UNIQUE WEDDING VENUE
Your wedding day at Odo’s, with our barn at the centre of the celebration.
The creative freedom Odo’s offers is real, and so is the support that comes with it. We start with what matters most to each couple and build everything around that – which is why every wedding that leaves this barn comes together beautifully, and why no two have ever looked the same.
A really great wedding is one where you feel like a guest at your own celebration.
The brochure has everything you need to know about getting married at our unique wedding venue.
More than a venue you pass through for the day.
Exclusive hire at Odo’s means the barn, garden, meadow, and grounds are yours alone, with no other wedding happening around you and no sense of being rushed through someone else’s schedule.
The afternoon before the wedding, the barn is yours from midday until 3pm. This is the time to walk the aisle, run through the logistics with Charlotte, and make sure everyone knows where they need to be and when. Any photographs, decorations and tablescapes can be brought in and arranged for us to follow on the day – and you can leave feeling settled, aligned and ready for everything that follows.
“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 she 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 our guests and we were looked after and that the day ran smoothly.
We will treasure the memories of our amazing day at Odo’s Barn forever, and it was worth every single penny. We’re already wishing we could do it all over again!
—Bride, Lisa
PRICING & INCLUSIONS
Everything you need is already here.
Hire at Odo’s includes considerably more than couples often expect, with exclusive use across three days, planning support throughout, and many of the practical details already taken care of. Furniture, glassware, lighting and on-the-day coordination are all included, so it is worth looking through the full list below before budgeting for anything else.
From April to October, the marquee over the terrace is also included, giving the celebration more room to spread out. Odo’s can host up to 100 guests for the ceremony and wedding breakfast, with up to 150 joining you in the evening.
We do not take wedding bookings on consecutive days. Our pricing reflects the time you have at Odo’s, the preparation required, the access across three days, and the care that goes into ensuring the barn is ready for your wedding alone.

TWILIGHT WEDDINGS
Say your vows at golden hour.
For couples who want something more intimate and relaxed, a Twilight Wedding at Odo’s offers the same beautiful setting and inclusive approach with an evening feel. Ceremonies begin from 5pm, giving you the barn, the grounds and the whole evening ahead of you.
Without a formal sit-down meal, the evening has a sociable and relaxed feel – sharing boards and street food, and a great party as the night draws in. You still have access the afternoon before to add your personal touches, and the morning after to gather everything up.
FOOD & DRINK
A tried and trusted team of local suppliers.
Your Food
Good food sets the tone for the day, and it’s something Charlotte feels strongly about. She has built relationships with a trusted group of local caterers over many years – from relaxed feasts to more formal dining – and can point couples in the right direction based on what they’re looking for. If there is a caterer you already love, you are welcome to bring them along too; there is simply a £650 facility fee for caterers outside the preferred list.
Your Drinks
Drinks are handled by Odo’s throughout, with bar staff on site from start to finish and no minimum spend. We can provide any combination of welcome drinks, table wine, and a pay bar, from English sparkling wine sourced from local vineyards to cocktails, beer, spirits, and the occasional round of Baby Guinness – the bar is always well stocked, and the dance floor is never far away.
YOUR EXPERIENCE
A lot goes into making this look easy.
What makes Odo’s such a unique wedding venue isn’t just the barn; it’s the way it all comes together. The flow of the day, the food, the music, the moment the barn fills with all your favourite people – none of it is left to chance.

“Magical venue and outstanding service!”
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 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 who genuinely cares, book Odo’s Barn. We feel incredibly lucky to have celebrated our wedding there it was everything we dreamed of and more.

Where to stay
Without on-site accommodation to organise around, guests are free to find what suits them – and you are able to hire a beautiful nearby cottage or holiday let for the whole weekend, or longer. With the Garden of England on the doorstep, a wedding at Odo’s makes a natural starting point for a few days away. Breathtaking countryside, great places to eat and no reason to rush home the morning after.
For guests who want to stay close, there’s a local pub within walking distance, and Ashford is around ten minutes away for hotels and direct train connections. Glamping in the meadow is also available for those who’d rather stay under canvas.
Charlotte is happy to share local recommendations, and there’s a full list on the accommodation page.
