A dream come true ❤️



It has taken us longer than expected to write this review as neither of us could find the words to describe how perfect our day was! From the moment we arrived at Upton Barn, we knew it was something special, but we never could have imagined just how magical our wedding day would turn out to be.

The team at Upton Barn went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, from coordinating with our vendors to anticipating little details we hadn’t even thought of. Georgia was simply incredible throughout the whole planning process- nothing was too much. Having Georgia and Carla on the day, embracing all the madness and ensuring we all had the best time surpassed all our expectations and I don’t think we will ever be able to thank you enough. The kindness and professionalism the whole team showed us made us feel completely at ease, and it truly felt like they cared as much about our day as we did.

Our guests are still talking about how stunning the venue was and they’re not wrong. It truly is a beautiful place. As the evening rolled around and the lights twinkled across the reception space and the sparklers came out, we looked around and felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude. It was us, it was pure love, and it was exactly how we had always hoped it would feel.

We’ll cherish the memories we made here for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Upton Barn, for giving us the most perfect day imaginable. If you’re looking for a venue that’s as heartfelt as it is beautiful, then this is it!

No where better to get married than Upton!!

My wife and I got married at Upton barn August 2026! From the very first viewing, their attention to detail was second to none. They remember all the small things you dream of for your wedding day and have an ability to make any vision come to life!!

We had Tracey as our wedding co-ordinator, supported by Georgie on the day! And they couldn’t have been better! They were like 2 extra mums, there holding our hand when we needed, guiding us through our day stress free and making sure everything went so smoothly. But most importantly it felt like they were celebrating with us and you could see the genuine care and happiness they had for us as a couple!

We wish we could do the whole day over again, it was the best day of our lives!! One of our massive highlights was having an trad duo play on their new rooftop for our first dance and with the views and sunset, it was the most magical moment of our lives!!

We’ll be back to Upton for some of their open events / feast over fire because it’s very quickly become one of our favourite places to be!!

If you’re thinking of booking Upton for your wedding day, our only advice is to do it!

Lots of love
Niamh and Tan xxxx

Absolutely Stunning!

We were truly spoilt rotten with Upton Barn. From the moment we booked with them, they were thorough and attentive. If we reached out for help, they would immediately respond with anything we needed. On the day, the staff made sure it all ran smoothly. Even when the bustle on my dress broke, they rushed to pin it up so I could get back to dancing. The venue itself is beautiful and the walled garden is just stunning. I couldn’t have asked for a better day!

Absolutely perfect!

From the moment we viewed Upton Barn 18 months ago to our wedding day last week, everything has been incredible. The team at Upton are wonderful and a real credit to the venue. They are friendly, responsive, knowledgeable and organised - a true delight to work with. We owe a massive thank you in particular to Georgia who coordinated our day to perfection.

We were lucky enough to get married in the beautiful Walled Garden and then had reception drinks on their new terrace overlooking the Devon countryside. We then moved indoors for our wedding breakfast and evening party, which are held in separate rooms. Everything on the day flowed seamlessly and each area/room is stunning in its own right.

We couldn't have asked for a better venue to host our wedding and would 100% recommend it to anyone else thinking about getting married at Upton Barn.

Still not over how amazing this place is.

Where do we even begin? We got married at Upton Barn & Walled Garden on 18th July 2026, and it was quite simply the most perfect day of our lives.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning. We were fortunate enough to have our ceremony outside in the beautiful sunshine, and the gardens created the most incredible backdrop for our wedding. Every part of the venue is immaculate and beautifully maintained.
What really made the day unforgettable, however, was the incredible team. A special thank you to Tracey and Georgina, who went above and beyond from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire planning process and on the day itself. Their attention to detail, organisation and genuine care meant we could relax and enjoy every single moment knowing everything was in safe hands.
The whole day ran seamlessly, and so many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and how friendly and professional all of the staff were.
If you're looking for a wedding venue that combines breathtaking surroundings with exceptional service, look no further than Upton Barn & Walled Garden. We couldn't have wished for a more perfect place to celebrate our wedding, and we'll cherish the memories forever.
Thank you to everyone at Upton Barn & Walled Garden for giving us the most incredible day. It truly exceeded every expectation, and we would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.

The most incredible day of our lives

We cannot recommend Upton Barn enough if you are considering it as your wedding venue!! From the get go the team were so responsive to everything single question that I had, always replying to my never ending emails. The final planning meeting happened well in advance so it allows you time to organise those final few things that you may not have thought about. I was a typical DIY bride and Georgia (our wedding coordinator) pulled of our vision perfectly!
Now for the wedding day itself…. EVERYTHING was taken care of. The team ensure that you literally do not lift a finger. You can just tell that everybody at Upton cares about their jobs and cares about you having the best wedding day ever! The whole day was seamless and you don’t have to worry about packing anything away as they just do it all in the background without you even noticing.
I feel that what you pay is worth its weight in gold for just the most magical day of your lives!
Please please book Upton so you can see the magic unfold for yourselves, you will not be disappointed!!

Couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else!

From the moment we first viewed Upton Barn, we knew we’d found our venue. It’s absolutely stunning and somehow manages to be both rustic and modern at the same time. Every part of it is beautiful, and the newer spaces in The Foundry just make it even more special. We honestly couldn’t picture ourselves getting married anywhere else.

The team at Upton Barn are quite simply outstanding. From the months leading up to the wedding right through to the very last song, we felt completely looked after. Every question was answered, every little detail was thought about and nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

A huge, huge thank you has to go to Georgia Mears our wedding coordinator. She is honestly incredible at what she does and deserves so much recognition. She was calm, organised, reassuring and just seemed to have absolutely everything under control at all times. In the lead up to the wedding she was always there to answer questions and put our minds at ease, and on the day she worked so hard behind the scenes to make sure everything ran perfectly. We never once had to worry about what was happening next because we knew Georgia had it covered. She is an absolute credit to Upton Barn and we honestly can’t thank her enough for everything she did to make our day so special.

The day itself couldn’t have run more smoothly. From getting ready in The Paddock, to our ceremony in the Walled Garden, drinks on the rooftop, the wedding breakfast and then dancing the night away, every transition was effortless. We didn’t have to think about a single thing - we were just able to be completely present and enjoy every moment with our family and friends.

One of the biggest compliments we kept hearing from our guests was how incredibly well organised everything was. So many people commented on how smoothly the day flowed, how attentive the team were and just how much everyone behind the scenes had everything under control. It genuinely felt like such a well-oiled machine, but in a way that was warm, personal and never felt robotic.

We honestly had the most magical day, and so much of that is down to the incredible team at Upton Barn. Thank you for creating such a beautiful venue, for caring so much about every couple that gets married there, and for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever. If we could do it all again tomorrow, we’d choose Upton Barn every single time 🤍🤍🤍

Upton Heroes! 🙌

We had our wedding at Upton on Friday and it was absolutely incredible! We worked with Georgia from the very start, however, every single member of the team we met and worked with were brilliant!
From brilliant communication, to decor placement and everything in between, it was all just PERFECT!
The venue is absolutely stunning and the new parts were just an added bonus. We fell in love with the venue straight away.
The Paddock where you can get ready is a highlight. I had a team of 10 bridesmaids, my mum and 4 hair and makeup artist and the room was perfect, with plenty of space. We never once struggled and had the most relaxing morning.
The team at Upton bought my vision to LIFE 😍 everything was exactly how I wanted (I sent several documents on what I like and was a pain) but what the team done for us was absolutely incredible.
Georgia, you were a pleasure to work with! You made our day go so smoothly, we’re so professional but also felt like a friend throughout. I’m actually so upset now it’s over& we don’t get to speak anymore 😂
I would get married here over and over again and forever grateful we chose this incredible venue.
Thank you all xx

Get married at Upton Barn!

We got married at Upton Barn in the middle of May 2026 and it was amazing! Tracey and Georgia had been on hand for months, if not longer, answering all our questions incredibly quickly and being a constant source of support. And then on the day, no problem or question was too big, Tracey and Georgia are the most calming, lovely presence on your big day. The venue itself is stunning, we hardly dressed it and it didn't need it at all. We were determined to have an outdoor wedding and we weren't sure given the weather the day before had been terrible. We were told we could make a last minute call and go inside if we needed to.
Me and Joe didn't think about anything else other than having the best time, all day. It was beautiful!! Thank you so much :)

Wedding 4th May 2026

We got married at Upton a couple of weeks ago and honestly the day was absolutely amazing! Upton were brilliant from day one, always there when you needed them/had a query and their attention to detail throughout, particularly the final planning meeting was superb! Georgia coordinated our day and everything went better than we could have asked for. If there was anything that didn’t go to plan then we had no idea! It was our dream day and our experience with Upton made that 1000x more amazing so thank you so much!

How soon until we can renew our vows, because we’re desperate to come back!

I cannot recommend Upton Barn & Walled Garden highly enough. From our very first enquiry all the way through until the Wedding Day itself the team were responsive, professional, calming and just all around lovely!

Our co-ordinator was Georgia and she was absolutely wonderful, we adored her and she helped make what could be a stressful process feel very calm and fun to plan!

Neither of us could believe how perfect the day was, everything was organised while still allowing space for the day to feel natural and relaxed. The entire team were so kind and supportive. We honestly can’t say enough good things!

Our biggest problem is… we had such a perfect day that we genuinely wish we could renew our vows here every single year!

Thank you so much guys, you are truly the best 🤍

Georgia is the best

I cannot recommend Upton Barn enough. The day was everything we had dreamed of and so much more. From the initial budgeting tool, to viewing the beautiful grounds, to the planning meetings and then the big day; it was entirely seamless. At heart of our incredible day was Georgia who was an absolute star from start to finish. I wish I could go back and do it all again.

Perfect Venue!

Upton were incredible from start to finish.
They were so friendly at our initial viewing, took so much time to show us round, talk to us about what was possible and let us start to imagine our day! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, and they keep on adding new spaces. We managed to get married in the walled garden which is stunning and a total dream. The various indoor spaces, and new outdoor kitchen and roof top terrace were also so perfect for our day.
They are super easy to contact and quick to respond to my (many) questions running up to the day. We had a very thorough pre-wedding meeting to run through all the logistics which helped the day run incredibly smoothly.
On the day we had a dedicated wedding coordinator Georgia, and she was amazing. She let the day run so smoothly and helped us and other suppliers adjust when we were running slightly behind. They decorated the venue exactly as we had asked for and it looked absolutely gorgeous.
All of our suppliers commented on how much they love working with Upton and how organised they are, and it's clear it works so well.
They even made a new cocktail for us for our drinks reception that we requested, which went down a treat - just an example of how flexible they are. They are very up front with their pricing, and send an invoice on when payments are expected once you select a date with them.

We could not have asked for a better venue or people to run our day. We trusted them completely, and it is clear they value their role so much. I would recommend them to anyone.

Perfect venue!

What a day!! Our wedding at Upton Barn exceeded all expectations. Throughout the course of the day Georgia, Tracy and the rest of the team helped coordinate the best day we could have asked for. From start to finish, it was as relaxing as a wedding can be - Georgia even helped our bridesmaids do some deep breathing before walking down the aisle! All of our guests have repeatedly told us how amazing Upton was and how they wish they can go back! Thank you for making our day even more special🤍

Would recommend without hesitation!

There are simply not enough stars for how highly we would rate Upton Barn. Firstly the venue is beautiful – everything is designed thoughtfully and to an extremely high standard. The physical premises is stunning and also flexible, with plenty of inside and outside spaces that could cater to any style of wedding. But it is the team at Upton who really make the experience unforgettable. From day 1 to the wedding day they are professional, attentive, organised and kind. Nothing is too much trouble and no question too big or small – their unwavering support and dedication to help us create the vision for our wedding was truly exceptional. Georgia, our incredible coordinator, went above and beyond to look after us and make sure our wedding day was perfect. We recommend Upton Barn and their whole team unreservedly.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
