Odo's Barn is delighted to announce that we have won the 2025 wedding industry wedding awards again... this is now FOUR years in a row! This is a fabulous achievement and one for which we are very proud. It means so much as the awards are judged and based on the wonderful reviews from our wedding couples. Odo's Barn is a truly magical wedding venue just outside of Ashford in Kent. Set in the Garden of England, we overlook the Romney Marsh, so the views are stunning, and we even have our very own medieval moat. Our original 15th-century tithe barn combines rustic charm with its elegantly beamed roof and modern style, with its stunning golden chandeliers, soft lighting and warm carpeted floor. We are not a barn that needs hours of your time to make it look fabulous or lots of money on decorations. It is beautiful already and has everything you need ready and waiting. Don't take our word for it, come and see us! Facilities and Capacity The barn is licenced to hold civil weddings and partnerships and is perfectly suited for up to 50-100 day guests for the ceremony and wedding breakfast, and up to 150 evening guests for the evening party. Our stunning rustic bar, decorated with twinkly lights and local hops, is located inside the barn, and so too is our dance floor. This means we keep the really fun atmosphere in the barn and don't lose the party spirit. Acoustics in the barn are fantastic for bands, musicians and DJs, and all our lighting can be dimmed to create a wonderful atmosphere. A peaceful grass meadow can be used for outsdoor ceremonies, bell tents and glamping, garden games, as well as a fabulous photo backdrop. Loos, catering kitchen and car parking are also included and on site. Personal Touches and Wedding Planning We love you to add personal touches like photographs or bring things of special importance for your special day, but as we have said, it really doesn't need anything else to make it look fabulous, as it is already gorgeous on its own. We offer full planning support in the run-up and on the day itself, ensuring your day is seamless and stress-free. We have 11 years of wedding experience, and in that time, we have worked with some of the best wedding suppliers around, which we are very happy to share with you. Catering We work with local 'preferred' caterers who offer a fantastic range of menus such as relaxed barbecues, sharing and feasting menus, served to each table, as well as canapes, afternoon teas and grazing tables. There is something to suit all styles and budgets. We also have lots of street food suppliers who we are happy to share with you.

I just wanted to say how overjoyed I am with how everything went for our special day. I honestly cannot fault Odo’s Barn or their amazing team, everything was absolutely perfect! Charlotte, who took care of everything for us, was incredible. From start to finish, every detail was handled with care and professionalism, making the day completely stress-free. All our guests kept saying, “What a beautiful venue!” And they’re right, it truly is stunning. But it’s so much more than that. Odo’s Barn has a warmth and charm that makes every moment feel effortless and magical. Charlotte and the team were attentive, kind, and always one step ahead, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Thank

How do I even begin.... Odo's Barn is the most beautiful, charming venue, with so much character and warmth! It was perfect for our special day. It was the first venue we viewed, and every venue after didn't even come close to Odo's. The option of having the ceremony inside or outside is very appealing, especially given the fine English weather, but we chose to have ours inside. And boy did it look amazing! The subtleness of autumnal colours, cosiness of the fairy lights, the decor and styling of the barn, it was perfect! All the staff are lovely, but Charlotte really is such a huge part of the Odo's experience. Charlotte is so kind, attentive and nothing ever seemed too much. She helped guide us with our planning and gave us her honest opinions which we really valued. It's clear how much she loves helping create the most magical wedding days for her guests! I can't thank the team at Odo's enough, we had the mo

We had the most incredible wedding day at Odo’s Barn and cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment we first visited, Charlotte made us feel completely at ease, nothing was ever too much trouble, and her knowledge, organisation, warmth, and attention to detail were second to none. The barn itself is simply stunning and was the perfect backdrop for our day, so many of our guests commented on how beautiful it looked and how smoothly everything ran. Charlotte was there every step of the way, making the planning process fun and stress-free, and on the day itself she ensured everything went perfectly so we could just relax and soak it all up. If you’re looking for a magical venue with bags of character and a coordinator wh

When we first visited Odo’s Barn, we just knew we had to get married there. We didn’t view anywhere else as we knew no where could come close. Charlotte, the owner, is at the heart of it all. From the moment we met her she was always on hand to offer advice or support and her knowledge really helped us to make decisions when we needed it. The day was everything we had envisaged and we couldn’t have asked for more. All the staff were incredible. The day was so well organised and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Everything ran so smoothly and calmly. Guests commented on how chilled out our wedding was which was the exact vibe we were aiming for. Everyone said how beautiful and intimate the venue felt. It really does have a family feel. Charlotte, thank you for playing such a huge part in giving us our dre

We could wax-lyrical about Odo’s Barn all-day however to summarise both the Venue and Team (lead by Charlotte) I would simply describe both as ‘Perfect’. Odo’s Barn is a family-run (and owned) owned/party venue and having first visited last year with an aim of tying the knot in September (2024) the entire process was just seamless. Set in a beautiful age-old barn, Charlotte was warm, welcoming and hugely accommodating. Her help, assistance and support throughout was sublime and her attention to detail ensured the day ran better than smoothly creating what was the b

A seriously excellent venue and brilliant team, Odo's Barn has surpassed our expectations and delivered a day better than we could ever have hoped for. Charlotte works meticulously hard on every detail, and was wonderful to consult with throughout the whole process. We weren't too sure what we were doing when planning our wedding ourselves, we were a bit nervous and didn't have a 100-page ring binder with a perfect plan ready to go, and needed quite a bit of help and guidance with our relatively bare-bones plan. But she had endless time and patience for all our annoying and silly questions, and was more than happy to steer us in the right direction, recommending experienced suppliers who have worked the venue plenty of times before, and suggested changes which we never would've thought of ourselves. A huge number of questions and queries from us in the months leading up to the day were answered quickly and kindly, putting any anxiety to rest, and the lead up to the day and day-before setup was super professional, with all staff more than willing to be an enthusiastic and hard working pair of hands, while offering advice and suggestions when asked. A truly gorgeous venue that massively wowed everyone on the day, and provided a perfect location for our incredible day - a relaxed and fun festival themed wedding. We absolutely had to have a big noisy rock band, which was a first for the venue, and there were concerns over the acoustics and the 95db sound limiter, but Charlotte made sure it would all work out, and they have a great system which ensured it sounded absolutely amazing. The high ceilings and rustic wooden interior actually sounded incredible with no distortion, reverb, or echo, and the clear visual traffic light system worked fantastically to ensure that there wasn't excessive noise pollution for neighbours. The staff were also fantastic at keeping the venue looking great throughout the day too, never leaving rubbish or empty glasses out for too long, and adjusting the room to suit the proceedings wonderfully. Last minute requests and tasks were handled incredibly well, and helped the day to go perfectly. Staff were super friendly and lovely to all guests, recorded clips of special moments for our video compilation, and were on the dance floor enjoying themselves towards the end of the night, which was delightful to see. An unexpected surprise upon returning the day after was all decorations and extras that were left behind had been tidied up and boxed up for us, making a potentially arduous task with a hangover very light work! Absolutely 10/10 in every aspect imaginable - a beautiful venue as it comes without needing any extras, incredible value for money, wonderful staff, and truly a perfect setting that made the best day of our lives absolutely heavenly. Thank you so so much Charlotte

Where to start with this amazing venue? From the moment we walked into Odo's Barn we knew this was where we were going to get married. The barn itself is strikingly beautiful with its rustic look flooded with natural light due to being very extremely spacious but also lit up with beautiful twinkling fairy lights – we fell in love. Odo's is surrounded by a large amount of outdoor space with plenty of places for guests to sit and chill and mingle with one another and for suppliers to set up - a large patio with quirky sofas and chairs, a huge courtyard with wooden tables and a giant swing and the long meadow overlooking the surround countryside. With two options of locations to get married inside and out – we opted to get married in the meadow which was simply stunning with plenty of picturesque places for photos opportunities. Access to the barn the day before and after was also a real benefit. Having piece of mind setting up everything up the way we wanted, whilst also being able to enjoy a picnic with nearest and dearest in the meadow building up the excitement of the next day. Charlotte, your passion for your business and love for weddings shines throughout all your guidance in the planning process but also your support on the day. You took away all the stress of wedding planning helping us with each step; recommending suppliers, supporting with decorations, regular catch ups allowing us to visit whenever we wanted to, organising the wedding party and generally being there for us with anything we needed – we cannot thank you and the team enough! My words cannot recommend Charlotte and the barn enough - so make sure you view and consider the barn as your future wedding location! Ou

Where do we even begin? We really can’t put into words how beautiful this venue is. We only looked at Odo’s Barn and knew instantly that we wanted our wedding here. Nothing else compared. A big draw was the three day hire – this allowed for set up the day before the wedding day. The barn feels intimate but there’s plenty of space, the barn itself has so much character and has been tastefully decorated. The surrounding fields and outdoor space provide breath-taking views of the countyside (golden hour pictures at the monument are a must) From the initial meeting with Charlotte to the wedding day itself, she was always on hand to answer any questions, give recommendations and ensure that everything ran smoothly. We had the most magical day and we honestly can’t thank Charlotte enough. She is a wonderful host. All the staff on the day were extremely attentive and worked very hard! Our guests have said that it was the BEST wedding they have been to. If you’re thinking of booking

We had our wedding celebration at Odo's Barn in August - and it was perfect. The barn and location itself is just stunning, with opportunities to add your own decorative touches. The swing, firepit and meadow are such lovely additions too for photos, games etc. It really is the perfect wedding backdrop. Charlotte (host) is fantastic - no question is too silly, they helped us plan our day and all the details and made the entire run up too and day incredibly stress free and organised. The drinks options are so varied, wine is really good quality and affordable too. Lastly, the service team on the day were great. I would recommend any

Odo's Barn was the first and only venue we viewed - we decided there and then that this was where we wanted to marry. The Barn, the gardens, the moat and the views are all just so beautiful! Charlotte was a joy to deal with right from the start, from her amazing list of preferred suppliers to being full of great advice and knowledge during the wedding planning stage, and was always available to answer any questions we had. The big day itself was absolutely perfect. The Barn looked incredible, and Charlotte and her team all worked their socks off to make sure ourselves and our guests were looked after and that the day ran smoothly. We will treasure

We recently celebrated our Daughters wedding at Odo’s Barn, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. First and foremost, the venue itself is stunning. This converted barn has picturesque views which provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the surroundings, and the venue made for some truly memorable photos. Our coordinator and owner Charlotte was incredibly helpful and accommodating to all of our requests. On the day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch. The ceremony space was beautifully set up, and the reception area was just as we had envisioned. One of the highlights was the flexibility and customization options that Odos barn offered. We were able to personalise many aspects of the wedding to fit our vision, including two John Deer tractors which were special to the family which made the day feel uniquely ours. Overall, Odos Barn exceeded our expectations in every way. If you're looking for a wedding venue that combines beauty, excellent service, and attention to detail, look no further. We highly recommend Odos Barn to any couple looking to have an

From the first time that we contacted Odo's Barn, we knew it was the place for us. Firstly, the venue and the surrounding gardens and views are stunning. There is a so much to do at the venue, with a wrap around moat, which you can walk around, large gardens and fields, the Bilsington Church behind which connects onto the venue and makes for the most lavish cut-through back to the barn. With her chosen and trusted list of suppliers on hand, it massively helps out and ultimately saves you time and money as they already know the venue. Fern and Farrow food that we chose from the list, turned out to be the best wedding food that everyone had ever had at a wedding and that came from every guest! As we went through and booked our suppliers for the day, Charlotte would take great care in organising each individual one and make sure that they are happy with the running order, arrival and exit time and care on the day, which was so kind of her to offer. Her team of champions on the day were the best. They took great care in every single guest that we had at Odo's from the minute they arrived till everyone went home. We couldn't thank them all enough for making our day as

Odo’s Barn was our dream venue and it did not let us down in the slightest! Charlotte and her team helped us from start to finish, with kind advice, friendly suggestions and great alternatives. The barn is beautiful and it really allowed us put our decorative spin on the day and make it our own. The grand chandeliers are such a statement piece and look incredible in our photos. The bar staff worked nonstop too! They took everything in their stride when our guests swamped the bar. We were even allowed access to the connecting gardens. For us in May, the flowers were starting to bloom and we captured some truly lovely memories. They couldn’t have done enough for us. Thank you for helping us make our wedding one to remember forever!
