BARN-STYLE MARQUEE

Our 24m x 9m marquee gives you space for dining, speeches, dancing and evening entertainment all in one place.

Our Funktion-One sound system, lighting rig and stage are already on site, which can reduce the amount of additional equipment your DJ or band needs to hire.

YOUR OWN CATERERS & SUPPLIERS

Choose the food, entertainment, florists, photographers and suppliers that suit your wedding rather than being tied into a fixed package.

THE MOONACRE BAR

Our on-site bar sits right at the heart of the wedding area, with our team taking care of drinks throughout the celebration.
