A Wedding Timeline

No two weddings at The Beverley Barn are ever quite the same.

To give you a little inspiration, we've put together an example wedding day timeline, showing how your special day could flow with us.

Remember, this is simply a guide.

Your day, your timings, your way!

The Day Before Your Wedding

Imagine arriving at The Beverley Barn the day before your wedding, surrounded by your favourite people, ready to bring all those beautiful finishing touches to life.

If the Barn is available, you’ll have the option to spend a relaxed few hours setting up your wedding decorations. From styling your tables and perfecting your centrepieces to adding those all-important personal touches, it’s a lovely opportunity to see your wedding vision come together before your special day.

One of our wedding coordinators will be on hand from 11am until 3pm to help with the setup, answer any last-minute questions and settle those pre-wedding butterflies.

This optional experience is £400, and we'll be able to confirm availability at your 12-week wedding meeting.

The Morning of Your Wedding

Whilst you're getting ready and enjoying those special moments with your favourite people, our wonderful team will be busy behind the scenes bringing everything together at The Beverley Barn.

Our team will be on hand from 9am, welcoming your wedding suppliers and ensuring everything is beautifully prepared for your arrival. We'll also have fridge space available for any items that need to be kept chilled.

To help everything run smoothly, we recommend packing your table decorations into individual, clearly labelled boxes. Our team will then carefully arrange everything in its rightful place, following the plans we created together at your four-week wedding planning meeting.

So, while you're sipping bubbles, getting pampered and soaking up every moment of your wedding morning, you can relax knowing we're taking care of all those lovely finishing touches!

Say I Do

The moment you've been waiting for is finally here!

Whether you're dreaming of a romantic outdoor ceremony or a beautifully intimate indoor setting, The Beverley Barn offers five licensed ceremony spaces for you to choose from, each with its own unique charm.

Our stunning Garden Retreat is a particularly lovely choice for spring and summer weddings, providing a beautiful backdrop as you say those all-important words.

Once you've said "I do", it's time to celebrate! Head outside to one of our two patio areas for that gorgeous confetti moment, followed by group photographs with your family and friends.

A moment to treasure, surrounded by the people you love most.

Let the Celebrations Begin!

With the ceremony complete, it's time to relax, raise a glass and enjoy those first wonderful moments as newlyweds!

While your guests mingle over drinks, delicious canapés and perhaps a few lawn games, live music can create the perfect atmosphere for your drinks reception.

Meanwhile, you can sneak away with your photographer to capture those beautiful couple portraits around the Barn and gardens, taking a little time together to soak up the excitement of being newly married.

Announcements and Speeches

As your drinks reception draws to a close, it's time to gather your favourite people together for your wedding breakfast!

Our friendly team can take care of any toastmaster-style announcements you'd like, from inviting your guests to take their seats to introducing you both into the room and welcoming the speeches.

If you're planning to cut your wedding cake, this can be a lovely moment to do so, particularly if you'd like your cake served as dessert or alongside tea and coffee.

Whether you choose to enjoy your speeches before or after your wedding breakfast, we'll help everything flow beautifully.

Golden Hour

There's something truly magical about golden hour at The Beverley Barn, and our beautiful sunsets are certainly something special!

We love this part of the day so much that we'll even factor it into your wedding timeline, making sure you don't miss the opportunity to capture those dreamy, golden-lit photographs.

Golden Hour is also a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a little time together, just the two of you, to pause, soak up the excitement and reflect on the incredible day you've shared so far.

Let the Evening Celebrations Begin!

As the sun begins to set, it's time to welcome your evening guests and get ready for a whole new chapter of celebrations!

With cocktails flowing, music playing and your favourite people together, the atmosphere at The Beverley Barn really comes to life.

Whether you fancy a little friendly competition with outdoor lawn games, plenty of laughter on a bucking bronco or dancing along to a fabulous live band, there are so many ways to make your evening celebrations uniquely yours.

And for a little extra magic, why not gather your guests outside for a beautiful sparkler shower?

From relaxed drinks in the evening sunshine to laughter, music and outdoor fire pits, this is where the evening celebrations really begin!

Evening Food & Dancing the Night Away!

Whether you fancy freshly made pizzas, tasty burgers, a hog roast or canapés, evening food is the perfect way to keep your guests fuelled and ready for the dance floor.

With everyone happily fed, it's time to turn up the music and dance the night away! From your favourite party classics to those singalong moments, there's nothing quite like celebrating with all your favourite people under one roof.

As 11.30pm approaches, it's time for the last dance and the bar closes. We recommend arranging taxis for 12 midnight, so everyone can enjoy the celebrations right until the end.
