A Wildflower Meadow at Upwaltham Barns

If you’re planning a countryside wedding and looking for a romantic barn wedding venue in West Sussex, Upwaltham Barns offers the perfect combination of rustic charm and natural beauty. In June, our enchanting wildflower meadow comes into full bloom, creating a picture-perfect setting for your summer wedding photography.

From the end of May into July, the wildflower meadow at Upwaltham Barns transforms into a vibrant display of colour and texture. June is when it reaches its peak, with Ox-eye daisies, bright buttercups, Prunella Vulgaris, Devils-bit Scabious and Centaurea Nigra creating a beautiful carpet of flowers. This stunning meadow is an unforgettable backdrop for wedding photography, adding a dreamy, countryside feel to your special day.

A Natural Backdrop for Your Barn Wedding

Many couples who choose to get married at Upwaltham Barns are inspired by the surrounding South Downs landscape and choose floral styling that brings the outside in. The East Barn, licensed for civil ceremonies, looks out onto the wildflower meadow through large double doors, allowing natural light and floral views to flow into your ceremony space. Florists often create flower arches and meadow-style aisle arrangements to create a seamless blend between indoors and out.
