If you’re looking for an elegant and stylish wedding venue which seamlessly pairs the indoors with the great rustic outdoors, then do we have a treat for you – a wedding in a barn!
Of course, we don’t mean a working barn with all the delightful smells of Mother Nature that come with it. We all know that converted barns are the epitome of style; but when you take a look at Willow Marsh Farm in East Leake, you can evidently see the bags of love that have been poured into every minute detail of it.
The reason why it’s so special? Because the first ever wedding which was held at Willow Marsh Farm was the owners’ very own wedding back in 2018 – so, of course, it had to be something truly and utterly amazing!
From what started out as farm cottages and farm buildings which were falling into disrepair, a ten-year journey began to create a wedding venue which offers timeless architecture in abundance and thoughtful interiors inspired by the owners’ travels and a lifelong love affair with France. Chic is an understatement.
Originally the farm started out as a family home, but now it’s a family business which allows others to enjoy this delightful wedding experience, set within stunning grounds which boast wild green spaces, with delightful views of the surrounding countryside. It really is too beautiful to describe in words, but the pictures speak for themselves.
Different Spaces For Weddings Of All Sizes
There are four uniquely different ceremony locations at Willow Marsh Farm which are designed to complement the unpredictable English weather.
The Stables, where elegantly glazed stone archways greet your guests. During the summer and autumn months they are adorned with flowers and the glazed doors open each end to let the outside in.
The Barn is a large open space which can accommodate up to 130 seated guests for your wedding breakfast and a further 80 evening guests. It is a labyrinth of cosy corners and lounges which offer timeless ambience.
The Terrace is the perfect outdoor space for elegant dining and dancing. An ornamental cast iron pergola means it can be covered if the weather requires it, while still allowing guests to enjoy the views.
The entire Willow Marsh Farm is also available for people wishing to have their festivities on a larger scale. Beautifully designed, any guests would be delighted to stay (again, the pictures kind of say it all).
Thomas The Caterer At Willow Marsh Farm
We are delighted to be one of a handful of caterers who have been picked to provide the wedding catering at this stunning venue. And of course it’s only right that we ensure the food is equally as magnificent!
When we created the catering for Jess and Oli’s wedding at Willow Marsh Farm, for example, they said: “Genuinely, it was amazing and we’ve had so many comments from guests specifically on how brilliant the food was. Thank you for making our day so special and exactly what we had envisioned”.
The secret to wedding catering success is in the close planning and our ability to be flexible around the needs and requirements of our guests. When we devised a bespoke tapas menu for Chrissy and Christian’s wedding at Willow Marsh Farm, for example, they said: “The food was truly amazing …. Our guests are still talking about how good the food was now.”
