Could not fault Dove Barn

This is an absolutely brilliant wedding venue.
The venue itself has a relaxed feel without feeling too rustic and you have creative control over all décor inside the barn. The space accommodated my 94 guests without feeling too spaced out or crowded and everyone commented on how great the place was. You have access to the venue the day before to set up which takes away any stresses on the day itself. There is only one wedding each weekend which is a big reason we picked this venue.

Katy and her team are what made the day however. She is super responsive and the most helpful both over email, phone and in person. She set up frequent meetings and touchpoint throughout the process and asked the questions that we hadn't even thought about so nothing went amiss on the day.
Katy was there on the day as well so it was great to have a familiar face on your wedding day. She liaised so well with the ushers and ourselves to ensure the day ran as smoothly as possible.
The day we went to pick up our decorations and cars and everything had been tidied away and put in the foyer to pick up which made things a lot easier.
We didn't use the ceremony room, however looked like it had ample space.

The only minor downside is the turning into the barn off the A556, however Katy gave clear instructions to the guests and there was someone stood on the gate guiding cars in and there is a one way system to manage traffic flow well. So the downside is mitigated as best as possible. you also can barely hear any of the road traffic whilst at the barn which is great.

Overall, I highly recommend this venue if you want a wedding in the Cheshire countryside, it is perfect for any weather and the support you get it so personalised; it doesn't feel like you are just on a giant conveyer belt of weddings like you do at some venues holding weddings every day of the week.

Outstanding from the first visit

There is nothing I can fault with Dove Barn Weddings. From the very first visit Katie was brilliant and it was an easy decision to pick Dove for our wedding ceremony and celebration. Every single guest commented on the venue and the staff throughout the night.

The whole family and staff at the venue went over and above and they helped make our special day even more special.

I would hands down recommend this venue to anyone looking for a barn style wedding venue. The onsite accomodation which is available is also perfect for you stay overnight.
