Last update: June 2026

The Lakeside at Wild Berry Farm is an exclusive-use outdoor wedding venue set within a breathtaking private estate in the North Bedfordshire countryside. Created for couples who want the freedom to design a wedding that feels entirely their own, The Lakeside combines the flexibility of a marquee wedding with the hospitality, infrastructure and support of an established venue.

Surrounded by open meadows, tranquil water and the natural beauty of a 350-acre farm estate, The Lakeside offers a spectacular setting for relaxed, beautiful celebrations immersed in nature.

Facilities & Capacity

Set within a dedicated three-acre lakeside meadow on the edge of an expansive private lake, The Lakeside provides a beautiful blank canvas for your celebration. Whether you imagine an elegant sailcloth marquee, relaxed stretch tent or statement tipi, the space can be tailored to your vision with flexibility on both style and scale.

The venue welcomes celebrations from 70–200 guests and offers four-day exclusive hire, giving you time to build, style and enjoy your wedding without feeling rushed - transforming your celebration into a full experience rather than a single day.

While The Lakeside is not licensed for legal ceremonies, couples are welcome to host meaningful celebrant-led ceremonies overlooking the lake. The freedom to choose your own ceremony style allows each celebration to feel deeply personal and entirely unique.

Beyond the lakeside setting, the wider estate offers woodland, open countryside and endless opportunities for unforgettable photography.

Services Offered

While The Lakeside offers creative freedom, it is far from dry hire.

Every wedding is supported by an experienced in-house team who provide planning guidance throughout the journey and professional coordination on the day itself, allowing you to enjoy creating something personal without the stress of managing the details.

Food and drink are delivered by Wild Berry Farm’s multi-award-winning gastropub, The Sun Inn, recognised by The Good Food Guide and The Times amongst many others. Working alongside the venue’s Head Chef, couples can create bespoke menus and hospitality experiences designed around their celebration.

Luxury accommodation is available, including the beautifully appointed duplex bridal suite within the thatched inn - complete with a freestanding copper roll-top bath and separate sitting room, ideal for getting ready and retiring to at the end of the night. For those wishing to make a full wedding weekend of their celebration, the inn also offers the opportunity to host relaxed pre-wedding dinners, welcome drinks and post-wedding brunches, creating more time to gather and celebrate with family and friends.

  • Four-day exclusive venue hire

Our Dream Wedding at The Lakeside at Wild Berry Farm

Just over two years ago, we visited the Lakeside by Wild Berry Farm, and honestly, it was love at first sight. We feel so incredibly lucky that we happened to visit on a day when another wedding was taking place because seeing the venue come alive just sealed the deal for us.

We were warmly greeted by Hannah from Fields and Festoons, whose genuine love and passion for the venue was absolutely infectious. She didn't need to do much selling because the venue just spoke for itself. The gorgeous combination of open fields, that beautiful lake, and the lovely marquees ticked every single box on our must have list. But honestly, what we loved most was finding people who cared about our wedding as much as we did. That meant absolutely everything to us.

Working with all the local vendors was like watching a little family come together. Everyone was so lovely and genuinely invested in making our day absolutely perfect. The love and care from everyone involved was overwhelming in the best possible way.

Our wedding day was everything we had dreamed of and so much more. We're still floating on cloud nine! The swans emerged from the lake to make their VIP guest appearance. The staff from The Sun Inn were absolutely phenomenal, so warm, friendly, and looked after everyone brilliantly. The whole atmosphere was filled with so much love and joy.

We cannot express enough gratitude to our photographer and wedding planner, who were truly the backbone of our entire celebration. Their incredible organisation, commitment, and ability to keep us calm and relaxed throughout the day will be appreciated for the rest of our lives. They brought our vision to life with such incredible attention to detail and genuine care. You could feel the love they put into everything.

Every single element was absolutely perfect. The venue, the team, the vendors, the setting, everything came together in the most magical way possible. Lakeside by Wild Berry Farm and the entire team created the most special, love filled day of our lives.

We cannot recommend The Lakeside by Wild Berry highly enough - it is worth EVERY penny!

A day full of Love and the prefect venue.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue. The Lakeside at Wild berry Farm was everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we pulled up and saw the lake in the sun, we just knew this was the venue. The Fields and the lake view throughout the ceremony was breath-taking and relaxing throughout the day for the guests.
The whole vibe of the day was peaceful, natural, and totally romantic, just what we wanted. We had our ceremony right in front of the lake and it was truly perfect. Later, we ate and danced with fairy lights strung up around the tipis with the night sky coming in and it was just beautiful.
The team there were amazing. Super friendly from the start to end, always on hand, and genuinely cared about making the day special for us. They gave us so much freedom to make the space our own, which made everything feel personal. A special thanks to Hannah would made the process so easy, fun and relaxing, no ask was too big. It truly topped off an amazing venue, to also have such good support throughout the whole two years we had booked.
Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the setting was — and how good the food was too!
If you’re looking for a venue that’s laid-back but stunning, with a team that listens and supports you, the lakeside at Wild berry Farm is it. We’ll be forever grateful for the memories we made there.

The most perfect backdrop to a perfect day!

We couldn't be happier with our choice to have our wedding celebrations at the Lakeside at Wildberry Farm.
From the initial site visits, flexibility with the offering, pre wedding meetings and on the day management Hannah and Rebecca were just fantastic in every way possible - definitely recommend to all couples out there!

Amazing venue and incredible team

We couldn’t recommend Wildberry Farm and their team highly enough! We got married in May, and Hannah and the team were simply amazing.

From start to finish, they were incredibly responsive and patient, always taking the time to understand our ideas and vision and translate it into something beautiful.

Pete and the team at The Sun went above and beyond, working with our ideas to create the most amazing menu. Where possible Pete used seasonal, local ingredients including asparagus from the neighbouring field!! Pete also did a fantastic job behind the bar, whipping up the most delicious cocktails which our guests LOVED.

On the day itself, the coordination was flawless. Everyone worked together to make sure everything went off without a hitch, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy our special day. Hannah is an absolute boss and had everything sorted perfectly. We can’t thank you enough.

We were fortunate enough to stay in the suite at the Sun which was absolutely beautiful. If you can, book it - it’s incredible and (again) the team are just fantastic and couldn’t have done more for us.

We couldn’t have honestly asked for anything more! Thank you x

Amazing venue giving us the personal touch on our wedding day!

Where do we start in reviewing our experience with The Lakeside team ... We were set on a wedding that felt super personal and wasn't a 'conveyor belt' wedding. The Lakeside got our vision completely and made the day so special to us!

Hannah was sensational from start to finish. She met with us regularly guiding us through the process, coordinated with all the suppliers to ensure all went to plan, had a sewing kit to hand when my wedding dress broke and even dropped us back at our hotel at the end of the night!

The day was stress free and seamless for us and managing 150 guest food orders and bar service is no mean feat!

We used the food at The Sun and were not let down! They provided us with a completely bespoke menu at a really reasonable price. All the guests commented on how amazing the food was - meat filled pies and plenty of canapes. No one went hungry!

All in all - a wedding that all enjoyed. Especially us. Thank you!

The perfect lakeside venue

We are so unbelievably pleased we chose The Lakeside at Wild Berry Farm for our wedding venue. The venue is just perfect. We will never forgot the sunset over the lake, the festoon lights round the field, the jetty, the beautiful marquee and everything in between. You would be our choice every time.

It's hard to put into words just how grateful we are for Hannah and the team and what you all did to make our wedding quite literally the best day of our lives. Hannah is everything and more; she is the wedding coordinator of dreams. Thank you for saying 'yes!' to pretty much everything we wanted. You really did go above and beyond to make the day look unique to us. Thank you for your endless patience every time we changed our minds about food, table plans and guest lists.

We will miss the weekend WhatsApp messages helping us choose wines and Mr and Mrs cocktail recipes and the evening planning meetings at the Sun (our new favourite pub and highly recommended wedding caterer - Pete at the Sun, you deserve a 5 star review of your own!). Ultimately, thank you for making planning our wedding a genuinely enjoyable experience, Hannah and everyone at the venue.

Even though the dancing’s done, we’re still raving about the Lakeside at Wildberry Farm

We were very fortunate to know of the Lakeside at Wildberry Farm in its early days, with family living in close proximity to the venue. However what we could never have imagined is how stunningly beautiful the venue could look, how wonderful everyone involved with the Lakeside are and how determined everyone is to deliver the best wedding day you could imagine.

In terms of planning and coordinating the day, JJ and Laura are open to pretty much any idea you can put to them and wholly accommodative where they can be. The venue comes with a wedding coordinator, Hannah from Field and Festoons, who is absolutely brilliant in bringing your ideas out and building them into a wedding day even better than you could have imagined. We could not have done any of this without her and will forever be grateful for her creativity, patience and insight.

The Lakeside is also linked with the Sun Inn at Felmersham, who provide the catering services including all the food and bar supplies. We have got to know the people at the Sun really well and their food is simply outstanding. Our guests waxed lyrical for weeks after our wedding day about how good the food was, while the bar service was flawless. I also had the pleasure of staying at the Sun the night before our wedding with my groomsmen. Once again, we couldn’t have received better care by the attentive staff, while the accommodation itself is really high class and luxurious, with all amenities and furnishings of the highest standard.

Another preferred supplier is tent provider FM Tents - whose beautiful structures and furniture formed the centre piece for the aesthetic of our day. They were also largely un-phased when we told them we were looking to create a glamping village, in which around 50 of our guests stayed overnight (including us of course!)

We couldn’t have wished for a better wedding day or a better venue. The setting and scenery itself creates a stunning setting for an outdoor wedding, while it is all the people connected with the Lakeside at Wildberry Farm that really makes for a wonderful experience and one that we will never forget.

A wonderful day

We had our wedding day at The Lakeside in August 2021 and I honestly wish we could do it all over again. The venue hadn’t actually opened for weddings yet but the team took everything in their stride when we asked if we could hold our wedding with them with only 6 weeks to plan it!

Nothing was too much to ask for and the team couldn’t do enough to make the day perfect for us. They go above and beyond and make the whole experience really personal with special little touches. The whole day did exceed all expectations and everything came together perfectly! It really was the best day and would not have been possible without all of there hard work.

Ourselves and all of our guests had a wonderful time and we couldn’t praise the venue enough. We live locally and it will always be a special place to us.

Thank you so much again!

Absolutely beautiful venue. Ideal for an outside summer wedding, it fit our vision for what we wanted on the day perfectly. The team were fantastic from the initial communication and questions, support throughout the planning process (Hannah is so knowledgeable) and then faultless on the day itself including set up and take down. What you get is incredible value for money and they burden some of the stress of wedding planning so it became an enjoyable process. We had a magical day, all our guests enjoyed themselves and we would do it all again if we could. Some of services that really stood out for us were the level of communication, the check ins to make sure we had considered everything (and there were lots of details that we just hadn't thought about), the support with set up and the fact that Hannah will liaise directly with the suppliers on your behalf and the actual wedding package itself. The wedding package on paper does not do it justice - the views and the space speaks for itself but at nighttime it's taken to a whole other level which was magical. And on a side note I've never come across such incredible toilets! Thank you for a fantadtic day!
