all the way through to the days just after the wedding), we could not recommend Tithe Barn and the Cripps & Co staff more.
  
  The ability to use the quote function on the website was a huge plus for us during the venue scouting phase and in the weeks after we had confirmed Tithe Barn as our wedding venue. It's flexibility really did mean there were no hidden costs and it also meant that we went to visit the venue for the first time with a true view of cost (something we found most other venues avoid providing until after you have visited).
  
  Cripps & Co use a portal platform as a one stop shop to keep on top of the wedding quote, timetable for the day, manage supplier information and also as a comms inbox with the staff. This again made our life so so easy, especially with the responses in the comms inbox being so prompt (majority within 24 hours).
  
  We would highly recommend the feast nights as a way to get a real feel for the food that cripps have to offer. We attended in Jan 24 and while the menu wasn't exactly what we were expecting to pick for our own wedding, it gave a large range of what to expect and it was all fantastic. We went home suitably stuffed and it came away with added comfort on how much of a hit the wedding breakfast be (because the food was outstanding). It was a really great evening to say the least and really interesting to sit on a table with other couples that were on the lead up to their day too.
  
  The lead up to the big day felt seamless, with a meeting a few months in advance to confirm everything as well as regular comms whenever needed. A huge positive for us on the day itself was that the team honestly set everything up themselves. While we provided instructions and the required decoration etc, the groom and groomsman only had to drop items off and that was it. This made for a much less stressful morning than I can imagine and know has been the case for family and friends.
  
  We're probably missing a few more points on why someone should absolutely use Tithe Barn as a wedding venue but to summise...you would absolutely not regret it.
  
  Thank you to absolutely all of the staff that were involved. Dan and Laura on the day who were our key contacts during the day and evening respectively, were awesome.

  The most magical place ever!

  We have just had a Christmas wedding here in December and it was the most amazing beautiful place ever! If you are thinking of booking here then please do…you will not be disappointed! Every person I dealt with here were so helpful and supportive, the food and drinks are amazing and the decor and glitter ball are simply stunning! Everything ran so smoothly, things were carried out without me knowing or having to worry about, it was so good. I can’t say enough about Tithe Barn, I’m devastated it’s over haha! Please please book here!

  My wedding 07.11.2024

  We had our perfect day at the tithe barn and u cannot recommend it anymore.
  The food- outstanding!!!! We had the chicken and rump with chimichanga, the gratin dauphinoise was what we chose for sides and again it was outstanding and our guests were very impressed!
  
  We used the barn for our wedding cake as a cheese cake- yes it’s on the pricier side, however it was a great snack for the evening and there was plenty we took home!
  
  The staff were again outstanding. So helpful! Played with our little boy and helped run the day so smooth! We have been to 7 weddings this year alone, and I can honestly say I have never experienced such quality of service than what these guys provided. Everything was just brilliant and smooth I really am thankful!
  I wish I could do it all over again as it was just everything !

  Autumnal Wedding Dream

  We held our October wedding at the Tithe Barn and it was the best decision we ever made. The venue is absolutely stunning - both inside the barn and outside with the views of Bolton Abbey. It looked incredible on the day. The whole team were very helpful and professional from the first time we visited, answering all of our questions and also advising us with decisions. On the day they were just amazing - everything ran so seamlessly that we never had to think about what to do or what was coming next. A particular mention must go to the food which is superb - many of our guests (including those who work in catering) commented that it was the best food they've ever had at a large event. We would highly recommend choosing the Tithe Barn.

  This venue is utterly UNMATCHED! Stunning from start to finish 🥂

  Me and my… HUSBAND, had our day on 31.07.24. We had our dream wedding and this is all thanks to the Tithe Barn staff. They ensured that the day ran so smoothly from start to finish. Our guests have complimented over the last few days just how smooth it went. Throughout the planning process the staff were always quick at responding to any queries we had. They truly are amazing. If we could do the whole day again… we would in a heartbeat. Also a particular thanks/shoutout to Steve who co-ordinated most of the day, he was brilliant and so supportive! The drinks kept flowing, the food was amazing and worth every single penny!! The venue seriously is UNMATCHED!! I will be recommending this venue to any future brides! It truly is one special venue and I will never ever get over the day! Thanks again guys. All our love, Mr & Mrs Duffy x

  Amazing from beginning to end!!!

  Thank you so much to Holly and the Tithe Barn team - our wedding was even more wonderful than we could’ve imagined. From first enquiry all the way through to the day after the event, the team were BRILLIANT, kind, helpful, and had thought of everything to help the day run smoothly and beautifully! The food was amazing, the groomsmen commented on how little they had needed to do before the ceremony as the team had taken care of it all so well! In the run up to the day, I had sent emails asking some questions just to put my mind at ease, and the team were so responsive and patient. Honestly, I cannot recommend highly enough!
  
  We had a pretty big wedding (160people) for a ceremony and reception at the venue and the space was perfect!
  
  Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
  Lots of love, Hannah & Joe

  Unforgettable

  We got married here 14.06.24 it’s was the most magical day from start to finish! The venue looked unreal, the barn itself doesn’t need much to look spectacular as it’s just gorgeous especially if you get the sunshine! Steve who looked after our wedding couldn’t have been more helpful and genuinely wanted to make sure our day went exactly like we wanted which helped all those wedding day nerves.
  
  We appreciate all you did tithe barn
