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.

- Yesterday was a really special day ???? Four in five cancer patients are hit with an average cost of £570 a month as a result of their illness, according to research by MacMillan Cancer Support. @costofcancer help families face the financial burden, aiming to make sure they can concentrate on getting through the treatment whilst they take care of the bills. The charity is founded by Nicky, who runs it outside of her full-time job and out of the goodness of her heart after loosing her best friend in 2009 - witnessing cancer’s financial burden first-hand. Our amazing colleague Serena hosted a @jump4you marathon fundraising for @costofcancer for a second time yesterday, this time honouring the memory of her beloved husband, Paul. We are so incredibly proud of you Serena, as he would be. The barn was full of so much love, support and determination with over £8,000 raised. We’ve left a link in our bio if you’d like to find out more about this incredible cause ????????
