One Location

One Location for your Wedding Ceremony and Reception

There has also been a trend over the past twenty years for couples who are not religious and therefore do not want a church wedding but also don’t relish the thought of a Registry office to look for more atmospheric licensed venues for their ceremony and Barns have really filled this void.

Not only do they offer a slightly formal, often “chapel” like feel with their high, beamed ceilings and rectangular shape which lends itself perfectly to an aisle, they can also be turned around for evening entertaining if necessary. This means guests are not having to travel between two venues as would have been traditional, but can celebrate the whole day in one place.

“It really is the little touches that count when planning 
a wedding and Crockwell has thousand of little touches up their sleeve. Just wish we could do it all again now!”
