A Party Like No Other
Wow, this Crips barn wedding was like no other I have ever attended with high energy lots of music and dancing from the moment I arrived. Arriving at cute little Airbnb that Natalie had booked for her preparations I was greeted by no less than eight bridesmaids! During bridal preparations having kept a close eye on Natalie’s Instagram feed I knew this would have a party feel. Every story she posts shows her partying in a different part of the world and I knew today would be the same.
Once everybody had been made up and was in their gown, it was time for the reveal to the bridesmaids and Dad. The girls couldn’t believe the dress that Natalie had chosen, with off the shoulder sleeves and a cathedral length veil. Dad however, was blown away at the sight of his little girl. Now fully grown up, and looking great, he broke down in tears as they shared a hug before leaving for the venue.
Arrival at Cripps Barn for the Wedding
Cripps Barn by the time I arrived had already become a party venue. With over 100 guests ready to see Natalie & Ant marry it was a very busy day. Natalie’s arrival down the aisle with her dad was proceeded by the bridesmaids who all got the front row seat to the show. The ceremony itself was short and concise with two readings, one being a personally written poem by a close friend. Upon leaving the ceremony, the bride and groom walked a confetti line where they were showered from all angles.
This then allowed for lots of time for the guests to congratulate the happy couple. During the drinks reception Natalie had arranged for a saxophonist to play mainly the Ibiza dance classics. This saw an abundance of people dancing the afternoon away as they enjoyed their drink. As group shots followed before everybody was called in for the wedding breakfast with the sun still shining, we were excited for speeches.
Speeches
Mum and dad went first with speeches being very keen to embarrass Natalie about her childhood and very well succeeded. After the Wedding breakfast, Ant gave his speech, thanking close relatives, grooms party, with a mention to his original best man who unfortunately couldn’t be with us to celebrate. Next up were the best men. Determined to embarrass Ant and share some of their favourite memories they managed tears and laughter around the room.
With the wedding breakfast was drawing to close, guests were ushered outside to witness the champagne tower. Natalie began by shaking champagne like she had won the F1. This made sure everybody was covered before Ant did the same. Then very carefully they began to fill up the glasses on the champagne tower before sharing them around. Natalie had also requested for a smoke bomb photograph which was completed on the hill to the rear of the venue. This worked really really well with such a large bridal party, definitely one to find in the gallery.
Time to Party
The evening party was full of dancing, shoulder rides, hugs and kisses and lots of pizza. As I stayed on for that little bit extra knowing this party was going to kick off I’m very glad that I did as the dancefloor shots reflect the vibe of the true vibe of the party.

The Historic Charm of Cripps Barn in the Cotswolds
Cripps Barn, located in the idyllic Cotswolds, is a quintessential English countryside wedding venue that perfectly marries rustic charm with refined elegance. Situated near the village of Bibury in Gloucestershire, Cripps Barn is one of the most sought-after venues for couples looking to celebrate their big day in a setting that exudes historical significance and natural beauty.
A Glimpse Into the History of Cripps Barn
Cripps Barn is part of the Cripps & Co family, a well-respected company renowned for its collection of beautifully restored, character-rich wedding venues across the UK. The barn itself dates back to the 18th century, a time when the Cotswolds were flourishing as a centre for wool production. The region’s prosperity during this period is evident in the barn’s construction, with its Cotswold stone walls and original timber beams reflecting the craftsmanship of the era.
Cripps Barn has been meticulously restored to retain its historic features while incorporating modern amenities, making it a perfect blend of old-world charm and contemporary comfort. The barn’s authentic features, such as the flagstone floors, soaring ceilings, and large open fireplace, provide a romantic and atmospheric setting that transports you back in time.

Cripps Barn is ideally located just a short drive from the charming village of Bibury, often described as one of the most beautiful villages in England. Bibury is famous for its picturesque Arlington Row, a series of historic weavers’ cottages that date back to the 14th century and are often featured in postcards and travel guides.
Another nearby attraction is Cirencester, known as the “Capital of the Cotswolds.” This market town is rich in history, with notable sites such as the Corinium Museum, which showcases the town’s Roman heritage, and the impressive Cirencester Park.

Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several weeks of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?
Hi this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
