Myself and my husband viewed a number of different venues and this one just stood out to us as the most beautiful, in a gorgeous location. Joanna was fabulous and always on hand for any questions. We decorated the barn to our taste and it looked stunning. Everything was perfect. Thank you.

We had our wedding here on 20/07/2024 and cannot put into words what an incredible venue Elms Barn is. We had the perfect day and Elms Barn played a big part in making it this way. Ruth was incredible from start to finish! She was so helpful to us throughout the planning process - always available to give tips, advice and guidance. Ruth is beyond approachable and friendly and never makes you feel like you are being a nuisance (even when it’s just back and forth about how much tequila rose to be stocked behind the bar). Despite all of the other weddings she had - Ruth was always quick to respond to emails. Ruth was only meant to stay until just after our wedding breakfast, as Sarah was actually our on the day coordinator; however, the reality was that she left hours after this and when asked why she was still there she just said “I’m having a really good time” - you can tell that this is not just a job for Ruth but a passion and something that she really enjoys and loves and it really does show. Sarah, our on the day co-ordinator, was amazing. We had a meeting with her the day before and it was clear that she’d already spent time coming to grips with our wedding, as she already knew most of the details and it was just the case of nailing down on the finer details. Even on the day Sarah was trying to make us have the best day / experience possible and as we arrived back from our ceremony, she was there ready with the suggestion of instead of having the alpacas we’d hired for entertainment being there for when guests arrived - for us to walk round leading them to our guests, which was a brilliant suggestion and worked amazingly. Sarah, Ruth and the team were on hand the whole day to help with whatever was needed - we brought flowers back from the church and the team were quick to find places for them all to go. As a picky drinker Elm Barn were great at accommodating what I would actually want to drink (fizzy drink addict here) and when we arrived back in the Bentley - Sarah had not just gotten us 2 glasses of pimm’s but a glass of fizzy for me too! Elms barn were always so accommodating and allowed us to do our wedding the way we wanted it. When we wanted to skip a starter and just have a main and trio of desserts - they allowed us to do this instead of their standard 3 course offerings! They were beyond helpful in finding alternatives for vegetarians / those with dietary restrictions. The food was incredible and we have had so many people praise it! Elms barn is a stunning venue, which was made even more stunning by their in house florists who made the venue look absolutely beautiful - a special thanks to Teena for helping bring our ideas together. Teena and her team did an absolutely fantastic job and we have had so many people comment on how amazing and beautiful the flowers were! Even Elms Barn’s bar staff go out of their way to make the day special. Once the bar had closed they joined us on the dance floor for the last few songs, which was a lovely touch! Elms Barn is a gorgeous venue with picturesque grounds, which were not only used by us for photos, but our guests also explored the beautiful grounds and took pictures too. We are so pleased we chose Elms Barn for our wedding day and couldn’t be happier with the wedding they helped create. Thanks again to each person at Elms Barn who played a part in our wedding - each and every one of you are appreciated and we cannot recommend Elms Barn more highly.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at the Brome Grange. From the moment we stepped foot on the grounds and saw the venue we knew we had found the right place. The team exhibited exceptional attention to detail, immaculately decorating exactly as we had requested. The team were extremely attentive hosts and checked in on us regularly to make sure everything was OK. Anything we requested; they were more than happy to fulfil. The venue itself had the rustic charm that we had been looking for, and the bridal suite was a unique highlight that made our day even more memorable.

We planned our wedding party at the Sancroft Barns (which we’d had to postpone numerous times due to covid) from Bangkok without having visited the venue, which could have turned out to be a complete disaster! But our experience couldn’t have been further from it. The barn is beautifully restored in gorgeous rural Suffolk but the best thing about it is Jeremy, Rachel and their team. They couldn’t have been more helpful, flexible or accommodating right from the first enquiry I sent to them. They were completely unflappable on the day of the event when storm Anthony hit - we were camping in bell tents at the venue and they offered us their guest room inside the farmhouse to get ready, met our guests with umbrellas in the car park, had a basket of towels ready and really had everything covered too in terms of a wet weather plan. We really felt that they bought into the spirit of our party too and helped make it a brilliant afternoon and evening. I wholeheartedly recommend the venue, especially if you want to avoid the cookie cutter wedding venue conveyer belt - they are the opposite of this but still utterly reliable and professional. We’ll be forever grateful to them for hosting our wedding party and ensuring it was just as we wanted.

Where do I start? When we started looking at venues we first met Jono at his other venue in Essex. When we sat down with him and was discussing our wedding he then told us about this venue. Well we booked in to see it and we fell in love with the venue as soon as we stepped foot in it. I think we were the first wedding they held at this venue too Everyone who came to our wedding told us how wonderful the venue is and how good the food was and the service. Thank you to everyone who helped us with our wedding. It was such an amazing day and we couldn’t of done it without you all!

My daughter married in Eye in July 2017, and had her marriage blessed by her grandfather under the 500 year old oak tree in the grounds of Abbey Hall, surrounded by family and friends. It was a truly special occasion. They were able to decorate the stunning 15th century Abbey Hall to their own design, providing an intimate and personal setting, and the owners could not have been more helpful. The recommended caterers were amazing - helpful and professional throughout the whole process, and only too willing to adapt menus to suit the event. There is a wide range of hotels and B&Bs, as well as self catering options, to suit any budget - and all within a 10 minute drive - so our 100 guests were all able to find accommodation. I would definitely recommend Abbey Hall - it is a very special place with a unique atmosphere in a lovely market town in the stunning Suffolk countryside - and we were made to feel special throughout.

Lorraine and I would like to thank Copdock Hall for helping us host such a unforgettable wedding, your support and assistance in the lead up and aftermath was greatly appreciated. I would strongly recommend anyone looking to book a wedding venue to choose this one and we cannot wait to try the wine from the vineyard.

Haughley Park Barn was the most incredible venue - more than we could ever have asked for. It's truly beautiful and the grounds are phenomenal. We loved it from our very first visit. Thank you again for creating such a wonderful venue and relaxed atmosphere where we could create such magical memories.

I went to Manor Farm as a guest at my friends wedding and thought it was fabulous!! Although everything ran very smoothly, there was a really relaxed atmosphere and the staff made us feel very welcome. It was a lovely day which meant that we could sit outside in the Courtyard area listening to the band. The food was great, the hog roast was delicious and the dessert table was to die for and I had more than my fair share. The dance floor was great and we danced into the wee hours. A venue which I will definately recommend in the future.

We had a perfect wedding reception in the lovely rustic barn. The atmosphere was fantastic and the owners were helpful without being interfering.
