The Out Barn

We are a Bride & Groom left absolutely heart broken 💔😓

FUTURE BRIDES PLEASE PLEASE KEEP YOUR CARDS SAFTYLY LOCKED AWAY!!

After years & years of saving and planning for the most perfect day. Which it was, before we discovered the following day that a large amount of money was stolen from inside our cards. Some cards lost, tampered with and missing envelops.
Our wedding day has now been left with a dark cloud over it.

To think someone would be so low to steal off some newlyweds whilst they celebrate with family and friends at their reception.

This eleged someone was a staff member from behind the bar.
This said staff member after being seen by several guests admitted to removing the box of cards/gifts and taking them upstairs to the staffroom to "keep safe" this is something the venue doesn't usually do. She told management I (the bride) instructed her too. LIES!!! Where conveniently there are no CCTV.
This same staff member has also been reported missing for over half an hour around the same time the card box was removed.

Again this staff member was happily bragging about leaving The Outbarn soon and moving away. (Prodominatly on our expense it seems)

The Outbarn has confirmed this staff member has admitted to taking the cards and going missing for this length of time. But despite this the venue deny responsibility, and not one apology to us for ruining what should of been a perfect day to remember.

I understand although everything adds up to this staff member looking like she's definitely guilty of theft. There is no footage proof that the police can go ahead and use to take this crime any further.

An apology and reassurance from the venue management would of maybe helped us put a line though this dreadful offence.
But nothing! We thought we found the most amazing venue for our dream wedding, staff on first impressions seemed friendly and helpful. Couldn't of been more wrong.

We have paid them their money, had our wedding. Why should they care about us now 😓 

Wow, just wow! We had our wedding at the Out Barn on Saturday and it exceeded every single one of our expectations!! From our initial visit with Ruth and Henry, right through to collecting our belongings this morning, the whole team at the Out Barn have been amazing!
Ruth & Henry thank you so much for looking after us from day one- making us feel so welcome and reassured at all stages.
Emma- dealing with you has been a pleasure. After endless emails (mostly from me) you ensured our day went to plan. Every detail was covered, and you couldn’t have done any more for us!
Alice- thank you for running our day for us. Again, you went over and above to ensure we were kept fully updated throughout the day and made sure everything ran on time. As a bride it was so lovely to have somebody as helpful as you on hand to support! So again, thank you so much.
Finally a thank you to Chris and the bar staff for ensuring our guests were fed and watered throughout!
Please please do not hesitate in booking your special day at the Out Barn- it was a day we will never ever forget!!

Simon and I just wanted to say a HUGE, HUGE thank you to you all for hosting our event yesterday. We all had a fabulous day and you were all marvelous!

Everyone commented on how amazing the food was so please can you pass on our thanks to Jane too as the food really was delicious.

A big thanks to Ruth who has been a great help all the way through (and has dealt with my fussing perfectly) and a enormous thanks to Emma for all you help, effort and assistance on the day, you really did make everything feel so easy and allowed us all to have a great time.

Thank you too to all the wider team who helped on the day.

Thank you again and all the best for the future, I will have no hesitation in recommending you and booking you again.

What an amazing venue! We got married here at the beginning of October and it was absolutely stunning. We worked with Henry and Emma who made the whole process easy and personal. Thank you for giving us the perfect day

Hands down the best wedding venue ever!!! Beautiful place, all the staff couldn't have done any more for us from the day we booked with Ruth and Henry to the end of our day with Emma and all the bar staff. Honestly if you're thinking of booking this place just do it, you will have the best day ever!!

Thank you so much for everything you did to make Emma & Edi's wedding day so special and fabulous on 15th June 2019. From our first visit in January 2018, we knew we were in safe hands. With so many first time visits to Lancashire, I knew The Out Barn was the perfect venue to create a wonderful impression of our beautiful part of the country. It was a pleasure to work with all of you and I enjoyed every moment of organising the day, which was delivered in a lovely, welcoming, calm atmosphere with personal love and care. I look forward to enjoying future events at The Out Barn, it will always hold a special place for us all.

Thank you for your help, guidance and hospitality from start to finish. Our Wedding day at The Out Barn was perfect thanks to your attention and to detail and organisation. We felt at ease from the moment we met you, your team are so friendly and accommodating. Thank you answering all of our many questions and ensuring that we had the best day of our lives! We are hugely grateful for everything you did for us.

Honestly the most perfect wedding venue I’ve ever seen. We got married here 21.04.19 and the day went perfectly without hitch. Perfect venue, beautiful scenery, every detail taken care of, friendly staff. If you’re considering this for a wedding venue then you need to book it because nowhere else compares.

We had a wonderful day at The Out Barn and all your hard work made it go without hitch. Your attention to detail is second to none! The Out Barn is a spectacular venue and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to other couples!

Wow... What a truly stunning & unique venue in a beautiful setting. We cannot recommend them highly enough. Henry, Ruth, James & all of the staff are absolutely wonderful - so friendly & helpful. All queries in the run up to the day are answered straight away and on the day itself they cannot do enough to help out. The day ran so smoothly and there was a truly relaxed atmosphere which allowed us to enjoy our day - this was all thanks to them. The Barn is beautiful both indoors and out - in fact it tipped it down for most of our day but that did not matter as the inside is just as great. We had the best day of our lives and I really don't know why anybody would consider any other venue in Lancashire

We had our wedding at the Out Barn a few weeks ago and it was the most unreal day. Everything went so perfectly and it’s credit to Henry and his team, who were just brilliant to deal with through the whole process. Everything was dealt with so efficiently and they were always flexible and open to hearing about our ideas, and helping them come to life. We got so many compliments on the venue and it’s settings which are absolutely beautiful, and I’m so glad we chose to have our wedding here. I’m just upset we don’t have an excuse to come back now! Thank you so much for helping make our day so special

We had our wedding at the Out Barn on a very wet and rainy Bank holiday Sunday. The venue itself was PERFECT. This venue definitely shouldn’t just be used in summer, when it’s darker, the Outbarn inside looks so bright and having everyone in the main room was great. The staff were fantastic, especially Ruth and Henry who did everything they could to make sure our day would be perfect.
The separate room with the log burner was fantastic for some of our older guests to relax towards the end of the night.
So many gorgeous pictures have already emerged and all our guests couldn’t believe how fantastic the venue was. A hidden gem.
Thank you so much for making our day so fantastic

Thank you so much for our Wedding, everything went so smoothly on the day and all your advice worked perfectly! The Out Barn is truly a special venue and we are so delighted with everything it offered to our wedding!

We got married on 4th August 2018 and it was the most magical day of our lives. The scenery, venue, friendly staff, the dairy farm accommodation, room decorations and the personal touch that can only come from a family run business where everyone who works there is passionate about making your day amazing. Best decision to choose the Out Barn and I would recommend it to anyone. We haven’t had our professional photographs back yet as it was only last weekend but I have attached one that one of our guests took. I am still on a high and cannot thank them enough!!
