Testimonials
A dream wedding venue! From getting goosebumps on our first initial visit to walking down the aisle in the stunning garden with the twinkling lights above you, to dancing the night away in the beautiful barn, we wish we could relive our special day every day! The team, especially Laura were incredible, every little detail added to our day and they couldn’t be more thoughtful, helpful and welcoming to ourselves and our guests! Amazing day, exceptional venue and priceless memories made!
Faye and Kerry
The Tythe Barn team were perfectionists in giving us the wedding of our dreams. The team are there when you need them in the months leading up to it and on the day, but they also blend into the background making everything happen without you even noticing it on the day. The Tythe Barn runs like clockwork and they’re always looking at ways to improve and move with the times. We had the most amazing day and have pictures & memories to treasure forever. Thank you so much.
Lucy and Tom

Lauren and Craig
We couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else. From start to finish the service was unparalleled and no question was too big or small. Jackie was incredibly generous with the hard work she put in to making sure every part of our day was as we imagined. There aren’t enough words to thank the team for all the effort they put in to giving us the day of our dreams. It was everything and more than we could’ve imagined!

On Saturday 27th July I attended a wedding, it was my first visit to The Tythe Barn and I just wanted to let you know what a fantastic time I had, the venue is beautiful. The food was amazing with many saying it was the best wedding food they had ever had. All the staff were friendly and efficient... well done to all the staff on the day it was a fantastic day!
Wedding Guest
Everybody complimented the venue and the food and just how beautiful it is, you have an extremely special place, we are so happy we chose The Tythe Barn.
Rachel and Stuart
We visited six different barn venues but the moment we arrived at The Tythe Barn we were won over. I remember walking back to the car after being shown around and giving each other a little look - this was the one for us!
Kim and David
We got married at the beginning of August and had the most magical day that exceeded our expectations. Everything ran perfectly, the setting was stunning (we had so many comments from our guests) and the food was incredible! This was honestly the most perfect venue and we had the most perfect day!
Beth and Matt
Will, Emma, Harry, Laura and the full team at Tythe worked tirelessly to make sure our day was more amazing than we could have ever imagined. The barn is such a beautiful venue with a magical atmosphere, and we are so glad we chose Tythe as our wedding venue. We had so many guests say how amazing the day was, how beautiful the barn was, and how hard all the staff worked on the day. Despite all the challenges faced throughout Covid, Tythe have been nothing short of supportive, encouraging and reassuring, and we are so grateful to them for their patience and dedication to helping us have the day we have always dreamt of. The barn was just how we wanted it to be, taking the stress out of the day so we could enjoy it to the fullest. We could not be any happier with how perfectly the day went, and just wish we could do it all over again! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Emma and Kyle
We could not recommend The Tythe Barn more as a wedding venue. Being a “2020 Pandemic” bride & groom, we feel we are able to shout this out even more! We were supported from start to finish in
what was an incredibly challenging time for the wedding industry; not once were we made to feel that our wedding was not important. Emma and Will allowed us to postpone our date, not once, but twice - Although the numbers were reduced on our wedding day, we got the perfect day we had hoped for! Their communication on changing guidelines was incredible – I know many couples were not as lucky and we could not be more grateful for their hard work during such a difficult time.
Everything was exceptional on our day, exceeding what we could have imagined! The barn, grounds, food, service, everything was amazing. We got lucky with the weather on our day, but even the rain wouldn’t have spoilt it. Our wedding manager, Laura, was fantastic! When the government guidelines changed in the 2 weeks before our date, she was quick to respond to emails and phone to catch-up in the lead up. On the day she was there to ensure everything ran smoothly and we didn’t have one worry (not even when to start walking down the aisle).
The catering and bar staff were all warm, friendly and attentive – Great representatives of the venue! No one was without food or drinks through-out the day. When it came time to leave (sparkler exit highly recommended) we didn’t feel rushed by anyone – Bar manager, Joe, even helped take our bags to the taxi, allowing us to enjoy our last moments there.
Thank you to everyone for giving us the most special day!
