Over Barn made our wedding the best day ever

You know when you just have that great feeling about somewhere? To put this into perspective:
We had arranged our wedding very quickly due to cultural beliefs.
As we were driving to Over Barn to view it for the first time. I was asked by my now Wife, whether or not it was the right day. In my head "of course it is, i booked it" but paranoia got the best of me. We pulled over and checked the date for the appointment. I had clearly got it wrong.

I convinced my wife that don't worry we'll go see the venue anyway, worst comes to worse they say no and that we have to be turned away.

I convinced my wife that don't worry we'll go see the venue anyway, worst comes to worse they say no and that we have to be turned away.

When we got there we asked to see Sam, a wedding was being setup for the day. Sam still took the time to explain everything to us and was very patient when answering our questions even though he probably had a million other things to do. When we looked inside we fell in love.

A beautiful barn that had been restored perfectly. It has a balcony part over the bar area, the upstairs is perfect gor reception drinks. This leads into the bridal room. With sofas and large area enough for the the bride and her bridesmaids and the mothers to get ready in.

We looked at each other after we had looked around and pretty much said to each other that this was the one.

We would love to give some personal shout outs to the people at Over Barn:

Sam, your ability to put us at ease when we had one million different questions and concerns is truly amazing, your fun, positive, and easy-going nature made working with you such a lovely experience.

On the day of the wedding your clear leadership and your calm but confident team management skills showed as each member of your team had the same approach. You can see the dedication Sam has as any requests made on the day was met with "yep, we're on it" or "absolutely". Sam was always extremely easy to get in contact with on the day of the wedding. Thank you for walking me through how things would work in the morning with the registrars. It was a detail I had mostly forgotten about.

You made sure that the day went of without a hitch and for that we are extremely grateful. Without your hardwork I don't think our wedding would have been as amazing as it was 🖤.
If you could thank Christine as well. She let us know some really important information and moved some stuff when I was panicking on the morning.

Thank you to the staff that made the turn around from the ceremony to the breakfast quick and easy.

Josh, the food was amazing. We couldn't have asked for more. We obviously loved your food on the taster day, but your skills as a chef really showed on our wedding day. People were raving about the food. With food being such a big part of both mine, Hannah's and our families life. We appreciate the effort into making each dish. Thank you for the bigger slice of Sticky Toffee pudding, probably one of the best ones I have ever eaten. Which is a feat in itself as it is my favourite desert.

Your catering team that helped out on the day were brilliant. I loved their honesty, if they didn't know something they would go back and double check to make sure which is greatly appreciated when the tables have different dietary requirements.

Josh and the team put their food out very quickly, do not mistake this as rushed. As the presentation of the food looked sublime and the quality of the food was top notch. We can't wait to come back to Over Farm and eat more of your food.

Cameron thanks for making sure that Sam's hardwork and standards was still maintained in the evening. You are and the bar staff were amazing and extremely quick to respond to our guests.

Jacob, thanks for being patient with us whilst we worked out the financial side of things.

Yet again, thank you all for ensuring our day was such an incredible and calm experience for us. We don't have anything bad to say about the venue or overbarn itself. 🖤💙

A Gloucestershire favourite ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had the pleasure of attending this well known local venue as a Husband wife photography team for a wedding held in February. The Venue is really conveniently located in Gloucester and well presented by a friendly team dedicated to providing couples with a dream wedding experience.

The venue offers a great starting point for those who wish to add their own Decor, making it well suited for those quirky crafty weddings we love. There is ample opportunity to create a really unique experience here. The wedding we attended had a Viking/Pagan theme which worked really well in the space. A perfect venue for an axe exchange ceremony! Over Barn also allow pets onsite for a wedding...

A perfect venue for an axe exchange ceremony! Over Barn also allow pets onsite for a wedding day, so no VIPS have to miss out on your special day :)

The locally based couple picked this venue because they felt very comfortable there after visiting so many times with their children. Over barn is very child friendly, for weddings planned with lots of children in attendance it is ideally equipped with everything needed to keep them happy throughout the day like a skittle alley, a menagerie of resident animals and easily accessible onsite accommodation for midday meltdowns.

The bar offered a good variety of drink options at very reasonable prices, keeping the big kids happy too. This wedding was self catered so we can't comment on the venue's food offering other than to say that the quality of the award winning Over Farm Market is outstanding, with many of our local favorites from Tubby Tom seasonings to Cherry moo ice cream.

The 19th century barn itself has lots of beautiful rustic character, even in February all of the the spaces were kept warm and comfortable with a super fast turnaround time from ceremony to reception with space for 120 people with tables and 180 without. The lighting provided a wonderful ambience for the band to perform and without the tables there was ample room for guests to dance.

As photographers the venue offered us plenty of different backdrops such as the iconic Over Barn door, the steel sheds for a modern feel or the farmland itself. There are many more to be explored such as the woodlands and animal encounters, with a continually changing aesthetic throughout the seasons we cant wait to return to capture more beautiful memories here!

Magical wedding venue!

A stunning space on its own, full of character & plenty of charm! Super chilled vibe allows you to do what you’d like to personalise the space, with as much or as little input as you need from the venue.
A well run staff who really helped make the day run smoothly and meant there was no need to worry so we could just enjoy our day. Super dog friendly space too!

The use of the bridal suite was great, made even better with the new addition of a toilet. The bridal suite allowed us to keep things close to hand and meant you were never far from the action!

The opportunity to have the space for two days allowed us to really personalise what we wanted, making our celebration day just that, a celebration and good party!

We really couldn’t have had a better day, thank you so much!!

The most amazing venue to get married

Oven Barn is a fantastic place to get married. On the day, they were so helpful and did everything to make sure the day ran so smoothly. They’re a great team and we would highly reccomend using Over Farm Market as catering - the food was delicious. Nothing was too much trouble and we were well looked after. Literally, the best day of our lives.

Amazing Wedding!

Everything was amazing.

Sam was fantastic and the venue staff were so helpful in meeting all our requirements and were extremely flexible.

The food by Josh & the catering staff was brilliant, I would recommend the Hog Roast as it was a stress free way of getting everyone fed.

And over barn is a pretty venue that doesn’t need much decoration and is great for photos.

Wow team Over barn! It was an incredible day.

We fell in love with Over barn as soon as we went to view it last October. There is no other venue like it full of character with it’s beautiful wooden barn features and charm to the fairy lights that made the evening all the extra magical. We could not recommend this venue enough.

Wow team Over barn! It was an incredible day. You truly are amazing! From start to finish planing the day all the staff were absolutely fantastic.

Wow team Over barn! It was an incredible day. You truly are amazing! From start to finish planing the day all the staff were absolutely fantastic. Sam over saw all the booking/meetings at the venue pre wedding to discuss ideas. Nothing was to much trouble always taking the time to answer all of my hundreds of questions. Josh from catering at Over was fantastic took time to create us a bespoke menu arrange all of the extra bits we wanted for a more afternoon tea style relaxed feast! Food was 10/10 every single guest commented on the delicious food and presentation. Nothing was to much trouble with Josh sorting and providing food to suit all of our guests dietary requirements. Evening food we had pizza/winter bbq which went down a treat. With some of our vegan guest commenting it was the best vegan pizza they had ever had.

The whole team on the day went above and beyond for us and our guest super friendly and caring individuals who genuinely seemed interested and willing to help all day and night. They made sure i always had a drink in hand and they did a fantastic job making sure every detail happened according to plan. From lighting of candles to the table change around early evening. All stress free we didn’t even have to think about it on the day.

We planed the wedding start to finish in 5 months and went without a hitch! Over has a brilliant store of decorations that can be hired that we used. The skittle ally and outdoor games went down a treat with our children and other younger guests. We wanted a veune our children could also enjoy and the outside area of over was perfect. Kids could play inside and out knowing we could shut the gate in to the courtyard it felt safe for our children to play in and not going far out of sight.

You guys really and truly go above and beyond when it comes to wedding expectations.

For anyone looking for a venue that is intimate, stunning and takes as much stress out of the planning process as possible, I cannot recommend Over Barn enough!

Thank you so so much for a truly incredible day all of your hard work.

Love Mr and Mrs Ross

Best day ever!

A massive shout out to Sam, Jordan, Josh and everyone in the team at Overbarn for the best wedding day!! The venue is incredible- if you’re looking for a relaxed and rustic theme for your wedding this place is the one! They have everything on the grounds to make your day perfect! The team are absolutely amazing- nothing is too big or too small, they will do everything to make your day run smoothly. Even microwaving a pizza for my child before the ceremony was started! If you’re concerned about a winter wedding in a barn- don’t, the place was toasty warm! Every guest was blown away by the barn! No words could ever be enough to thank you...

Also highly recommend for parents looking for somewhere to get married with an ASD child as our son was absolutely great there 🤍

Skäl! A feasting hall made for ravenous vikings!!

We where so lucky to be able to have our viking themed wedding here over the weekend.

From the moment we visited we knew this was the venue for us. Sam and his team where wonderful right from the start feo providing us with numerous meetings and open communication from booking.

We choose a winter wedding package for 70 guests including hog roast which was a incredible value! We wouldn't of been able to do this in a short time scale without such an amazing price and compassionate management. Who where able to address any and all issues or fears we had during the planning!

We are a nerospicy couple with family and friends...

We are a nerospicy couple with family and friends with a range of visible and unseen needs. So naturally we where worried about how the day would go ! I shouldn't of worried at all. Sam and his staff took this and boy did they go with it! All our guests felt comfortable to be themselves and the staff where incredibly accommodating.

Of course over barn itself is a idlic and a beautiful setting in its self, its so easy to make it your own theme plus with use of props was a huge bonus, but we would not of had such a stress free and comfortable day if it wasn't for the excellent staff on site.
They where so down to earth and made us ans the guests feel extra special ! Cam, was truly professional as well as down to earth with a brilliant sense of hunor. Jordan was so amazing with our daughter when she has a stumble (First aid trained and ped trained what a bonus!!) I was able to know she was in great hands with her and could carry on getting our photos taken!

The Hog roast in the evening was truly epic and so much more than we expected noone went hungry that day!!

We stayed at the onsite accommodation (the cowsheds) which were clean, functional, rustic and great value ! Surprisingly incredibly warm for the time of year as well!! Only slight issue was after a few drinks it can be fiddly to open the locks to the bathroom but overall very impressed!!

Don't hesitate with booking! This venue really has it all!!!

Best day ever.

We couldn't have wished for a better venue for our wedding!

Sam was an absolute star and nothing was too much trouble, and no question too silly.

The venue itself is beautiful- the few photos we've had back so far look incredible with the backdrop of the barn interior, and the beautiful courtyard area.

Every single member of staff at the barn made us feel so special and went above and beyond to make sure the day was everything we dreamed of. Shout out to Jordan for helping when I realised that we hadn't planned how to actually play the music for the ceremony!!

A huge shout out to the bar team too...

A huge shout out to the bar team too - you did such a great job keeping the party going. And our guests had nothing but positive words to say about all the team!

The skittle alley went down a treat with the children, the parents loved having that to keep them occupied.

If you're considering Over Barn, you need to also check out the Over Farm catering. Not only was Josh super easy to talk to and arrange everything with, the food was insane!!

People kept telling me how stressful wedding planning is, one thing I can say is that having Over Barn as the venue was 100% stress free!
