We can’t get over how perfectly our wedding day went, and that all comes down to the tireless work of The Red Barn team. The way you guys helped with every single little detail on the day, making sure that we had food & drink, and your incredible planning of the run sheet all contributed to the best day of our lives.

The venue on the day looked incredible! We couldn’t get over how perfect everything looked, from day right through to night. Everything was just so seamless and we cannot thank you enough. Also, the fact that you guys helped to set everything up on the tables was such a relief, as it was one less thing we had to worry about. We will be recommending The Red Barn to anyone and everyone that we know.

Thank you for all of your help in dealing with my hundreds of bombarding emails! Thank you for your advice and attention to detail. Thank you for being so easy to approach and for being so lovely to work with which just makes the whole planning process that much more enjoyable. It was awesome to see you there on our day as well.

We would also like to pass on our compliments to the chefs for the quality and quantity of food that was served. Everyone had 10/10 reviews about the food and absolutely loved it! We really loved it too and couldn’t have asked for a better wedding food experience.

Thank you again to you and all of the staff at The Red Barn for making our day even more amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our marriage.

We just wanted to say a huge incredible thank you for everything yesterday but I don’t know if we can quite find the words for how we feel!

Tayla, you were amazing! Right from the emails to and fro, the set up the day before, the practice ceremony to the wedding. You made our day run so smoothly and made us feel both so at ease. Our MC Kris raved about you - both on the night and today. He said you were so helpful and the way you constantly touched base was wicked.

Bridgette, we so enjoyed meeting you and working with you also. You have such an amazing venue and our guests could not stop raving about how awesome the place was. We are so thrilled our arch will be used in future weddings- it deserves to be shown off!

With the dust settling a little bit, I just wanted to say thank-you very much from Dave and myself, for all the assistance you gave Gabi to plan such an awesome day. We had lots of comments about how lovely the setting was, how great the food was - and many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had been to. It was lovely to see you again, and thanks once again for all your great work.

To the amazing staff at The Red Barn,

Thank you, thank you, thank you. We truly had the most amazing day and you guys made the whole process so easy for us. You were organized, efficient, and an absolute dream to work with. Nothing was to bigger ask and we cannot thank you enough. Tayla and Trudi you both played a big part in our special day and made me feel like nothing was an issue. I walked down the isle without a care in the world because of you guys. I hope to visit The Red Barn one day and see all your smiley faces again soon.

Lots of love!
