Southlands Barn is a beautiful and fun new venue in the heart of the West Sussex. It is my favourite venue in West Sussex and the venue I would choose to book if I were to get married again!
It has both indoor and outdoor ceremony areas, both of which are stunning and offer great flexibility. The barn itself is truly authentically rustic and has a wonderful charm. The courtyard areas is such a fun place for your guests to mingle and creates such a good atmosphere.
The outdoor area looks out right onto the South Downs and is the most picturesque background for a wedding service of any venue I've ever been to! (see above!)
The walk down to the lake can make for the most incredible pictures and photographically, there are endless options. The light can be amazing as well, especially when the sun starts to set - you can get the most incredible opportunities for golden-hour photos.
Not long after opening, I happened to photograph one of their first weddings in 2019 and I instantly fell in love with it. It has the most amazing scenic surroundings, incredible views, and the most awesome vibe. Here's a selection of some of favourite pictures from that wedding.
