An incredible venue, an incredible team and one incredible day!
We knew from the moment we set eyes on Launcells Barton that we had finally found the place we were going to get married! We feel so lucky to have stumbled across it on our annual trip to Cornwall last year because we can't imagine having a better experience.
Everything about Launcells Barton is spectacular! We were so happy to have found a venue that had accommodation on site and multiple spaces to use throughout the day and the cherry on top ...the absolutely stunning grounds!
Lara and the Launcells team are so warm, helpful and organised. They made the whole planning process so easy and stress free. We had so many comments throughout the day from our guests saying how beautiful the venue was, how lovely all of the staff were and how smoothly our day ran.
We had the best day of our lives and couldn't recommend Launcells Barton more.

A Magical Cornish Venue
We knew from the moment we arrived at Launcells Barton that it was the perfect venue for us. We had only been engaged for 24 hours and we were completely clueless about where to start!
Lara was incredibly warm and welcoming and gave us a thorough tour showing us everything that the venue had to offer. The venue includes accommodation for up 12 people in a stunning 17thC Manor House which we felt was a fantastic part of the package.
Throughout the planning process Layla and Ellie were on hand to answer any queries we had and they were able to provide fantastic insights into the ‘do’s’ and ‘dont’s’ which helped us to plan the perfect day. The Trello board was really useful as a forum to collate information and ask any queries in the final stages of the planning process.
When we arrived at the venue to set up for the big day Ellie was welcoming and helpful and helped make the process as stress-free as possible. We loved having exclusive use of the site which enabled us to enjoy the evening before and morning after with our closest family and friends.
The day itself was magical and the venue was absolutely stunning. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the venue and the surrounding area. Ellie was fantastic on the day and ensured everything ran smoothly so that we could enjoy ourselves after 18 months of planning! Our guests also commented on how attentive the bar staff were and they were very friendly and chatty with our guests.
We would recommend Launcells Barton to everyone as it really was the most perfect venue.
Thank you to everyone in the Launcells Team for giving us the perfect day!

The perfect venue and hosts!
Where do we start! We had the most incredible and memorable day at Launcells Barton. A day that we are still reminiscing daily and continue to hear amazing memories from friends and family alike.
Ellie and Lara helped us plan the perfect wedding, all whilst we were abroad. They answered every question we had and kept us informed of all of the details we needed. We met with Ellie and Lara for the first time, half way through our planning phase, and they talked us through the day in such detail that meant we were all on the same page. The recommended suppliers were amazing, just about all of our suppliers were from this list and they were truly phenomenal. This, alongside the great communication from Launcells Barton, meant the entire process was stress free and exciting.
On the day, Ellie and the team worked behind the scenes seamlessly, to ensure we had the most beautiful day. They co-ordinated with all of our suppliers to ensure the smooth running, from the guitarist, to the florist and food.
Dan and I were able to fully relax and enjoy the day, knowing Ellie and the team were on it. Our day at Launcells Barton surpassed all of our expectations, it was everything we wanted and we will cherish those memories and pictures forever!
Thank you!

Our wedding
I had saw adverts on instagram of Launcells Barton long before we were engaged so when it happened, I knew straight away where I’d like to look! We arranged a viewing and the second we drove into the gates, we knew it was the one! The grounds are beautiful and the perfect mix between country and modern. Once we’d booked, the venue stayed in regular contact, offering advice and support the whole time. The lead up to the wedding was not stressful at all due to the coordinator Ellie being on hand to help whenever needed. Having the venue for the whole weekend was perfect and gave us plenty of time to set up then relax and get excited for the day! Our wedding day went perfectly and everything ran smoothly! The tractor ride was the perfect way to end the day. We can’t thank Ellie and everyone at Launcells enough for giving us the best day of our lives.

The wedding venue of dreams
Launcells Barton were incredible! Lara and Ellie were unbelievable, nothing was too much trouble and they ensured the entire day ran smoothly. The venue is so beautiful and we could not have asked for a better day if we tried. From our initial visit to the day itself the service was incredible and honestly if we could do it all again we wouldn't change a thing! Honestly the whole day felt like a dream, we couldn't have asked for anything more.

The most beautiful venue
The day after I got engaged I found Launcells Barton online, I saved it straight away and would always look at the pictures of it and could not wait to visit. It was the only venue me and my husband visited together and the pictures lived up to the venue and more. It is beautiful and has so many perfect different areas to have those picture moments. There is so much room for guests to explore and the children loved playing on the big field just outside the reception area.
Leading up to the wedding I had a good few questions I would need answering and Lara and her team would always be available to answer in a timely manner.
Our day was magical and perfect. The staff were lovely and we were looked after very well. I can’t express how much I love this venue and it will always hold a special place in our hearts. If you are thinking of booking I highly recommending you do as you will not regret it!
Thank you again to Lara and her team!

The most amazing day!
We fell in love with Launcells Barton as soon as we visited and knew straightaway that it was where we wanted to get married! The grounds and buildings are really beautiful and we loved the passion that Lara and Matt have for the farm and the venue. In the lead up to the wedding, Layla and Lara were super organised, answered all of our questions and gave great advice. We used several of their recommended suppliers, who were also excellent. On the wedding day, our wedding coordinator Layla was absolutely brilliant - she was so lovely, calm and organised, and made sure the day felt really relaxed and ran completely smoothly. We had the most amazing day, and would definitely recommend Launcells Barton!

The perfect wedding!
We got married on NYE and immediately that requires extra planning, staff available to work etc. yet Lara and the team were completely accommodating. They supported us the whole way through and knew the vision we were going for. We genuinely felt like every part of the day was well thought out and our guests absolutely loved the venue. Thank you Lara & co!!!

The most magical day ever!
Our wedding at Launcells Barton exceeded our wildest dreams. We were one of the 2020 weddings which had to be postponed, and when we finally got to celebrate two years later, in July 2022, Covid was still present, making it impossible for a number of our guests to attend. After a flurry of last minute cancellations and travel mayhem for some of our closest family members from abroad, some of whom didn’t make it, we were just so grateful for the guests who did. What ensued was simply MAGIC! The sun peeked out of the clouds just as Nadia stepped out onto the aisle with her father. This set the tone for the rest of the day, which was absolute perfection – from the welcome drinks to the wedding breakfast via the garden games through to our first dance and our band absolutely killing it! Many of our guests – old and young – said it was hands down the best wedding they’d been to! We feel so lucky that it was ours.
The day truly was magical, but we are well aware of the hard work, passion, commitment it takes to make that sort of magic happen and that was all down to Lara, Matt, Maddie and their incredible team. From our very first visit to our final hours there, we felt wholeheartedly welcome and looked after, the opposite of just another couple to marry. Their rapport to us was personal, authentic, full of genuine care and concern, especially throughout the pandemic and the challenges it kept throwing our way. Steeped in history, beautiful inside and out, the venue is an absolute dream, but what truly makes it are the people who run it with so much professionalism and even more heart. We will never forget our time there and are immensely grateful for it.

A wedding venue like no other
Words cannot describe how wonderful Launcells Barton and the entire team were on our wedding day, and even the built up to our wedding day. We were blown away with the attention to detail, organisation and sheer passion and love they have for their couples and what they do... That's not even to mention the stunning house and beautiful grounds!

The most amazing wedding venue!
As soon as we visited Launcells Barton we knew we wanted to get married there. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - both barns, the courtyard, and the gardens are so beautiful and we particularly loved that guests would move around all the different spaces throughout the wedding day. At most venues with wet weather options, there is one that is clearly a second choice, but at Launcells Barton all areas are just as stunning as the next. Also the fact that we could stay at the stunning house at the venue made it feel like a weekend long celebration.
I would honestly say that the most important thing when planning a wedding is working with suppliers and teams that you trust. After meeting Lara, and subsequently Maddy, at pre-wedding meetings I had no doubt that the wedding was going to be amazing as they so clearly knew exactly what they were doing.
There are so many things to have to remember when planning and leading up to a wedding, but the system that Launcells Barton have in place made it so easy to make sure that everything was thought through. The team were always on hand to respond to queries and help with all aspects of planning.
We cannot recommend Launcells Barton highly enough, we had the most amazing wedding day there!

The most perfect venue for the best day of our lives!
There actually aren't enough words to explain how we feel about Launcells Barton and our wedding day!
This was the very first venue we looked at and from that moment, we knew we had found something special. The other venues we saw the following day just did not compare to how we felt whilst walking around.
The feeling of warmth, love, history and beauty we got whilst walking around the venue- we just knew this was where we were going to getting married. It was beyond perfect in every sense and everything we had been searching for in one.
The whole lead up to the wedding was faultless; Maddie and Lara kept the whole process in perfect order and we had absolutely full trust in them and their experience - for us it was all pretty simple and stress free!
From start to finish, our wedding day was just the most fun ever- we had no stress, no worries; Lara, Maddie and the team just took complete control which allowed us to just enjoy every single moment and we are so incredible grateful for that!
There is absolutely nothing we would change- for us it was complete perfection.
Our guests had the most incredible day, everyone commented on how stunning the venue was and how it was so "us".
Launcells Barton will forever have the most special place in our hearts.

Best day everrr!
We’d been to look at other venues over Cornwall but there was something special about Launcells barton as soon as we pulled up in front of the house. The more we explored the grounds we just fell more in love with it. Lara initially showed us around and Maddie took care of us on the lead up to the day and was absolutely incredible. Anything we needed she had the answer or suggestions. On the day it couldn’t have gone smoother.. Maddie was everywhere we needed her to be covering our every needs… running back and forth from the house to the mill barn collecting buttonholes, mobile phones, everything we needed - we cannot thank her enough!! The attention to detail is fantastic and all the small things you wouldn’t think about but just make the day run that much smoother Launcells thought of! Thank you so so much!! :)

Perfect venue for a perfect day
We cannot recommend launcells Barton enough. From the first visit we both could tell it was the venue for us, an absolute beautiful setting which was easily accessible yet made you feel like you were miles away from everything. Being from a farming background it was lovely to have the country touches around the setting making it feel rustic and homely. We've dealt with Maddie, one of the wedding coordinators from our first visit to the actual day. She was helpful, accomodating and always really responsive to emails in the run up to the big day. On the day everything ran smoothly and to time which is definitely down to Maddie making sure everything went to plan! Everyone commented on what a beautiful venue Launcells is from the manor house to the grounds to the reception barns.
We did occasionally find it hard to find time to come and visit at the start due to limited visiting options during busy times, but Maddie always tried to work with us to find a time we could all make.
Thankyou Launcells!! Love Mr&Mrs Jones

It’s a vibe!
This venue, the owners and every member of staff that work there are nothing short of exceptional. They provided us with the best experience from start to finish and made our wedding day a dream come true. Every guest and supplier also commented on how special the venue was.
The exclusive venue has beautiful surroundings, intimate spaces, options for indoor and outdoor celebrations and just a vibe that’s hard to describe until you go there. It’s electric!
We couldn’t ask for anything more from Lara and her team and would highly recommend this venue as THE place to get married in Cornwall.
