One way your day could go

There's no set running order at Bury Court. This is one way a day can unfold. Yours is up to you.

  1. Two bridesmaids in pink robes hang the wedding dress in the bright round bridal suite under the oast roof beams

    Morning

    Getting ready in the bridal suite

    A few steps from the barn, so you arrive in tip-top condition, whatever the weather.

  2. Guests seated either side of a gravel aisle as a couple marry under white blossom arches in the garden

    Afternoon

    Vows in the garden

    Marry outdoors, or inside the barn if the sky has other ideas.

  3. Groom carrying the bride piggyback across a sunlit meadow with rolling farmland behind

    Early evening

    Photographs in the long light

    The grasses catch the low sun, and the gardens look different every month of the year.

  4. Long tables in the barn dressed with jugs of summer flowers beneath crystal chandeliers and oak trusses

    Evening

    Dinner in the barn

    Our own kitchen, The Good Life, cooks everything from fine dining to street food.

  5. Guests and the bride singing and dancing with raised arms on a packed dance floor

    Dance until midnight

    The party runs until midnight, and the nearest bed is a short walk away.

  6. Wooden tables laid under open-sided canopies in the courtyard garden in daylight

    The next morning

    Breakfast, and goodbyes

    Breakfast for everyone who stayed, and one last wander round the gardens.
