Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

If the weather is glorious, our ceremony and drinks reception will be outdoors, but the feast will be in the barn.

Dress code

Your Summer finery (Suits & Summer dresses).

Shoes

Most of the venue is paved, however we hope to have our ceremony in the walled garden so ladies you may prefer block heels/wedges.

Taking photos during the day

After the ceremony, yes please help us capture our special day, however please refrain from using your phone during the ceremony as we have our talented friend and photographer, Lauren capturing this special moment for us so please help and not block her view. You will have access to professional photos after the day if you would like. We would love for you to take photos and videos and share them on our app. We will provide a link via QR code for you to upload photos and see all the others taken by fellow guests.

Post ceremony

After the ceremony, please make your way to the steps of the barn for confetti photos (MCs Chris & Andrew will show you the way). We will then have photos taken around the grounds and guests will be served bubbles, beers and lots of canapes!

Wedding Feast

As we would love our guests to mingle as much as possible, our amazing caterers are providing lots and lots of canapes as the starter. We will be seated in the barn for the main course which will be delicious sharing bowls of fish, vegetarian and vegan dishes. For dessert, among our guests we have some very talented bakers who have all kindly contributed to a fun pick 'n' mix dessert table, so help yourself to their yummy treats! There will be veggie and meat wraps cooked over the firepit for the evening.

Drinks

We wish we could provide free drinks all night for you all, but after the dinner we have a pay bar providing very reasonable cocktails, wine, beers and soft drinks. The bar will be accepting card payment, but please bring cash too in case the WiFi drops for card transactions.

Things to do in the area

If you're making a weekend of it, which we hope you are, there are plenty of idyllic countryside walks in the heart of the South Downs, quaint galleries, antique shops and cafes in the heart of Petworth, aswell as Petworth House and Deer Park.
