Barn wedding venue near Newbury, Berkshire
Your day,
done your way
The Post is a beautifully modern take on a countryside wedding venue. Our English oak barn brings together slick, contemporary architecture, bespoke design, and a personalised approach to planning - right down to the last detail.
The amount of people who said it was the "best wedding ever" is thanks, in no small part, to the team and beautiful venue.

- Planning a wedding in 6 months? It’s a hell yes from us. We designed our All-Inclusive Vibe package to bring your vision to life without the endless to-do lists. We’ve included venue hire, food + drink and florals, cake, DJ and more from some of our most trusted suppliers. Starting from £11,995 for 60 guests // explore more via the link in our bio 🤍🖤 — — — So, where to begin? Start with your venue and key suppliers (think photographer, registrar, florist, cake, and entertainment). Go with your gut - your first impression of the venue team is everything. Then, find suppliers who are genuinely excited about your vision and trust them to bring it to life. They’ve done this hundreds of times and know how to make it seamless. The best part? You’ve got less time to stress. We’ll be honest, wedding planning can be a lot. But with a 6-month timeline, your decisions stay fresh, and there’s less time for second-guessing. There’s good news for your bank balance too; a shorter lead time can often mean great savings with venues and suppliers. Don’t be afraid to ask, there’s every chance there’s a deal to be made. Still unsure? Listen to our episode of the @unbridely podcast where our Venue Director, Daisy, dives into the world of wedding planning in 6 months 🫶 — — — Photography: @thespringles @andrewkeher @thekensingtonphotographer @jenniecolbourneweddings @steph.kiely.weddings @joannabrooksphotography @moonflower_weddings
- We’ve seen grand entrances… but this?! Iconic. Charlotte + Josh didn’t just walk into their wedding breakfast, they danced on a grand piano and brought the whole room with them! If you’ve been waiting for a sign to go all in on a high-energy entrance… this is it. Unreal vibes with @thelondonfunctionband on Saturday 🔥
- From blooming spring vows to cosy winter I do’s, our venue is gorgeous year-round. Nestled in Berkshire, our barn is a beautifully modern take on a countryside wedding venue.
