James Sent on 13/09/2025The Exceptional Villiers Barn!
This venue really is exceptional as the title suggests.
Having been engaged for over 10 years and been to many weddings ourselves, my new wife and I decided it was time we tied the knot and it all started when my now wife worked at the venue on behalf of another bride, telling me “You’ve got to see this venue”. We booked a viewing and a week later we had secured our date. Villiers barn was the only venue we viewed and we instantly knew this was going to be ‘our’ wedding venue.
The Day family are such a wonderful and beautiful team, with Jonathan being the face of the operation, do not underestimate the attention to detail and how kind caring his sister and parents are… Juliette is a real diamond of a mum and an integral part of the business and really makes you feel part of the ‘Villiers family’ whenever you see her.
We booked two years in advance and Jonathan was there with us every step of the way. Nothing was ever too much to ask and he was always so understanding and professional with his advice and help. We had his telephone number and email address and asked many questions, that were always answered promptly and professionally.
As for the wedding day itself… WOW! We were simply blown away and made to feel like royalty. Jonathan and the staff at the venue were exceptional throughout.
The bridal preparation room and venue was available from 8:30am to begin getting ready and dressing the tables leaving plenty of time to make sure everything was perfectly put together. There’s plenty of room in the bridal preparation room and even with most of my wives family and friends in there it never felt a squeeze.
Jonathan acted as our host for the day and he often checked in on us, made sure we were well stocked with food and drink, even giving us our own waiter during the drinks reception with our own grazing board of canapés. We honestly never had to ask for anything, as he was on top of every single thing you could think of.
Despite the hot weather, the ceremony room was cool and airy and didn’t feel cramped or like there was too much empty space in the room. We had a singer rather than music and she was able to be in a place where her voice could be heard by all, but not in the way of the photographer.
The music playing throughout the venue on the speakers was always at the right volume and was far more than adequate for the space.
The food was outstanding! From the canapés, to the BBQ main meal, which was cooked using top quality, locally sourced, fresh meats, to the evening food that was served, was beautifully prepared and perfectly cooked. The BBQ did not leave me feeling hugely stuffed or bloated, but left us and our guests completely satisfied afterwards. The desert (brownie and ice cream) was to die for!
As for the evening, it got pretty lively and this was never an issue for Jonathan and the Villiers team. The bar was never overrun, nor overly expensive and the rarely seen NOAM beers were a beer that was popular and enjoyed by many and again, the food, which was the mixed baps and cheese on toast, was delicious and served precisely on time!
We also stayed in the lake lodge on the night of the wedding and what a beautiful setting this is to see in your first night as a married couple. The lodge is warm & cozy and fairly sound proof. Waking up, opening the curtains and enjoying the continental breakfast was the perfect start to married life and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone getting married there. The bed is SO comfortable!
Our advice to anyone considering booking your wedding at this venue, do not hesitate. Go and meet Jonathan and the rest of his family and you’ll get a feeling that is unrivaled at any other wedding venue.
Most wedding venues are about the money, whereas this venue is completely about the experience.
If we could do it again tomorrow, we’d book Villiers Barn in a heartbeat.
Our photographer was Dale Zimmerman who is recommended by the venue and again, we couldn’t recommend him highly enough! His prices were great and we had such a laugh throughout the day with Dale’s completely laid back style of photography. We also had ‘contentbykerrie’ (instagram) as a content creator. Her and Dale worked perfectly together and were a perfect combination of getting the photos and clips we wanted, together with them using their experience as wedding photographers to get the pictures they knew would really help us to remember the beauty of our wedding and the location.
Thanks so much to Jonathan and his family for creating the perfect wedding venue that we will never forget; we honestly can’t thank you enough xVilliers Barn's reply:
Mr & Mrs Nickless!

Anisha Sent on 18/10/2026Our special day, thanks to an exceptional team.
Wow. Where to begin?
Villiers Barn is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we first visited, we fell completely in love with it. We had other viewings booked afterwards, but nothing else came close. Villiers was the benchmark that no other venue compared to and what stood out to us and our families is how special the team make you feel. We never felt like just another couple – instead like a member of their family from the start.
The barn itself is spectacular – the care and attention to detail in the renovation of the barn shines through and the love and passion of the whole team encompasses the entire space, including the bridal suite which was the perfect place to start the day. We were lucky enough to get married outside and it was simply breathtaking. We spent our whole wedding day in a bit of a haze that our special day was being held somewhere so beautiful.
Now onto the team who really do take this venue to a whole new level. Jonathan, Juliet and the team were outstanding from the start. I had some unexpected health news 6 months post booking that resulted in us needing to push back our wedding date. When I called Jonathan in a rather shocked and emotional state of mind, he was so kind and caring and him and Juliet went above and beyond to help us.
In the lead up to our wedding, Jonathan was just amazing – so patient with our endless questions and so organised and efficient. Wedding planning can feel daunting and never ending but we had no doubt that our wedding day would go smoothly with such an amazing team in charge.
The day was perfect – Jonathan really did plan every detail and timing with us, which meant that the day went by so smoothly and stress free. We had a blast and our guests have not stopped talking about what an amazing gem of a venue it is.
Waking up the next morning in the gorgeous honeymoon lodge is a memory we will treasure forever.
Thank you Jonathan, Juliet, Ellen, Becki and the entire Villiers team, for giving us the most magical wedding day we could have wished for.
Love Anisha, Harun and our families xxx

Olivia Sent on 09/10/2026The absolute best of the best!
From the very moment we walked through your doors, we just knew this was where we wanted to get married. There was something so special about the venue that instantly felt right, and meeting Juliette only made that feeling even stronger. She radiates such warmth, kindness and genuine care, and you can truly tell she has the purest heart. 🤍
From the very beginning of our planning journey, you have all made everything feel so easy, calm and effortless. We have felt so looked after every step of the way, and on the day itself, everything went even better than we could ever have imagined. It was honestly the most perfect day, and we are so incredibly grateful to every single one of you who played a part in making it so special.
The food, the staff, the venue, everything is just bloomin perfect, the flow of the venue in particular really made the day just seamless from start to finish, it really was the best day of our lives!
We absolutely adore you all and feel so lucky that we got to celebrate such an important day in our lives with you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything — we will genuinely never forget it. 🤍
We hope this isn’t goodbye, because we’d absolutely love to come back and see you all again… even if it’s just for a cuppa tea! ☕️❤️Villiers Barn's reply:
Oh, this has genuinely melted our hearts! 🥹🤍 Thank you so much for such beautiful words. It was an absolute pleasure to be part of your special day, and we’re so happy that from the moment you walked through our doors, you knew it was the one.
Juliet and the whole team will be so touched by your kind words. We put so much love into what we do, and knowing you felt so looked after throughout your journey and that your day was everything you dreamed of and more means the absolute world to us. 🥹
We’re so grateful you chose us to be part of such a special chapter in your lives, and we couldn’t be happier that you have the most wonderful memories to look back on. It was a joy to celebrate with you both, and we certainly hope this isn’t goodbye either! There will always be a warm welcome waiting for you here, and we’ll pop the kettle on for that cuppa tea! ☕🤍

Absolutely stunning
I honestly cannot go into words how amazing the staff and venue were! Nothing was too big or too small for them. Honestly went above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined.
The staff treat you as if you were family, and honestly I cannot thank them enough for making our day the best day ever.
A beautiful venue is one thing, but honestly to have staff like Villiers Barn have is an absolute gem!!!!
There’s absolutely nothing I can fault. Just a massive thankyou to the Villiers Barn Team!!!!!!

Stephanie Sent on 13/09/2026What a venue!!
Our perfect venue!!
We didn’t need to look any further than Villiers Barn!! It was the first venue we viewed and we cancelled all viewings that followed!
We were warmly greeted by Juliet at our viewing with 2 excitable children in tow, she made us feel at ease and allowed them to release some energy while she talked us through the venue and gave us the tour.
We left with a thoroughly broken down quote that was easy to understand and follow (which I loved, a detail that I found incredibly useful and could tell they wanted to make things as easy as possible for newly engaged couples) they were upfront with the pricing and made it SIMPLE!
We didn’t even need to debate it after, we immediately requested a date and couldn’t wait to secure our booking!!
Leading up to the day the communication was great, we had our final meeting with Rebecca and she reassured us that we were in incredibly safe hands.
We delivered our decor and, again, Rebecca assured me that she had it all in hand and understood my vision.
They cover everything, they understand their couples and they are enthusiastic in ensuring they deliver.
All our guests complimented the venue and were in awe of the grounds, but most importantly, everyone was thrilled with the food and service. Everyone who we have spoken to has commented on the fact that the food was sublime, from the canapés through to the evening hot served food!!
If you are looking for a picturesque, beautiful, barn venue then Villiers is aesthetically perfect, BUT if you want the addition of a team of genuinely lovely people who will look after you and ensure your day runs smoothly, then definitely look no further. It was everything we’d hoped for and more!
Thank you all for making our day perfect!!Villiers Barn's reply:
Thank you for your amazing review Steph! We cannot thank you enough for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback from your special day! Thank you for letting us host such an important day in your lives. Love all the team here -

An exceptional wedding venue
Villiers Barn is an exceptional wedding venue. The venue itself is beautiful, with gorgeous outside green spaces and lake, to the courtyard and stunning barn. We had viewed a few wedding venues before visiting Villiers, but once we visited here we knew this was the one. The Day family care so much about the venue and this was reflected in our experience. They are all so attentive, warm, friendly people, and this is something that really made the difference for us. From Rebecca and Juliet showing us around to Jonathan and Ellen who were so efficient and attentive with the lead up to the wedding and all the details. On the day the service was impeccable. It flowed beautifully and guests complimented all day how brilliant the staff were and Jonathan who was coordinating. Jonathan checked in with us all day and was always on hand to help and ensure everything was how we wanted it to be - he was honestly great. The guests loved the food too, particularly the lamb, eton mess and the stone baked pizzas. Thank you so much again, we had the most special day xx
Villiers Barn's reply:
We cannot thank you enough Katie for leaving such an in-depth review from your wedding day with us, it was one incredible celebration and party and we are so lucky to have hosted such a celebration at our venue. Wishing you both the very best for your future together! -

Sam Sent on 10/09/2026Sensational!!!!
We had the most amazing wedding day and it would not have been possible without the wonderful staff of Villiers Barn. From our first communication to our last dance and packing gifts into the car, every single staff member was so caring, attentive to our needs, professional and made our day so relaxed and fun. The venue and ground are spotlessly clean and just stunning, it literally takes your breath away. And the food is outstanding, we had the bbq option and every guest said it was the best bbq they had ever tasted! Special mention to the Chef!!
Lastly being able to have sunset pictures in the farmers fields was just the icing on the cake! Special thanks to Jonathan,Becky and Juliet for everything you do!!Villiers Barn's reply:
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! 🤍
It means the world to us to hear that you had the most amazing wedding day and that our team helped make it so relaxed, fun and memorable.
And those sunset photos in the fields really are the perfect way to finish a Villiers wedding! 📸🌅
We genuinely loved being part of your day and helping create those memories. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness — and thank you for choosing Villiers Barn! 🤍

Best day EVER!
Villiers barn had us hooked from the moment we arrived, the words “I don’t want to see anything else” says it all!
The Day family are all wonderful and nothing in the lead up to our day and on the day itself was too much. The regular check ins to make sure we were all ok throughout the day kept us as calm as possible on what we can only describe as THE BEST DAY EVER!
We could not be more thankful to the Villiers team and their beautiful venue for everything they have done for us and if we could, we would do it all again in a heartbeat with Villiers always being our place!!
Thank you again Villiers team for making it the happiest day of our lives 🤍Villiers Barn's reply:
What a beautiful review — thank you so much! 🤍 We absolutely loved being part of your wedding journey!
It was such a pleasure getting to know you both and being there throughout the lead-up and on the day itself. Hearing that it was THE BEST DAY EVER means so much to us, and knowing you’d do it all again at Villiers is the biggest compliment! 🥹🤍
Thank you for trusting our family with such a special day. You’ll always be part of the Villiers family, and we hope to see you again soon!
With lots of love, The Villiers Barn Team x -

Neal Sent on 08/09/2026Our special day at a very special venue
Well what can I say but WOW!!
The whole day at Villiers barn was absolutely amazing, getting married outside, canapés and cocktails, the food was the best we’ve ever had at a wedding, that was what our guests said, and they were right it was exceptional.
Dealing with Barry, Jeanette, Rebecca and Jonathan was a pleasure from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble, we were treated like family and made to feel incredibly special.
There was never a queue to get a drink there were more than enough staff to keep everyone served, the evening buffet was truly amazing and is still spoken about when we meet up with guests.
I cannot recommend this venue highly enough, it is exceptional, and we would not change a thing about our day.
The team truly are the most wonderful people.
If you are not sure where to book, make this your choice you will not be disappointed.Villiers Barn's reply:
What an amazing review — thank you so much! 🤍
It honestly means the world to us to hear how much you loved your day! It was such a pleasure looking after you both from start to finish, and we’re so happy you felt like part of the Villiers family.
Knowing you wouldn’t change a thing about your day is the biggest compliment we could receive. Thank you for trusting us with such a special occasion and for recommending Villiers so highly.
With love, The Day family & Villiers Barn team x -
