THE HALL BARNS AT PRESTWOLD 01509 880 236 | www.thehallbarns.com The Hall Barns isn’t an average wedding venue; it’s for the free spirits, the rule breakers and the partygoers – perfect for non-traditional couples looking for an Insta-ready venue with good vibes and plenty of quirks. The fabulous spaces can host up to 70 for ceremonies, 70 for seated dining, 150 for relaxed meals and 150 for evening celebrations. When the team renovated the Barn, they wanted to create a venue as unique as couples, with rustic styling, original features, and versatile indoor/outdoor areas. Couples can access all these amazing spaces with exclusive venue hire throughout their big day. The Crewyard is the licensed space for civil ceremonies, and what a space it is! This stunning covered courtyard combines the best parts of indoor and outdoor ceremonies while simply fab while doing it. There’s nothing quite like the charm of an English country garden. For those who fancy a scenic licensed ceremony, there are loads of outdoor spaces to provide a secluded and romantic backdrop to the vows. If a church wedding is preferred, the beautiful St Andrew’s Church is just a short walk from The Hall Barns, where the team will be waiting for guests with celebratory fizz. A great party needs great food. The team’s mind-blowing menus will give guests a meal to remember for a lifetime. They can cater for relaxed sit-down meals or rustic and informal outdoor nibbles. Keep the party going with delicious hot and cold food options for the evening. Watch the Crewyard transform into a private nightclub with atmospheric lighting and an epic sound system. End the party with a night under the stars in the enchanting glamping pods. There’s an opulent newlywed suite, nine guest pods, and plenty of room to pitch additional tents for a real festival feel. Fancy a few more home comforts? Book a stay in the Laundry Cottage, a 30-second walk from the Barn. www.meganwilson.net www.meganwilson.net 25 GLORIOUS GARDENS
