    Happiest Day of our lives and all thanks to the old Kent barn

    We would just like to give a huge heart felt thank you to all of the team at The Old Kent Barn.

    We had our special day on a sun filled day on 3rd January 2025 surrounded by all our family and loved ones.
    Our wedding was brought forward with 6 months due to doctors advice to my wife.

    They couldn’t of been more helpful. Helped us through every step of the way and guided us through the entire process.

    This was an absolute god send to my wife who is regularly in and out of Kings College Hospital.
    The team took all the stress and worry from us and were always on hand in with...

    Best day of our lives, perfect venue

    Myself and my husband married at the stunning Old Kent Barn in October and had the best day of our lives. The staff were amazing throughout the whole process from securing a date all the way to end day after the big day. Our wedding coordinator in particular Claire was just amazing and so helpful and resourceful. We would highly recommend the venue to anyone!

    Fantastic venue

    We got married at TOKB and it was flawless from the very first moment we’ve signed to the wedding day itself.

    The whole process was very smooth and they have thought about every little detail. Their portal is very comprehensive and they help you to plan your wedding and make sure you cover every aspect of your day.

    They really do go above and beyond and they run the wedding almost military style (in a good way!). They make sure you are on track without being pushy. Everything is done seamlessly and in the background. You never know they are there!

    The venue is fantastic and there’s very little you need to do to decorate....

    The BEST of the best when it comes to weddings! More than just a venue!🤍

    I would recommend TOKB to every single couple out there! They are more than just a venue - the staff here cater to you as if you are family, and gave us the wedding day of our dreams! Each staff member goes above and beyond to ensure your day is perfect, and you get a wedding coordinator who basically ensures everything on the day goes smoothly. They took all the burden of the stress so my partner and I could just be present and enjoy our day. I’m so glad we chose the Old Kent Barn, as my partner and I know not every venue is as thorough and caring as them (from stories from our friends and family about their weddings). Thank you TOKB - we love you!!

    Just incredible!

    We chose TOKB as our wedding venue and never once regretted our decision. They have been incredibly supportive through our plethora of questions and thoroughly looked after us from enquiry and beyond the big day. Every single member of staff works extremely hard - from grounds keepers to kitchen staff to bar staff to wedding coordinators - you name it! Nothing is too much trouble for anyone there as they purely want you to have the most special experience with them. I cannot recommend them enough!

    The Old Kent Barn was the most perfect venue!

    The Old Kent Barn was the most perfect venue! From the moment my now husband and I went for our first viewing right through until after the wedding the staff at the venue have been amazing - Ashleigh was our wedding coordinator and could not have been more helpful and on the day she was an absolute star and went well beyond her role in helping do things to ensure the day ran smoothly. The venue is STUNNING and the staff set everything up for you so that you can have the most relaxed wedding morning! Our guests could not speak more highly of the food - it was delicious and the chefs team were really accommodating with special...

    Really just perfect!

    We got married at the Old Kent Barn this week. From the minute we first enquired, to the tour, booking, planning, and wedding day were all perfect and so well organized. The staff all go above and beyond and we could not have been any happier. They make the planning process so easy, and we're always there is we needed assistance. The venue is gorgeous, so well maintained, the gardens especially are always being worked on and are gorgeous, we especially loved the pond and ducks!! I would not have changed a thing. The food was brilliant we went for a BBQ and had SO many compliments from our guests, the canapes, deserts and evening food were all amazing as well. Thank you so much for making our day perfect.

    BOOK THEM! Don’t think twice about it.

    A week on from our wedding and I’ve come to the conclusion that there are no sufficient words to describe our experience at the barn.
    From the minute we booked, the team have been brilliant. They are so responsive, they never leave you waiting for an answer when you email. They are positive, supportive and, most importantly, kind!

    I have listened to the podcast ‘The Unfiltered Bride’ for most of the wedding planning and they encourage booking a ‘day of’ coordinator as wedding venues don’t provide the support you need. I can promise, with all my heart, you do not need one at TOKB. I had worried that we’d made a mistake not booking one, but...

    Perfect wedding venue

    The quality of what the team delivers at the Old Kent Barn is superb. The level of planning and detail, coupled together with the quality of execution, is as good as it gets in the wedding industry.
    The food, the service, the people... everything we could have asked for was perfect.
    We totally enjoyed our wedding day at The Old Kent Barn as everything went exactly as we would have wanted. Every guest we spoke to after said the same: "an amazing venue and the best wedding they had been to".
