Civil Ceremony Venue in Canterbury
Go Down the Aisle in a Stunning 18th Century Bar
Civil weddings do not have to be plain. With the right place and programme, they can be as romantic and touching as any other type of wedding. For the ultimate rustic Kentish wedding venue, come to Winters Barns
A picture-perfect civil ceremony venue
Winters Barns features 17th – 18th-century barns surrounded by lavish gardens and a beautiful orchard with 100-year old apple trees. Between the barns and cottage is a manicured courtyard with an enchanting pond and a charming white bridge.
By the open-sided Cart Barn, you will find the wedding arch surrounded by hedges and flowers perfect for an outdoor ceremony. If you prefer an indoor ceremony, our 18th century barn provides a light and airy ceremony room with rustic vaulted ceilings. At night, we will transform this room into your reception area where you can drink and dance the night away with friends and family. Every room in our barns is fully heated and air-conditioned, giving you perfect conditions for civil weddings and receptions the whole year-round.
