You're Invited: Barns & Yard Open Day – Sunday 5 October 2025
If you’ve been dreaming of a wedding venue that blends historic charm with contemporary style, surrounded by breathtaking countryside, then save the date for our Open Day on Sunday 5 October 2025. From 11 am to 3 pm, we’re opening our big barn doors for a relaxed and inspiring day at our beautiful venue, tucked away at Hanley Hall in Worcestershire.
This is your chance to explore every inch of Barns & Yard at your own pace. From the stunning Threshing Barn to the character-filled Cartshed, the elegant Gallery to the intimate Cider Barn, each space tells its own story. These thoughtfully restored barns—full of original features, soft textures, and modern finishes—provide a stunning canvas for you to imagine your own celebration.
Beyond the barns, you’ll find landscaped gardens and wild spaces that offer the perfect backdrop for an outdoor ceremony or golden-hour photographs. Wander down to the private lake, take in the views of the Malvern Hills, and picture your guests soaking up the surroundings under wide skies and the changing light of an early autumn afternoon. You will quickly discover why ELLE.com named us as one of The Most Stunning UK Wedding Venues For Your Big Day.
Our Open Day is designed to give you a full sense of what your wedding could look and feel like here—and to help you start shaping it. Our friendly and experienced venue team will be on hand throughout the day to answer questions, offer guidance, and walk you through how Barns & Yard works as a fully exclusive-use venue with on‑site accommodation. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet a brilliant selection of our most trusted local suppliers, each carefully chosen not just for their talent, but for their approachability and shared ethos.
From florists and photographers to our bar provider and caterers, stylists, musicians, and bridalwear experts, these are the people who help bring weddings at Barns & Yard to life. You’ll be able to connect with businesses such as Ross & Ross Catering, Jenny Fleur Flowers, Bullit Photography, The Watering Hole Event Bars, and Carly Cakes, among many others.
