The most perfect day
We could not have asked for anything more from the team at Launcells Barton, our wedding day was honestly perfect in every way. The planning build up was make effortless by Matthew, Lara and Ellie and the staff on the day were extremely accommodating and professional throughout. If we could do it all again we would choose Launcells Barton every time. Our guest to this day still comment on how it was the perfect venue for its character and picturesque setting. We can’t thank the team enough for helping us have the most prefect wedding day

The perfect venue and hosts!
Where do we start! We had the most incredible and memorable day at Launcells Barton. A day that we are still reminiscing daily and continue to hear amazing memories from friends and family alike. Ellie and Lara helped us plan the perfect wedding, all whilst we were abroad. They answered every question we had and kept us informed of all of the details we needed. We met with Ellie and Lara for the first time, half way through our planning phase, and they talked us through the day in such detail that meant we were all on the same page. The recommended suppliers were amazing, just about all of our suppliers were from this list and they were truly phenomenal. This, alongside the great communication from Launcells Barton, meant the entire process was stress free and exciting. On the day, Ellie and the team worked behind the scenes seamlessly, to ensure we had the most beautiful day. They co-ordinated with all of our suppliers to ensure the smooth running, from the guitarist, to the florist and food. Dan and I were able to fully relax and enjoy the day, knowing Ellie and the team were on it. Our day at Launcells Barton surpassed all of our expectations, it was everything we wanted and we will cherish those memories and pictures forever! Thank you! Dan and Gemma x

The most perfect day ever
We cannot get over how incredible our wedding at Launcells was. We fell in love with the venue as soon as we saw it - there are so many beautiful areas both outside and inside as well as the stunning manor house which is included for the bridal party to stay in for two nights. The team are super organised and our day ran completely seamlessly, communication was fantastic throughout the planning process and everything is organised in a way that ensures no details - big or small - can be forgotten. One of the things we loved about the venue was that the outdoor and indoor ceremony areas are equally as beautiful as each other. We were lucky with the weather and were able to get married in the stunning walled garden but the indoor mill barn is just as beautiful, which really took the stress out of not knowing what the Cornish weather would do! Having access to the whole venue from the day before until midday the day after was also a huge bonus which we wouldn't have even considered before we started planning. It gave us and our suppliers plenty of time to get things set up as well as doing a practice run for the ceremony itself. We also loved that the venue is a blank canvas and it is ultimately your choice what you do with the day - suppliers are recommended but you are not limited to just one set caterer for example, which we found with a lot of other venues. An added bonus is that the grounds are so beautiful that you don't need to spend too much on decoration - unless of course you want to! The location of Launcells is also great - the venue is very secluded and rural but less than 10 minutes to Bude by car, which gives your guests loads of accommodation options to suit different needs and budgets. A final highlight was our evening tractor ride, which ended up being one of our favourite parts of the day! It's a great opportunity to have some time just as a couple, as well as to get some stunning photos looking out on to the fields and sea. Launcells is a truly special venue and we are so, so happy we decided to book it for our wedding!!

Beyond perfect!
Where to start! We honestly cannot thank Launcells Barton enough for helping to make our wedding day the most magical day ever. Not only is the venue absolutely gorgeous, but Lara and Matt, and all of the staff, are so very warm, loving and welcoming. We were looked after so well, and the day ran so smoothly (even in the rain!!). The organisation, co-ordination and support provided was incredible. A genuine thank you for everything, a day and memory to cherish forever.
Response from the venue
Thank you for your wonderful review! It was amazing getting to know you both and seeing your day come together! The rain couldn't stop the both of you smiling all day! xx

A lovely, relaxed wedding weekend
The venue at Launcells Barton is stunning and having the place for the whole weekend is lovely. The house is beautiful and a great place to relax the night before and morning after. The vibe of the place and staff is very relaxed but professional so you can rely on them to handle the logistics of your big day while focusing on having a good time.

Perfect in every way!
Our entire wedding journey with the Launcells team really was perfect in every way. From our initial contact through to our big day, Lara and Ellie couldn't have been more helpful. From the moment we stepped out of the car to view Launcells Barton, we knew it had to be our wedding venue. Lara and Ellie made the whole process as stress free as possible. They set up a Trello board where all of our information was kept together so that we were all on the same page. Our day ran more smoothly than we could have imagined and Ellie was on hand throughout the day for everything that we needed. Our wedding day was Ellie's first wedding 'flying solo' and you would think she had been doing it for years. From her kind words before the ceremony, organisation and getting stuck in having fun with us, she really was spectacular. There aren't the words to express how incredible the Launcells team are and how perfect they made our special day and we would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone searching for the perfect venue for their big day!
Response from the venue
Thank you so much for your incredible review Tom! Thank you for also being so friendly and welcoming with Ellie's first solo wedding! We're so happy to see such lovely comments! xx

The venue of dreams
Launcells Barton were incredible! Lara and Ellie were unbelievable, nothing was too much trouble and they ensured the entire day ran smoothly. The venue is so beautiful and we could not have asked for a better day if we tried. From our initial visit to the day itself the service was incredible and honestly if we could do it all again we wouldn't change a thing! Honestly the whole day felt like a dream, we couldn't have asked for anything more.

The most perfect day!!
We got married at Launcells in April and it could not have been more perfect! The venue is absolutely stunning, we really didn't need to dress it much at all as it speaks for itself! So many guests told us it was the nicest venue they had been to. The staff were absolutely fantastic in the run up, as well as on the day where everything ran absolutely seamlessly. We ended up deciding to have our reception drinks and music inside and a guest commented that they 'didn't even notice the ceremony barn becoming the drinks reception', thanks to how great all the staff were. We felt so lucky to also have use of the manor house for our stay which was lovely. I couldn't recommend Launcells Barton more :)
Response from the venue

The team were welcoming and so helpful
Launcells exceeded our wildest dreams. From the moment we first visited the venue we knew this was a special place. There is plenty of beautiful space both inside and out, and having somewhere we could set up and decorate the day before as well as stay for the full weekend was so wonderful. Lara, Matt and the team were welcoming and so helpful throughout the whole planning process. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or for kinder or more helpful staff.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Make sure you take some time together during the day, you will be so busy speaking to family and friends, that sometimes couples don't see much of each other and at the end of the day its about the two of you! Whether you put on your wellies and go for a walk or you hop on the back on our tractor you can see some spectacular views across the Cornish Countryside and even watch the sun setting across the sea!

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

We had a wedding where the couples seating plan, was based on their favourite beaches from their travels! I love all the personal touches as that's what makes the day so special.
