The TL;DR The best weddings aren’t the ones that go by the clock. They’re the ones where the couple decided that no matter what happens, rain, late food, or awkward uncles, they’re going to have a great time anyway. If you are getting married at The Secret Barn, we are here to sort it out…
THE ANTI WEDDING FACTORY MANIFESTO – A STIRRING RANT. Choose people over packages: Let’s be honest, there are certain corners of the wedding world that are churning them out, like chipolatas from a sausage maker. It’s all a bit corporate, it’s all a bit cold, and all a bit conveyor belt for us. It’s time to…
Aless and Elliot’s beautiful wedding day perfectly captured by Jacques Lloyd Photography, have a look through his instagram at all his lovely photos and films.
SOW, SOW, SOW! March has long gone and April has flown by too! Whoops, we’ve neglected this little corner of our website but here’s a double update for you. Spring has swept in in a big woosh of green. Time for us to sow seeds frantically, like it’s going out of fashion, like we’re running…

We’re also prepping a…

Elizabeth Ruby, lemon drizzle lizzle is herself a former (reformed?) Petal & Feast gang member. We love her dearly and she takes wonderful photos! She was the photographer for Amber’s wedding and we’re always pleased to have her at the barn popping in to the kitchen to ask for coke and eat crisps because although…
*jingle jingle* It’s the time of year when all of the Petal & Feast women suddenly realise that it’s almost Christmas and there’s some gift buying to do. There are all the less exciting things to get (lego/headphones/money – delete as appropriate depending on the age of your kids) and then there are the countless…
