More from A&C's wedding because the final gallery is here and we're in LOVE!📸

We were with them both right from the very beginning when they chose one of our stunning venues to host their special day - which was one big, perfect combination of style and FUN.

Beautiful touches and styling elements were woven throughout the day, but the focus was never taken away from just having a great time!

If you're looking for your perfect wedding venue (we hold the keys to some gorgeous Sussex venues) or wedding planner or coordinator, then get in touch.

Feeling ALL the feels after getting engaged? It's easy to feel overwhelmed or lost at the prospect of being engaged and planning a wedding, but here are our favourite things to do once you've said yes. ✨️

We're seeing lots of gorgeous newly engaged couples on our feed - we love it!

Wedding planning doesn't have to be stressful.

Our biggest piece of advice is to remember the day is about YOU.

If your budget allows, having a wedding planner or on-the-day coordinator can be pivotal for helping you enjoy the process and curate your dream wedding, along with having the perfect day.

MICHELHAM PRIORY💒⁠

A lot of barn weddings are just that. A wedding in a barn, with little other than a bit of outside space to go with. Here at Michelham, there is a stunning historic barn but also the most incredible seven acres of grounds, with sprawling lawns, all surrounded by the most glorious array of wild flower, herbaceous and cottage garden beds. Oh yes, and a historic house as backdrop. There are endless options for romantic ceremonies and sun-kissed drinks reception before heading into The Great Barn for a magical fairy-lit wedding breakfast and party. Michelham Priory is a hidden gem and a truly unique Sussex wedding venue. ⁠

Michelham Priory's 2026 wedding diary is now officially open, so get in touch to book a viewing.⁠

S&B. 💙

"It's everything I have ever dreamed of, everything I've wanted since I was a little girl." Samantha's reaction when she stepped into the Riding School was so heartfelt, it really struck a chord and made the day feel even more special, which we didn't think was possible!!

What a pleasure it was to work alongside such an incredible team to deliver such a dream wedding, where every little detail was considered and then executed to perfection.

This quintessentially English, country estate style wedding, was the epitome of classic elegance but with a very intimate feel. Love, love, love!!

Our 2026 wedding planning diary is open, so please get in touch to book a complimentary call.

VENUE CONSULTANCY ⁠

Blue Door Weddings is a specialist wedding business offering a unique service to potential and existing wedding venues.⁠

We have created and managed some of the most successful wedding venues in Sussex, including the gorgeous Montague Farm via our team of highly experienced specialists. ⁠

In 2019, Montague Farm approached Blue Door Weddings with the idea of creating a wedding venue on its 700-acre farm, which could happily run alongside farming activities.⁠

After a period of consultation, Blue Door Weddings was commissioned to co-create a stunning wedding venue, repurposing three barns and an appropriate area of grounds.⁠

This was completed by Spring 2021 by which time we had filled the 2021 and 2022 wedding seasons completely with bookings. Subsequently, we have gone on to fill the 2023 and 2024 seasons too.⁠

WORK WITH US⁠

We are commercially astute and very flexible at working around your business needs, interpreting your space and business model to create the best venue possible.⁠

We can either support an existing business to increase the frequency and value of weddings or help you create a venue from scratch.⁠

Whatever your needs we can offer a 360-degree service from design through to delivery, and then move on to managing your wedding business.

When we tell you Sophie and James' wedding was EVERYTHING....

we mean it! Ibiza meets the best of the British countryside. Fancy Manor House, but with a laid back party atmosphere.

Their wedding was ALL about just having a great time and an epic party, and it DELIVERED.

FUSION WEDDING // N&B's wedding was a perfect reflection of both their Iranian and Nigerian heritages. Through a lovingly selected blend of entertainment and food and drink, this wedding beautifully weaved the two cultures together to create a day that was truly unique to them as a couple. Details included Iranian drummers, a Middle-Eastern-inspired feast and a dessert table along with traditional Afro-Fusion Suya BBQ.

We love witnessing our couples, their families and cultures unite over the magic of a wedding. Thank you N&B!💙

Blue Door Weddings

With previous backgrounds in TV, PR and event management, it was the natural extension of Blue Door Barns to launch Blue Door Weddings. We hold the keys to two stunning private estates, Firle Place and Glynde Place, both minutes from us nestled in the heart of the Sussex countryside. As well as managing the venues, we offer wedding planning, management and styling services for those couples looking for some extra help to create the perfect day.
