What a day! From our first viewing at Eastfields to our wedding day, Scott and Laura were beyond amazing! A lovely pair! The setting, the barn, the peacocks and the accommodation had everything we were looking for. The barn is effortlessly beautiful and didn’t need any extra decorating to look great! It held a lively party of 120 perfectly. Scott and his team had everything under control, so on the day we could completely relax and trust in them. We had the best day ever!! I can’t thank them enough and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Eastfields for anyone planning a wedding!

We held our wedding day at EFB and we cannot recommend this venue highly enough. The flexibility to do the day as your own is a rarity now with wedding venues but EFB allowed us exactly that. The manicured property, barn and grounds are simply stunning, and the beautiful and high end accommodation on site meant our entire families could be with us for the whole 3 days. Such a fantastic bonus! Scott and Laura made everything incredibly calm and easy for us - from the first viewing, a return viewing, booking and on the big day - nothing was too much trouble for them and they went above and beyond to ensure the day ran smoothly and exactly as we wanted. We highly recommend booking your special occasion at EFB!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the one – the setting is absolutely beautiful and it created the most magical backdrop for our day. Scott, Laura and the team went above and beyond from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble, and their attention to detail made the whole experience stress-free. The day ran so smoothly and we felt completely looked after. So many of our guests commented on how incredible the venue was and we can’t recommend enough for anyone looking around Bedfordshire for a place to celebrate their wedding.

I remember visiting Eastfields for the first time after logging my interest via e-mail and having a speedy response to set up a visit and we now know nothing else would even come close to what Eastfields had to offer. We fell in love with the romantic approach to the barn and then everything else that followed. The wedding barn gave us the freedom to decorate how we wanted it for our own wedding however, it was dressed with beautiful white drapes, fairy lights and tables for the guests making it a lot less daunting to start from scratch. It also gave us the peace of mind to be able to have our wedding service indoors or outdoors. We loved the freedom of being able to choose our own vendors for all the services we required however, Scott & Laura were always on hand with advice and great recommendations for who worked well with them in the past. The luxurious accommodation and beautiful grounds were also a big selling point for us as it meant we could stay on site the night before and the evening of the wedding itself. From our first meeting with Scott & Laura to the wedding day itself we’ve always felt so comfortable and constantly reassured by their extremely professional approach and experience. On the wedding day itself nothing was too much trouble and they worked so hard to do whatever they could to take the worry away from us both and ensure the day ran as smoothly as it possibly could. They were always in the background quietly ensuring our day was perfect in every way which it absolutely was. We are extremely grateful to them both for making all of our wishes come true and for choosing Eastfields Farm Barns as the place we said ‘I do’! ❤️

We booked the venue 11 months before our big day, and from start to finish Scott, Laura and their team were incredible—attentive, supportive, and always happy to answer questions or arrange viewings. What makes Eastfield Farm Barns truly unique is the flexibility. Unlike many other venues, you can choose your own caterers, decorations, and entertainment, which means every couple can create a day that’s completely personal to them. Alongside this freedom, the venue also provides the essentials—tables, chairs, a dancefloor with bright lights, stunning new chandeliers, and even a disco ball—making it so easy to style the space exactly as you wish. Scott and Laura go above and beyond to help bring your vision to life. They’re full of great recommendations, open to ideas, and genuinely care about making your day unforgettable. Another highlight is the on-site accommodation. With three separate barns, there’s plenty of space for guests as well as for the bride and groom to get ready separately. It felt like we had our very own wedding getaway, which made the whole experience even more special. The setting itself is breathtaking—surrounded by greenery and idyllic countryside views, with the option to celebrate outdoors or inside the beautifully converted barn. It gives you the best of both worlds. We cannot recommend Eastfield Farm Barns enough. It’s not just a venue, it’s an experience that gave us memories we’ll treasure forever. We’re already looking forward to returning for a family getaway in the future!
