It all goes by in a blur: the day of your wedding can be a whirlwind of people and emotions. One thing I hear again and again is advice to make time to pause, to take it all in. The phenomenon of the wedding whirlwind is one reason couples are looking to extend their celebrations. The Ferry House in Kent have come up with the perfect two-day wedding package so you can enjoy a relaxed couple of days with all of your guests.
I can picture it now: natural light pouring in as couples say “I do” in a truly unique setting. Guests taken aback as they enter the Spring Barn, beautifully decorated for every kind of wedding. The cathedral style ceiling and views over estuary waters making the perfect setting for a wedding in a relaxing, natural space. The cries of curlews as the sun sets over what promises to be one of Kent’s most sought-after venues for weddings 2026 & beyond.
I’m so excited to share this with you all! As regular readers will be well aware, The Ferry House wedding venue in Kent is a member of English Wedding and listed in our wedding supplier directory. They reached out to one of their favourite wedding suppliers, Chris Blackledge Photography, to ask him all about their venue! It’s a brilliant read – and wonderful to learn about a place from the perspective of a wedding photographer. (Of course we’ve got some amazing photos from Chris to share with you too!)
Much-loved Kent wedding venue, The Ferry House, has announced plans to build a beautiful new wedding barn in time for spring 2026 weddings. Set beside the stunning Swale estuary between the wild meadows and wetlands of the Isle of Sheppey, the existing Oak Barn, Oak Gazebo and Event Suite have hosted countless celebrations.
The new plans mark the latest in a series of enhancements to the venue over the last decade, including landscaped wedding gardens, a waterside Gazebo, The Coach House luxury accommodation and, most recently, the Garden Lodge – a second ‘readying room’. The next, exciting chapter is to replace the current Event Suite with a stunning new Wedding Barn.
This wedding is an absolute beauty!!! Faye & Dean styled their day with a fantasy book theme (I’d be on the Rain Wilds table, which I love!) The gorgeous pair got wed at The Ferry House, one of our favourite Kent wedding venues. Danny Jack was their photographer. The images are out of this world, and Danny gets a glowing review from Faye & Dean below!
