Cripps Barn – One of Gloucestershire’s Best Wedding Venues

This 18th-century barn, with its high ceilings and grand Georgian windows, is an absolute showstopper. It comfortably fits up to 150 guests for your ceremony and reception, with space for an extra 50 guests for the evening do. It’s perfect for a relaxed, fun-filled day that feels natural, not forced.

Your Cripps Barn Wedding Photography

When I photograph weddings at Cripps Barn, my approach is always about capturing the day as it happens—no posing, no staging, just real moments. It’s your wedding day, not a photoshoot, and that’s how it should be. Whether it’s the laughter during speeches or some downright funky moves on the dance floor, I’m there to document it all naturally.

I’ve always loved leaving a wedding feeling like I’m part of the family. Jessica and Jack’s Cripps Barn wedding was one of those days where I felt right at home. We had glorious sunshine (too much at times!) and after the confetti, everyone headed for the shade of the trees. As the day cooled off, we were treated to the most stunning golden hour light for portraits. Those are the moments that make Cripps Barn weddings unforgettable.
