Sissons Barn Full Description
Sissons Barn is a family run, privately owned wedding venue in Peakirk on the outskirts of Peterborough. We pride ourselves in providing a warm, relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We are so lucky to live and work on the farm and beautiful surrounding areas, which we would love to share it with you. Our approach is very personal, whatever you are planning, whether it is a lavish affair or a small intimate occasion, we are the place for you. We can give you the time and privacy to enjoy your wedding and share it with the people you love best without asking you to compromise on quality or romance. Sissons Barn offers a beautiful setting for your country wedding reception; your guests will enjoy the newly landscaped gardens with the backdrop of the surrounding Fenland countryside, which also provide stunning photographic opportunities. The gardens are an ever evolving scene with the Willow Room, large manicured lawn, shrubbery and herbaceous flowerbeds providing a rich and colourful background for a drinks reception on the lawn, games or photographs.

Perfect day
Sissons barn is the most beautiful and peaceful venue, we had such a lovely relaxed day. Right from the first booking Ben and Laura have been amazing, with booking pre pandemic and all the date changes to do with it they couldn't of done more. Then after the loss of my brother 2 months before our date last year they couldn't off been more supportive and understanding and letting me take my time and change the date to when we felt ready and helping me feel excited and bringing the joy back. The day and run up was so well organised even with my time guesses lol. We had the most amazing day and they made sure it all ran smoothly and nothing was to much trouble. Scarlett is also a treasure she is amazing and would do anything to help, even understanding how important one pumpkin was to us. We really picked the best place and with the best people

Truly magnificent: from start to finish!
Ben, Laura and their team were absolutely incredible throughout the whole process. From the initial meeting and viewing the venue, Ben was so warm and welcoming and the barn…we just fell in love. The barn is set in beautifully maintained grounds with the characteristics and charm of a traditional barn yet modernised. Nothing was ever too much trouble, communication was excellent and there really aren’t enough words to describe the care and support we received. You will be in very safe hands with this family run business and they will always have a special place in our hearts; our day wouldn’t have been what it was without their planning and dedication. We cannot recommend Sissons Barn and the team highly enough.

The most romantic wedding venue
This venue is so beautiful and romantic it captured our wedding day just the way we envisioned it. We instantly feel in love with the venue when visiting on an open day and automatically knew it was the one. Ben and Laura make it so special together as husband and wife and both have an understanding of the milestone of a day it is. Throughout the preparation towards the big day and the day itself they were so supportive of all the questions we had and just made the day perfect for us. We couldn’t have picked a better venue! The added extras of a tractor ride away for some personal photos and having an engraved copper leaf to put amongst the other married couples leafs on the metal trees was some of the sweetest unique touches the venue provides. It was honestly perfect and a dream come true.

Executed our vision extremely accurately
From the first contact until the wedding day itself… Sissons barn were absolutely amazing! It would be an understatement to say they were helpful. The sheer level of detail the Sissons team, particularly Ben, Laura & Scarlett put into making the day exactly what we wanted was fantastic. They executed our vision extremely accurately, the day before we dressed one table and they nailed the rest of them, this included communicating well with other professionals we had hired.

We throughly enjoyed our day from start to finish
We had such a lovely day at this beautiful venue, was definitely worth all the preparation and planning and Ben and Laura helped to make sure we throughly enjoyed our day from start to finish. Loved that we were able to enjoy our ceremony and reception all in one place which meant less traveling time and more time being able to enjoy our special day. I would definitely recommend to those still looking for their perfect wedding venue

Frequently Asked Questions
(10)

Describe the best wedding that happened at Sissons Barn?

The best weddings are those where the personalities For the couple shine through every aspect of the day. From table names, to personalise gifts. Quirky touches that work with the venue always look great and are so memorable to friends and family.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Get the suppliers that can't be in two places at once booked first so you don't miss out. For example venue, caterer, photographer, videographer.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

I love it when couples get their photographer to get a picture of them padlocking their personalised copper leaf to our steel trees. It lovely to remember their reactions when leaving a everlasting part of their wedding at the Barn.

Describe Sissons Barn in 5 adjectives

Relaxed, rustic, friendly, quirky and romantic.

Where’s the best photo spot at Sissons Barn?

As the sunsets behind the barn it creates a really dramatic sky and beautiful romantic photo opportunity. We also have a charming river that flows besides the property. You will have a chauffeur driven ride down to the river to capture the romance and you may even have some swans or cows join you in the background for your photos.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Sissons Barn?

Not yet, but that would be exciting!

What’s your favourite canapé?

My favourite canapés is a simple honey and mustard glazed mini sausages. Not very glam but sometimes you can't beat the basics.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

It makes me chuckle when guests grab a last handful of sweets of a cart before diving into a taxi! For me, after a long shift, its either a cup of tea or a large red.

What is Sissons Barn most unique feature?

The breathtaking high beams in the barn and all the unique attention to details, such as the rustic bent spanner door handles.

What part of your business are you most proud of?

I am proud of it all. We have worked very hard to not only run the business but the design and build of the whole barn itself. Its amazing to know we get to share in the special day of so many couples in something our family has created.
