Weddings

Our rustic American style Barn is a great Reception space. Solidly built out of corrugated iron, steel and timber, it is generously proportioned with a 19 X 16 metre floor space plus an additional 16 X 4 metre covered outdoor terrace, and a ceiling that peaks at 8 metres. It comfortably seats up to 130 guests with enough room for a dance floor.

You may choose your own caterer, and we can recommend caterers who work at Stanley Park regularly due to their amazing food and reasonable prices, see the Suppliers list below for our suggestions.

The Barn suits all styles of weddings from glamorous Gatsby to elegant vintage, minimalist industrial and Lux Boho. Timber and glass doors across the front of the barn allow guests to enjoy tranquil views of Fullerton Cove, stunning sunsets, and lush green lawns surrounding the barn.

Indoor lighting is ambient and adequate, with fairy lights covering the ceiling and drop Edison globes suspended throughout. Lanterns hang from hooks on chains suspended from the 8 metre ceiling, and these can be swapped for anything you or your designer might like to hang, eg chandeliers, candelabras, greenery.

The terrace outside the barn is lit with fairy lights and festoons, which throw a nice light across the lawn in the evening.

For Winter weddings our Chiminee fireplace will keep your guests warm and create a cosy atmosphere.

Drinks are BYO and must be served by RSA certified bar staff (provided by your caterer or by Stanley Park) for the entire duration of the function. The Bar will close at or before 11pm and the property will close at or before midnight. See the Suppliers section below for RSA staff and drinks van vendors.
