Your Kent Wedding - March/April 2022 (Issue 101)

CHANGE IS AFOOT As 2022 arrived so did the builders at The BarnYard, as the venue embarks on another major improvement to its wedding offerings. And let us tell you, both existing and prospective couples are in for a real treat! The permanent marquee, which has been in situ in various forms for approximately 15 years is being completely renewed from the ground up. The existing structure will be treated to new ceiling panels and ceiling curtains, the plastic panelling at the sides are being replaced with bi-folding glass doors all the way around, and a new floor is being installed incorporating a built-in dancefloor. The bar has been dismantled and will be replaced with a new up-to-date version located next to the dancefloor with new lighting and décor. Click play or scan the QR code to see the diggers in action! The old mobile toilet block has been removed too and new modern loos are being built along with space for a lovely powder room. There are also plans to alter the bridal access pathway with gorgeous composite decorative fencing, structural planting and better lighting. What’s more, to celebrate the team have announced a very special offer. If you book any of the remaining available dates for 2022 you’ll be eligible for a 10 per cent discount off the total wedding catering package cost when you quote RENOVATION.

They were set up to recognise excellence within our beloved industry and the hard work suppliers put into bringing their couples’ big-day visions come to life, very often going above and beyond the call of duty. There are a whole host of Kent-based businesses taking home the gongs for the South East region, which makes us super-proud. Check out our roundup below and keep your eyes peeled for the national winners who’ll be announced on www.the-wedding-industry-awards.co.uk BRIDAL RETAILER Victoria’s Bridal Boutique, www.victoriasbridalboutique.co.uk CAKE DESIGNER Cobi & Coco, https://cobiandcoco.com EVENT TEAM Hayne House (pictured), https://haynehouse.co.uk MARQUEE PROVIDER MyTipiEvent, www.mytipievent.co.uk STATIONERY Papelivia, www.papelivia.com VIDEOGRAPHER Aidan Willis Films, https://aidanwillisfilms.co.uk www.daleweeksphotography.co.uk 10
