Laughton Barns provides the perfect back-drop to a country wedding, with 84 acres of lush lawns and 2 lakes, along with two gorgeous barns – it really is the perfect venue.

Laughton Barns is Managed and Catered by Circa Events. With over 25 years’ experience in the wedding industry, we can help you create the wedding you have always dreamed of. We have a wealth of experience in both catering and event organising, and our expert wedding co-ordinators will make sure that your day runs smoothly from beginning to end.

The venue runs from May-October each year and offers both indoor & outdoor Ceremony Venues – so your ceremony can take place at Laughton Barns whatever the weather!

The stunning Apple Barn is licensed for your ceremony. With beautiful views, your outdoor ceremony is in a truly magical setting, with the option to hold your ceremony inside our marquee should the weather dictate otherwise. Following your ceremony, we encourage you and your guests to enjoy the acres of land for photographs and activities, retiring to the Crown Barn terrace for your drinks reception. Guests can enjoy the grounds with garden games, bouncy castles and sports – there is plenty of space for all. The venue is a gorgeous Sussex Barn Wedding Venue, built in the original Sussex Barn style.

The Crown Barn is ideal for your wedding celebrations, accommodating 180 guests for the wedding breakfast. The barn was hand-built using local oak, brick and stone and has been fantastically finished with exposed beams and a gothic-inspired chandeliers. The barn’s features are modern yet rustic and provide the ideal canvas for your reception. Additionally, an entire side of the barn can be opened up to let the outside in; you can have the feel of an outdoor event without the commitment to unpredictable weather. Our paved drinks reception area is beautifully sheltered by stunning willow trees, creating a relaxed place in which to enjoy a few refreshments and your guests’ company, with benches, outdoor seating, our pop up bar and even fire pits in the evening.

Toilets, dancefloor and bar are included as part of the venue; with low sofas and tables there are many places for guests to rest their weary feet after a long day of celebration. Also included in our venue hire for this venue is our Resident DJ, who will encourage your guests onto the dancefloor for a night of partying they will never forget. Our finish time at Laughton is 11:30pm and we typically hold one wedding a week at the venue.

At Circa Events, we pride ourselves on offering couples a flexible approach to their wedding breakfast. We can cater for every need, whether that’s a four-course fine dining meal with delicate canapés, or sharing boards, or a feasting BBQ served to your guests ‘family style’.
