Barn feel wedding venues with no corkage

Chelsea, 1 May, 2021 at 20:41 Posted on Planning 0 8

Hi everyone,

I’ve been trying to find a reasonably priced wedding venues and looked at possibly around 100 now! Just wondered if I missed any hidden ones.

I’d really like a barn element to the venue, whether it be an actual barn or just exposed beams, but with ideally no corkage during the day,

Venues I’ve looked at seem to charge and arm and a leg and it does really hurt to fork over that much cash just for a venue. We live on the outskirts of London/Surrey. We’re really open minded about location, probably aiming for more south east England area.

We’ve looked at The Reid Rooms in Essex - which is amazing just unfortunately the Essex area doesn’t fall into our plans for the following day.

    Don’t think my barn venue charges corkage... it’s south Oxfordshire though, so not sure whether that fits your plans? Bix Manor near Henley on Thames.

    I can recommend Fitzleroi Barn in West Sussex, do not charge corkage and were amazing helping us with our COVID safe wedding in September last year

    Thank you, it was amazing considering all the restrictions, in the end we did the ceremony and our own canapés and drinks then went off to a family members home for a garden party (which was allowed at the time)
    Julia and the team were great, we were intending to have our full day with caterers this year but have decided to put the money towards a new house instead.
    Even though our day was small it was perfect and the barn is just stunning!!!

    We’re getting married at Basing House in Basingstoke, so close to Surrey/London and good transport links. It’s a DIY venue but the barn is huge and absolutely stunning. We’re not paying corkage although did book it 2.5 years ago and were supposed to get married last year. Now postponed until next year. Not sure what current T&Cs are but they have a website and Instagram page so maybe more up to date info there.

    We have just booked a last minute availability date for this August at Acorn Barn in Stadhampton, Oxfordshire. It's a modem barn and DIY venue with no corkage. They're fairly new to hosting weddings (started just before lock down) but it ticked all of our boxes.
