Winners at The Wedding Industry Awards

At Rivervale Barn we like to look after our wedding couples. So winning the award for Best Events Team in London and The South East at The 2015 Wedding Industry Awards really did mean a lot to all the team.

After deciding to enter the awards at the very last minute – our first ever entry in the competition! – we weren’t too sure about our chances. So you can imagine, when we won the coveted title and received all the phenomenal feedback from recent brides, we were completely overwhelmed!

What makes the award even more special is that it’s voted for by you. It’s not something arbitrarily judged by the wedding industry, we’re not assessed by someone wondering around the venue with a clipboard and black marker… the awards are the voice of couples who’ve experienced Rivervale on their special day.

Some of the lovely comments included:

“From the moment we booked we knew we had made the right choice. The staff were excellent and many of our suppliers came at their recommendation. The day was faultless. The staff were always there when you needed someone, never there when you didn’t. Reception was perfect, nothing was ever too much hassle.”

“The team at Rivervale Barn are truly deserving of this award. They worked with us to understand in detail how we wanted our day to run. This meant on the actual day we were not bothered at all, the day just ran seamlessly and it was truly perfect. Lots of our guests commented on how professional and welcoming the staff were. The food also got lots of praise – it was incredible, the quality was exceptional!”

If you’ve already visited us, or perhaps you’ve had your wedding here, you’ll know how passionate our expert on-site catering team are about weddings. Weddings the sole purpose of the Barn and we give 110 per cent to make sure each and every special day at Rivervale is perfect.

You are the ones that bring our beautiful venue to life, so the Events Team are more than happy to cater to your every need. We adore seeing your vision and big-day come together and feel honoured that we can be involved in the process and play a part in your special celebration.

Being a family run venue, Rivervale also has a home-from-home, relaxed atmosphere. Couples are welcomed from the moment they arrive on their first visit right through to their wedding day – where we look after you and your guests from start to finish.

With a Rivervale wedding there’s no need to have a bridezilla moment or weeks of big-day stress. We’re here to support you with whatever wedding queries or problems you have and happy to take calls or visits from you at any time during the planning process. And on your wedding day, all you’ve got to do is turn up and enjoy yourself – we’ll sort out all the rest!
