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.

- The 2016 barn wedding aesthetic is making a comeback 👀 This week, @rockmywedding asked us why we think barns are once again some of the most sought-after wedding venues in the UK - and it all comes down to how the traditional barn has evolved. Whether you’re drawn to rustic charm or something more contemporary, barns offer beautiful architecture and a blank-canvas backdrop that works with so many different styles. Speaking for ourselves, modern barns are light, airy, and designed with people in mind. Sustainable by nature, our spaces are neutral, versatile with room to tell each couples story (and with every detail thoughtfully considered, from lighting and technology to heating and modern amenities!) We’re loving that more couples are seeking out barns in 2026 🫶 — — — Cover photo: @alisaroberts_
