Amazing 🤩🤩

I had my wedding at Rivington hall barn and it was absolutely amazing! Before I booked Rivington I had looked at over a dozen of wedding venues and Rivington was by far the most stunning and elegant venue I had seen, I fell in love instantly.

Everything about Rivington is amazing! The venue, the food & most important the staff!! The staff at Rivington are so polite, friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We had a few dietary requirements with our meals and they catered for everyone whatever their needs were. They were always quick to reply with any queries and always made me feel reassured through the whole process leading up to the wedding and even on the wedding day which made the whole process less stressful and far more enjoyable. They went above and beyond for me, my husband and all our guest on our wedding day, they was so we’ll organised and provided the best services and we couldn’t have been more grateful for them and everything they did for us. All our guest were amazed with everything about it and also commented on how stunning the venue was, how amazing the food was and how amazing the staff was. We literally had the most magical day and memories we will cherish forever and a big part of that is because of Rivington and everyone that works there.

I honestly couldn’t recommend Rivington enough, everything about it is amazing and you definitely won’t be disappointed if you booked them for your wedding venue.

The most perfect and magical day from start to finish.

Words are not enough to review Rivington Hall Barn. The location is absolutely beautiful, the vibe, the decor, the staff are absolutely brilliant, nothing negative can be said about this venue. My husband actually found this venue when we were hunting for the perfect place to say I Do and we came across it on Instagram. We were able to pick our date, arrange times to meet and discuss ideas and what we wanted and the staff gave us everything we wanted and asked for but went above and beyond. They answered every single email I sent (sorry guys) and made sure everything leading up to our magical day went as smooth as possible……and it did. The morning of our wedding, I arrived at 8.30. Before hand, we dropped things off the day before and they made sure everything was safe and looked after. I arrived with my bridesmaids and we started getting giddy. Breakfast of pastries, yoghurt, tea, champagne were brought up to us and the girls were so amazing they didn’t intrude they just left us to it and they are so, so polite and friendly. The bridal suite is absolutely gorgeous, so much natural light and so spacious. When it was time to go down to meet my new husband, they helped me down the stairs with my dress and my dad, the staff are so kind and so lovely if I haven’t said that enough already, you guys are amazing! The whole day went so smoothly and we could not have picked a better place, better staff and we want to relive the whole day all over again. The food is absolutely delicious, all of our guests complimented the food, the staff, the decor just everything. You cannot fault this venue at all.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much to ALL the staff at Rivington, for making our wedding the way we wanted it, for making all of our guests enjoy their day and night and for allowing us to make memories we will cherish forever. Sôphia and Joe x

Thank you Rivington Hall Barn!

My partner and I recently had our wedding at Rivington Hall Barn.

Throughout the planning process, the team at Rivington Hall Barn were always quick to respond, happy to answer any questions and eager to help with any queries. On the day itself, the team were just amazing. The day ran so smoothly and they really looked after us, our guests and suppliers. All of our family and friends absolutely loved the venue and commented on the brilliant service and delicious food!

The barn is absolutely stunning, it is such a beautiful space. It really was the perfect venue for our wedding.

Thank you so much for all of your hard work. You made our day so special.
