Another winter wedding with the 'wow' factor!

As these stunning photos show – winter weddings at Cooling Castle Barn have a real ‘wow’ factor!

Megan and Scarlett Welling-Rodd had a November wedding in 2018, timing it to make the most of our amazing Christmas decorations which can be used as a backdrop for any wedding booked around those dates.

Megan said: “We both love Christmas, it’s our favourite time of year - we’d seen photos of the Christmas decorations the year before and I was sold on the venue before we even viewed it, the decorations looked so beautiful!

“Our bridesmaids had tears in their eyes when they saw how the amazing the Barn looked for the first time and my dad was really emotional after he saw it, as well. It has a real ‘wow’ factor. It also means you don’t have to worry about decorating it more, as it’s all done for you!”

While the weather can sometimes put off couples from opting for a winter wedding, Megan couldn’t disagree more.

She said: “It was November and was cold outside, but you were having such a good time, you don’t care. The ‘buzz’ warms you up. It didn’t rain and the photos have a lovely, crisp feel to them.

“We think it’s a perfect time of year to have a wedding!”

Looking back on their special day, the couple have some lovely memories and things to say.

Megan continued: “We had singing waiters and they did the lifts for us for the Time of our Lives while everyone danced and watched. We also had sparklers in the evening.

“The Moat House is the perfect place to get ready in the morning. It’s beautiful. For a winter wedding the whole barn interconnects and you don’t even have to go outside if you don’t want to.

“The staff are incredible from start to finish – all our guests couldn’t speak highly enough about them.”

All winter weddings at the Barn have use of a snow machine – guaranteeing a truly memorable end to the celebrations.

Megan added: “We finished on Wonderwall by Oasis and it was a wicked end, we didn’t tell anyone there was going to be a snow machine – it was like a blizzard! 

“It was a really magical end to the whole day, with everyone singing and dancing and snow covering everyone!”
