    The most magical day 🤍

    Villiers Barn was the first and only venue we viewed. It was absolutely breathtaking from the minute we viewed it. The staff were very warm and welcoming. We then booked it and throughout the whole process nothing was too much trouble for the Villiers Barn Team. They did an amazing job on the day of our wedding and met and went above and beyond our expectations and we are extremely grateful.
    The biggest of thank you's to Juliet, Jonathan & Becky.
    All our love Richard & Chanel x

    Samantha & Adam - 24.10.24

    Where do I begin? Villiers Barn was the only venue we viewed. To when my Fiancé proposed and I found the venue through my photographer I knew I’d found the place I wanted to get married in.

    From our viewing with Juliet, we signed on the dotted line there and then. Jonathan was then a constant communication path for my 1000s of questions over the next 3 years. If I could give 1000*s I would, Jonathan was our rock! He would answer every question, provide every detail, no request was to much trouble and I genuinely felt so calm throughout the whole process.

    The family team at Villiers care about your wedding day as much as you do, you’re treated like royalty & your guests will have the most incredible day. Down to the morning of the wedding Becky was just amazing, making sure me and my bridesmaids had everything we needed. To the ceremony and day when Jonathan had everything coordinated. My glass was always topped up, food was served by the masses and was incredible. Our music played through out the day and the little moments we had in our honeymoons lodge for some time to ourselves was so special. Jonathan and his wonderful wife & partner made sure everything was packed for us to ferry away the following morning, they even arranged special gift we received while staying at the lifehouse spa after the wedding.

    I want everyone I know to get married at Villiers so they can experience the most incredible day as we did.. and of course catch up with our Villiers family.

    Thank you again for absolutely everything, words simply aren’t enough. All of our love always Samantha & Adam xxxxx

    Villiers Barn's reply:

    Samantha & Adam.. words can’t describe how lucky we were to have got to know you so well over the last few years, you are both such a kind caring couple, so to see every part of your wedding planning and ideas come to life, meant the world to us!

    We have no doubt your future will be filled with lots of laughter, singing, and love.

    Our doors will forever be open to you both and you’ll hold a special place in our hearts! Love all the team at Villiers

    A perfect experience!

    From the first time we entered Villier’s Barn we knew it was somewhere very special, Juliet initially showed us around and was very attentive and welcoming. She really cared about us and our relationship, it felt like we’d known her for years.

    After booking the venue, communication was always prompt and professional, no question was too much hassle. At no point did we feel as if we didn’t have a team supporting us. They were always there to help us plan and execute the wedding we dreamed of.

    Our day went as flawlessly as we could hope, Becky and Juliet coordinated our day down to the last detail. They helped keep us both calm and relaxed. Becky even played along with a joke in our Best Man’s speech, which will now be one of our favourite memories of the day!

    All in all, we’re so grateful for everything the Villier’s Barn team did for us and wish we could have our special day again!

    Villiers Barn's reply:

    We wish you both the very best for the future, and do hope to see you again soon, love all the team at Villiers

    A perfect day thanks to an incredible team

    We got married at Villiers Barn in September 2024. We had the most amazing, perfect day and cannot thank the Villiers Barn team enough.

    From our very first contact with Villiers Barn, almost 2 years earlier, Jonathan was prompt, precise and honest will all of his communication. All aspects of pricing were extremely clear and easy to understand. Villiers Barn were happy to accommodate us with multiple visits to view the venue alone and with family.

    Closer to the day, Juliet and Rebecca were fantastic in dealing with all of our questions and reassuring us that all would run smoothly.

    The experience of the whole team is clear to see at all stages of planning and there seems to be no request or scenario they have not come across before.

    On the day, the entire team were extremely attentive and ensure the day ran as smoothly as possible taking care of dealing with suppliers so that we could focus on enjoying the day. All of our guests were extremely impressed with the venue and organisation and several commented it was one of the best wedding they had attended.

    We would highly recommend hosting your wedding at Villiers Barn and cannot give high enough praise to Jonathan, Juliet, Rebecca and the team!

    Villiers Barn's reply:

    Dave & Carrie, thank you for such a detailed review from your wedding day and experience with us since booking, it was honestly our pleasure to host such a memorable occasion, and we are so so pleased you had the day you had always envisioned.

    We hope to see you both in the near future, and wish you the very best, love all the team at Villiers

    Fantastic wedding day

    This is a family run business that makes you feel part of the family. We knew as soon as we stepped into Villiers and got goose bumps because of its beauty, that is where we would marry. The staff are all lovely, they were quick to reply to questions and give advice. The food was amazing and just kept coming! Wish we could do it all again as it went to quickly!

    Villiers Barn's reply:

    Emma we cannot thank you enough for your kind words and detailed feedback from your special day with us!

    We will forever cherish the beautiful moments made, and do wish the absolute best for you both and your amazing future together.

    Love all the team at Villiers

    The venue is stunning and the staff are so good! Everyone commented on how caring they all were. The food was first class and the drink did not stop flowing! I cannot thank them enough!

    The perfect wedding venue

    We had the most perfect day, it was everything we imagined and so much more 🤍 from start to finish The Day family made it a dream come true. Villiers is so much more than a venue, you are not a number to them, it’s personal and your home for the day. Communication was excellent! The food was exceptional. Staff were amazing! I can’t find a single fault or thing I would have changed about the day at all. Everything was simply perfect. Juliet and her team gave us the wedding me dreamed of! Thank you doesn’t even come close to our gratitude.

    Villiers Barn's reply:

    What an incredible review Jordon! We have no words how thankful we truly are for the detail you have gone into about your wedding day with us.

    We all wish you the very best for your future married life together, and do hope we can welcome you to the venue again soon.

    Love all the team here

    Mr & Mrs Greig

    BOOK THIS WEDDING VENUE, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!

    From the moment me and wife stepped foot on the premises we knew this was the place we wanted to get married!

    Juliet, Jonathan and Rebecca made the process from the initial viewing to the big day absolutely seamless! Any questions we had were answered quickly and informatively.

    The big day came and what a day and went with absolutely no issues, the whole team at Villiers barn were working tirelessly behind the scenes to take any worries away for me and my wife.

    The canapés and the food was absolutely amazing and a mega advantage for couples is the venue save you a tray of canapés for you to eat on your own while you take a moment together while once your photos are done, and not only that but you and your partner get to choose any meal of the menu you want as it is your big day!

    The honeymoon lodge is beautiful, then night of our wedding rained and laying watching the rain hit the pond and tap on the roof was a lovely way to wake up!

    I honestly can not recommend this venue enough, it was the absolutely best day of our lives and would love to be able to do it all over again!

    Villiers Barn's reply:

    Jamie and Pippa, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words and detailed review from your special day! We felt so honoured to host such an important day in your lives, and will forever remember the beautiful memories made that day!

    Wishing you and your family a beautiful future together, love all the team at Villiers Barn
