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.

- It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas 🌲 The team put up our trees last week and now we’re truly in the festive spirit (after the annual fight with those pesky lights of course! 😂) Here’s to a month of Christmas parties, celebrations and winter weddings - we can’t wait 🥂
- Your wedding venue will shape the atmosphere, set the tone and be the backdrop of a day you’ll remember for a lifetime. But with so many options and the pressure to get it “right”, how do you know when you’ve found the one? 💍 Here’s three questions Daisy recommends asking yourself: 1. Think back to your first impression, how did you really feel? Were the team genuinely interested in you? 2. Do you feel pressure to spend on things you don’t need? 3. Can you see yourself getting married there? Choosing your venue is a combination of instinct, practicality, emotion and a whole lotta trust. If you’re still searching, we’d love to welcome you here at The Post and help you discover whether your “this is it” moment begins here 🫶
