Over Barn is a beautiful, rustic venue just 2 miles away from Gloucester City Centre. We think barn weddings are amazing, so we’ve put together just 5 of the reasons we love them so much!
1) Versatility for Styling
The great thing about Over Barn is the versatility it offers in terms of styling options. Our venue can be transformed to suit any taste, our couples get a completely blank canvas.
Rustic décor works well against the wooden backdrop. Decorations like fairy lights and lanterns can be dotted around to achieve a magical vintage finish. Alternatively, dress the venue up with glamour and sparkle or with bright pops of colour. The options are endless!
2) Unique Photo Opportunities
The chances are a barn will be located on a farm. Over Barn is located in the grounds of Over Farm, providing some brilliantly unique photo opportunities. Whether it’s a quick snap with the animals or sitting on a tractor, your wedding photos will be like no other.
3) Entertainment Ideas
If you’re stuck for evening entertainment, why not consider a barn dance? You couldn’t think of a more perfect venue and it’s likely there will be plenty of space to let the dancing unfold. Use the outdoor space and hire some local bands for a festival vibe. With lots of room for your guests to roam around, a magician is another great idea. Let them walk around and entertain your guests in small groups.
4) Outdoor space
If outdoor space is high on your list of priorities, barns are likely to be surrounded by lots of land. The courtyard at Over Barn provides lots of space for outdoor ceremonies, casual BBQs and entertainment around the firepit. You can also go for a short wander around the farm with your new husband or wife to get away from the action for a moment.
5) Flexibility
At Over Barn, we pride ourselves on a flexible and laid-back approach. Having a barn venue as opposed to a hotel allows the day to pan out however you would like. We don’t have a strict, fixed schedule to stick to with another bridal party coming on the same day as you so the timings of the day are up to you to plan.
The barn offers a spacious indoor area which can be set up for a formal indoor meal or a courtyard where hog roast can be served. Over Farm Catering offers a huge variety of dining options that suit our venue perfectly.
