Steph & Barnaby
June 2022
Another awesome couple with gorgeous plans and wonderful party people for guests. They managed with rain, they used the space perfectly, everyone was calm and taking it all in. We had started to find our groove with the site and team for this too. Part of the adventure is adjusting and flexing to suit what the venue needs using feedback and heads together afterwards. Every event going forward will teach us more but we don’t mind as long as every celebration is just blimin’ brilliant!
Some words from the couple…
“We chose BITF for many reasons…
Due to it being set in beautiful scenery
We liked the flexibility of being able to design your own wedding, from the lighting to the napkins, we felt this added a much more personal touch, which was fed back from the guests. We had a few people say they could tell that we designed it all which we loved.
Locality of the venue.
Ambleside Cricket Club being right next door…the team didn’t have too far to stumble for the game the next day!😆🤦🏼♀️
We liked it wasn’t a traditional wedding venue, we had the whole place to ourselves. It’s not a ‘factory made/ conveyor belt’ wedding venue. Everything was bespoke.
Sharon and Hogg were very welcoming and accommodating.
Favourite space…
The main barn upstairs..we love how rustic it is..all the wooden beams. The big space was enough room for all the guests to dance and have a great time.
The team were fantastic..
Very helpful and accommodating.
Very flexible.
We were also very grateful for being able to visit frequently in the run up.
Favourite part of the day…
The whole thing was just fabulous. We cant pick a favourite part. Even when the rain and traffic delayed everything..this didn’t matter as we were able to run behind as the venue is so flexible…the guests were happy to go to the bar!
Advice for a DIY celebration..
Don’t do what you think you SHOULD have at your wedding..just do what YOU want. You don’t need all the fancy stuff!! We did this and we had the best day. As long as there’s food, music and a fun crowd everyone will have a great time. Add your own personal touch to it all…like having your own personal Cocktail..The Wileman Woo Woo!
What would we change …
Nothing…apart from we both didn’t eat enough…I barely ate a thing for the sit down meal and we both didn’t even have a sniff of a burger!!! We were too busy having a great time. So we’d say we would make sure we ate 🤣🤣
Would we recommend BITF? Yes we would 100% recommend BITF!!”
