Contact Jo/Millie: 07769 283555 Countryside barn wedding venue, close to the unique Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire
An exclusive countryside venue with an added touch of luxurious rustic romance - Oak & Old Granary Barn - a truly beautiful wedding venue on the edge of the unique village of Woodhall Spa.
Autumn is officially upon us and we always look forward to this beautiful turn of seasons! The 'ber' months bring beautiful colours, breathtaking sunsets and those dark chilly evenings spent toasting marshmallows around the fire pit.

Our Traditional, Lincolnshire built Oak Barn is set at the heart of the venue and is filled with authentic, rustic charm. It was built using the Mud & Stud technique, and completed using locally sourced materials - namely our gorgeous Oak beams.
Now, it offers a versatile space for each of our couples to use however they wish - from creating a romantic ceremony setting, or intimate wedding breakfast, to later providing a spacious dancefloor for the evening celebrations to really commence! It really has it all!
Receiving these preview images alongside feedback like this is just the most amazing feeling!
Wish we could re do this day all over again - the gorgeous Sarah & Matt back in July!

With September looming and the nights drawing in, we can't help but start to get a little excited for the magic of Winter Weddings!
The Summer season has been so busy and we have celebrated so many beautiful weddings already but as an all year round venue, we always look forward to the contrast of our Winter Weddings and how different these days are. You can't beat the cosy vibe of glowing log burners and the twinkle of fairy lights brightening up those dark chilly nights!
if you are interested in having a Winter Wedding with us, send us a message or give us a call on 07769 283555 ❄️
Tomorrow marks 1 year since the incredible wedding of G & W!
These wonderful people organised the wedding of the year, all the way from Dubai and there was no better feeling for us, as a venue, than to watch their beautiful day fall perfectly into place & to see how happy they were (despite the typically British weather)! Happy Anniversary to you both 🤍

// The Old Granary //
This beautifully restored Barn is believed to be around 450 years old. It is full of character and charm due to the conservation of its original features, including the mezzanine which was originally used for wheat and barley storage and the interior walkway arches the horses and carts would have passed through. These now offer unique and breathtaking backdrops, either for an intimate romantic ceremony or to accommodate a larger guest list of up to 160 seated day guests for the wedding breakfast, the choice is yours! In the evenings, this spacious area provides a dancefloor for up to 250.

// Why we love photoshoots //
We absolutely love taking the opportunity to work with different suppliers to come up with unique, exciting concepts for photoshoots.
Take a look at these amazing set ups! Not only can the couples get to see Abbey Farm styled in different ways - and each supplier brings such a personal approach - we can also work with a team of new talent which let us have a supplier to recommend to each and every couple no matter what their style or thoughts for their day.
Once your venue is booked and you have begun to secure some of your suppliers, it's time to start focusing on the details and looking for inspiration on themes and how you want your day to look.
Some of our favourite places to look for new ideas are tiktok, suppliers' instagram pages, wedding blogs, pinterest and magazines!

POV: You've booked your wedding venue - what next?
Once the big decision is made, you have your location and most importantly, you have your date, which all of your planning going forwards, can then begin to build around! It is helpful at this point, to start a priority list of suppliers to begin contacting next, so here's our recommendation:
1) Registrar / Church service time - this helps to build your whole day's timings to go to your other suppliers with
2) Caterers - book up very quickly and are a key part of your day
3) Photographer - also book up very quickly and it is important to find someone you will be comfortable with on the day
3) Florist / Stylist
4) Entertainment / Band

Deciding on the perfect evening food for your guests on your wedding day?
You really cannot beat a delicious, fresh wood-fired pizza, especially when they are served from the most gorgeous vintage Citroen H Van. This works perfectly in our courtyard area, where your guests can enjoy a bite to eat around the fire pit whilst they rest their dancing feet!
are in high demand so make sure to book in quickly!
// 5 Ways to add a Personal Touch to your day //
Here are 5 personal touches we've seen and loved:
1) Getting your wedding date embroidered into your suit / dress
2) Include your 4-legged friends - is your day really complete without?
3) Incorporate something personal onto your wedding cake - the centre piece of the day!
4) Providing all of your guests with a wedding favour you have made / is relevant to you as a couple
5) Attaching something special to your bridal bouquet so that it can be carried with you throughout the day

// Things to think about when looking for a Wedding Venue //
There are so many things to think about when starting to look around potential wedding venues. If you are looking for a bit of advice / help on what to ask, we feel that these points are some of the key things to consider:
1. Can I get legally married on-site?
2. Does it have the option of a Church either on-site or nearby?
3. Are outdoor ceremonies & outdoor dining an option and will there be an indoor back up?
4. Am I able to choose which caterers we use for the day?
5. Is there flexibility in terms of how I use the space and how we choose to set it up?
6. Where is the venue located and will there be traffic noise?
7. Are we able to have a DJ / Band for the evening?

"I'm Engaged! Now I need to start Wedding Planning!"
We know that once the excitement of engagement starts to sink in, everyone is quick to ask when your date is going to be? And this can only be decided once you find your venue, making it the perfect place to start!
As you start that search, it is important to make sure to look at multiple types of venue, as not only does it help you decide which styles that you do and don't like, but it also stimulates lots of ideas and questions.

// INTIMATE CEREMONIES //
Are you feeling overwhelmed about having the spot light on you? Or maybe you only want your nearest and dearest there for the precious moment that you say 'I do'? Why not opt for a small guest list for the ceremony and take away that worry!?
We can create the most beautiful and intimate setting for your ceremony that is still just as magical, irrespective of how many guests you choose to invite. And you still have the option to invite your bigger numbers for the drinks reception, wedding breakfast & celebrations afterwards.

Stuck between a Wedding at home or choosing a Venue?
There are so many factors to consider when making this decision, with lots of benefits to a wedding at home, however this is a decision not be taken lightly!
There is a lot to be said for taking the pressure off yourself and your family, particularly as things get busier in the lead up to your day. This is where taking advantage of the comfort and experience we as a venue can offer, throughout the planning process and on the day itself, comes into it's own!
Book a viewing appointment to see for yourselves what we are able to offer!
