Outstanding

Nicky and the Pangdean staff were outstanding. They had a solution for every question we could think of and made the day stress free. They went above and beyond to make the day perfect, we couldn’t recommend them highly enough. The venue is an ideal backdrop and we are still receiving compliments from our guests about the food. Thank you so much for such a memorable day.

The BEST day of our lives

I cannot recommend this venue enough. The barn is absolutely stunning. We used the barn for our ceremony, wedding breakfast and dance party after and it looked beautiful for each occasion. The staff were flawless from start to finish. There was nothing that was too much trouble and they put us at ease throughout the entire process. All of our guests complimented how friendly and wonderful the staff were throughout the whole day. The food was delicious from the tasty canapés, to the yummy main meal and dessert to the best pizza we have ever had! We had the most incredible day of our lives and would give anything to do it again! Trust us when we say…visit and book! You won’t regret it!

Fantastic local venue, flexible and outstanding service – couldn't imagine our special day anywhere else.

From our first visit to the barn, through to the wedding day and arranging a day to pick up our props and gifts – Nicky and everyone at Pangdean were super professional, attentive and helpful. Pangdean's communication was second to none. All our guests had a lovely time and felt looked after on the day. The perfect location for a low-key autumnal wedding. Thank you!

The perfect wedding venue and team ❤️

We got married at Pangdean a couple of months ago, and couldn't have wished for a more perfect day! The team were great at helping us organise everything in the lead up to the wedding (despite only having 6 months) - we didn't need a wedding planner. The venue had lots of space both outdoors and indoors for all the guests and the food was divine! Pangdean were amazing at accommodating any of our requirements, nothing was too big an ask and they were super flexible with our chosen setup/timings for the day. Some of our close family members have food allergies and everyone at pangdean went out of their way to accommodate everything. Many of the guests also commented on how well organised, friendly and helpful the staff were on the day. We can't thank the team at Pangdean enough and would definitely reccomend this venue to anyone looking to get married! Many thanks, Meena & Matt

Amazing barn venue - with flexible menu

We booked Pangdean Barn for our wedding in summer 2024 and the staff were outstanding.

The main reasons we booked Pangdean were the food options and the versatility of the space at the venue.

I have food allergies and so it was important to us to find a venue where we could have a menu that was safe from cross-contamination and inclusive, rather than the Bride having to have a different meal option to everyone else. Pangdean does not have a set menu, only recommended options, and Nikki and the Chef went out of their way to create a menu that suited us.

We loved that the barn is a real barn and decorated with fairy lights in the roof. The garden is large and well maintained and was ideal for our welcome drinks. There were also plenty of outdoor and indoor areas for every part of our wedding.

We were able to visit on multiple occasions after booking to look around again and plan how we wanted our wedding venue to look, and we were greeted as friends.

We had planned a lot of personal decorations, from bunting to photo displays, but nothing was too much trouble for them. The Groom baked the wedding cake and they even agreed to stack the tiers for us on the day. We had also packed a lot into our schedule, from special dances and sparklers, and they were happy to advise us on everything to make it all work. Pangdean set-up all our decorations the morning of the wedding and when we turned up everything was perfect.

On arrival we were greeted with champagne and treated like VIPs the whole day. Even when they couldn’t access our playlist before we arrived (not their fault and quickly resolved) we didn’t notice because they had compiled a new playlist based on their knowledge of what we liked, despite our preferences not being ‘mainstream’ chart music.

We loved the unique experience of being driven up to a local field for sunset photos with our photographer. We also really valued having a dedicated and locked Bride’s toilet for getting changed and freshening up.

A bonus of booking Pangdean meant we didn’t need to purchase additional suppliers for the food, outdoor games or decorations (e.g. some venues require you to pay for additional drapes). They had different options for small items such as easels and card boxes too so that you can personalise your event without having to buy extra items. Our only additional suppliers were a florist (although they do offer this as an additional service), our photographer and a dance floor (not usually required but we wanted one for line dancing!). You won’t need a Wedding Planner either - they are experts in weddings!

Thank you so much Pangdean, you made our wedding day perfect.

Congratulations on a stunning wedding. Your meticulous planning and attention to detail certainly paid off and you made it so easy to realise your vision with your fabulous designs. I think you owe us the GF wedding cake recipe 😉 See you soon, we hope. xx

Hi Rosie and Josh - Thank you so much for taking the time to review. It was such a stylish and well thought through wedding. You had a vision and it all came together beautifully to create a simply sensational day - we loved making the chicken and mushroom pies too. Congratulations and see you soon, we hope. ❤

Flawless service

Nicky and the Pangdean staff were there for any query or question in the run up to our September wedding. They were hugely attentive to every detail and made us feel really on top of the planning before the big day. We felt incredibly well looked after throughout the day with our guests commenting on the beautiful venue and the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. The support we had throughout the planning as well as the seamless running of the day was more than we could have hoped for. We'd wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone!

An unforgettable wedding co-ordinated by the most fantastic venue!

We are beyond grateful for everything Pangdean did for us on our special day. The attentiveness of the staff was truly commendable, and we received numerous compliments from our guests about their exceptional service. From accommodating our various requests, such as using the 2nd field and even going the extra mile to prepare the cricket match area, to taking us to the fields for sunset photos, cooking a delicious Indian meal that received high praise, crafting amazing Espresso martinis, and seamlessly coordinating our Saxophonist, Violinist, and friend's performance - the list of their contributions goes on!
A special mention must be made to the owner, Nicky, whose hands-on approach and meticulous attention to detail were evident throughout. Bryony and Krysia ensured that our day ran smoothly, while Sarah and Gill handled all the organization and patiently answered our numerous questions.
Thank you once again for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.
Warm regards,
Steph & Abhi
