Before it became their family home, she ran a wide variety of events across the globe. So, she’s definitely well versed in the field and absolutely loves being part of so many lovely couples’ beautiful days. Tell us about the venue Court Farm is a lovingly-restored 16th-century farmhouse set in 10 acres of gardens situated in the heart of the countryside on Somerset’s border with Wiltshire. Here, you have the flexibility to create the day of your dreams. You can choose all of your suppliers, including the bar offering and we don’t even charge corkage! This means you can decide how you spend your budget, from a three-course sitdown meal to a ceilidh and hog roast. The venue is so versatile, the choice is yours. What does a typical wedding day look like? We invite you to make Court Farm your home for the weekend. So, arriving Friday morning, you’ll enjoy a day styling the venue, the perfect blank canvas, before spending the evening with 14 of your closest family and friends staying in our exquisite boutique accommodation. On Saturday, start your wedding day exchanging vows with an al fresco ceremony in the charming English courtyard, or tie the knot at one of our lovely local churches. Then, when you’re wed, enjoy your reception bubbles and canapés in the courtyard among the fig trees, lavender and white roses. Meander towards the miniature pony meadow and The Woolshed; a spectacular industrial-chic space to host a wedding breakfast, and a great alternative to a marquee. It seats up to 108 and is furnished with rustic trestle tables, antique chairs, elegant floral hoops and festival festoon lighting. After you’ve eaten, escort your guests to the vaulted Rustic Barn nestled among the grounds with exposed brick walls and a high beamed roof overlooking the apple orchard and duck pond. It’s the ideal setting for post speech dancing, live entertainment and bar! Finish the evening by dancing the night away beneath the vintage chandeliers, and between your favourite songs, toast a marshmallow under the stars at the firepit. What’s your favourite part of the venue? It’s overall vibe: we’re charmingly rustic, a mix of country and industrial, where bohemian meets classic and modern meets vintage. We’re simple, elegant and romantic, and most importantly, relaxed. I also love the Aladdin’s Cave Prop Store. To make your planning even easier, we have an on-site wedding styling and props store. With a great catalogue of striking items to help you create a look completely tailored your individual style. What’s next? Can you let us into any secrets?! We have new boutique-hotel style signage around the venue, adding another element of luxury, and this summer we’re adding even more festoon lighting, we love illuminating Court Farm!
