We had such an amazing day!
Thank you so much for your help throughout our wedding day & the process leading up to it. We had such an amazing day, & were absolutely in love with the venue, as were many of our guests! We had so many comments on how beautiful the place was, with people saying it was genuinely the nicest venue they have attended a wedding at. Even though we first visited the barn in winter, we immediately knew it was the one for us. And then seeing it in it's full summer glory is amazing!

We highly recommend Stockbridge Barn
Words cannot describe how perfect our wedding day was. As soon as we visited Stockbridge Barn, we fell in love with it. It is a beautiful, magical place, with lots and lots of space. The photographer was very happy with all the perfect opportunities to take wonderful pictures. It has a natural beauty & doesn't need dressing up to appreciate this. We had so many compliments from the guests many saying it was the best wedding they had been to.

Wow!
Stunning venue for a wedding, I cannot say that enough! The venue is splendid and only made better by the fact that you are in charge of how you want to decorate it. Cherry is very relaxed and super helpful and I hope to be back soon!

Thank you for making our Wedding Day so special!
We just wanted to thank you for all your help in making our wedding day so special last week. The barn looked beautiful in the sun and we received so many compliments from guests for the venue. Thank you for all your help in the build up to the wedding and being so accommodating and flexible with arrangements. The caterers you recommended were excellent, particularly Fleur Provocateur for flowers and Dorset Fine Dining's food. Your tireless work before and after the wedding really allowed things to run smoothly for us. All the very best for for the future.

We had the most perfect day
We had the most wonderful wedding day at Stockbridge Farm Barn. The barn is absolutely stunning and needs very little decoration because it’s such a gorgeous venue. Cherry was so easy to get hold of and get along with. She is also able to provide lots of suggestions for suppliers, they are really flexible, so you can choose everything to suit your day. We had the most perfect day, thank you Cherry, Best wishes, Avril and Justin Owers

Thank you for helping us create a truly unforgettable day
Justin and I wanted to write to thank you for our wonderful wedding. We fell in love with the barn as soon as we saw it and we knew it was where we wanted to be married. Our guests loved it too. We had lovely comments from everyone. Its such a beautiful place and Its nice to have the sole use of so much space. You were always available at the end of the phone or to reply to emails. Your recommendations and ideas were very helpful in the planning. You and your team did a fantastic job making sure everything was ready for the day. We would highly recommend our caterers- Figs from Somerton. The food was excellent, the service fantastic. Amanda was very helpful and flexible in the planning. Everyone involved helped our day run smoothly which I think is something high on every couple's list. As a result Justin and I could concentrate on enjoying ourselves and spending time with our guests. Which seemed more important than ever after the last 18 months. Thankyou again Cherry for helping us create a truly unforgettable day. Kat and Justin

If you are looking for that ‘one of a kind venue’, this is absolutely it!
There are no words to describe how beautiful a venue Stockbridge farm Barn is for anyone wanting to get married. An Idyllic setting and filled with character and authenticity. We had our wedding here, after being let down by a previous venue; and on reflection, I think they did us a favour, as we would never have stumbled across this gem in the middle of nowhere. With the perfect backdrop, beautiful weather, a stunning Grade II listed barn, fairy lights everywhere, amazing company, this will forever be a wedding to remember, by both ourselves and our guests. In the evenings, we had BB’Q’s at the Shepherds Huts with our friends and this just created a perfect rendezvous area where we all met and celebrated before and after the big day!   Cherry, the owner of the venue, could not have done more for us and our guests to make it the best day. Nothing was too much trouble for Cherry and she made sure that everyone felt welcomes, at home and happy during our stay. We have decided that we will be going back every year on our anniversary to relive the beautiful moments we shared on our special day. I can’t thank Cherry enough for letting us use the barn.  Thank you, Cherry. Lesley and Donovan Baker

Totally awesome!
We held our wedding reception here at the end of October and it was fantastic! 150 people and the best party we could have imagined. The barn was really atmospheric and looked stunning. All the guests thought it was amazing and totally memorable. Cherry was incredibly helpful and rain or shine, whatever your reason for a party - this is the place!

Describe the best wedding that happened at Stockbridge Farm Barn?

There have been so many wonderfully unique weddings - it's very difficult to choose! However two weddings stand out in recent years - one was a Medieval Banquet which was planned with great attention to detail and it felt as if we had just moved back a few hundred years in time. The other wedding was themed on 'Lord of the Rings' with all the guests arriving in the most amazing costumes. Unforgettable!

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

Do not get hung up on unessessary detail - the main thing is that you and your partner are getting married and that everybody has a great time.
