Your Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wedding - April/May 2024 (Issue 106)

RACKLEY’S CHILTERN HILLS, CADMORE END This luxury wedding barn has been fully restored, benefitting from underfloor heating and air conditioning throughout. Natural daylight floods the space, especially in the glass conservatory that showcases sweeping views of the Chilterns. This leads out to the sun-filled York Terrace where there’s ample seating where guests can enjoy a cocktail reception at sunset. The south-facing wall with a floor-to-ceiling window draped in fairylights makes a stunning backdrop for couple portraits. The seven acres of rolling grounds provide ample opportunity for garden games. A fantastic photo opportunity in the courtyard is against the illuminated millstone water feature and this area also houses a colourful, manicured garden. The wildflower meadow with pathways winding down to the fields below, where nature thrives, also provides a picturesque backdrop and there’s also a pergola lit up with fairylights. Ceremonies and receptions take place in the south-facing main barn that seats up to 120 guests under oak beams draped with festoon lighting, creating a romantic ambience. Smaller ceremonies of up to 60 loved ones can enjoy the Upstairs Gallery and micro-wedding ceremonies of up to 20 guests are best suited to the Meeting Room. There’s also an outdoor undercover option on the York Terrace for an intimate gathering of just eight people. When a wedding is booked, the couple is offered the option of a complimentary food tasting and also a luxury goodie bag. There’s ample car parking on-site for 62 cars with an allocated registrar and disabled parking plus a ground floor disabled toilet with baby change facilities and highchairs available on request.
