Bennetts Willow Barn is situated on a working dairy farm and is surrounded by grazing fields, woodland and a charming lake. The property has plenty of places to take those all-important photographs, including flowers that bloom throughout the year, picturesque log walls, fairylights, willow trees and a firepit.

CELEBRATE IN STYLE
Couples can choose to run the day how they want, holding ceremonies outside in the gardens, in the yurt marquee or the barn. The 20m long yurt marquee is a private, exclusive use space that’s adjacent to the gardens. It includes a firepit and outdoor space for garden games or even a bouncy castle and can seat up to 140 people or 150 without a seat each.

The barn is slightly smaller and can seat up to 100 guests at any one time, with a maximum capacity of 150 for the evening party.

WE LOVE...
Bennetts Willow Barn offers a discount for hiring the barn or yurt marquee for a first-anniversary wedding celebration or engagement party and there is also on-site accommodation, perfect for extended celebrations.

Rather than simply choosing a coastal venue and then planning the celebration independently of it, couples are increasingly allowing the landscape, changing light and relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces to influence the day itself. Rockwater has identified four of the key considerations shaping modern coastal weddings.

Something old, something gone: The British wedding traditions on borrowed time

New Aspall research reveals the wedding traditions that are being dropped - from the bouquet toss and choreographed first dances, to the father-of-the-bride speech - and the modern alternatives taking their place. Speeches given only by men (36%), a choreographed first dance (34%) and the formal receiving line (30%) are among the wedding traditions that couples are keenest to ditch, a new study reveals. Wearing a veil, the 15-minute father-of-the-bride speech with no speech from the bride, and the traditional tiered fruit cake are also increasingly falling out of favour as Brits tie the knot, researchers found.
