We provide a blank canvas on which you can design your ideal celebration. We try to keep things simple, providing what we know you’ll need (tables and chairs, for example) with no hidden charges (such as corkage), so you can focus on the details that will make your special day really yours.
The Black Barn is an intimate and low-key wedding venue, and we deliberately host only a small number of wedding receptions each year. It’s likely that most of your guests won’t have been to a wedding here before, so it feels special and exclusive.
The Black Barn is located in the heart of Stansted village, next to the picturesque Norman church of St Mary. It is approached through large double doors from the old farm courtyard and opens out onto a traditional English lawn, with rising herbaceous borders and a rose and wisteria pergola, which will be exclusively yours for your wedding reception.
