The Benefits of On-site Accommodation at Your Wedding Venue

Picture this: it’s the morning after your wedding, and you are sitting around a breakfast table laden with delicious food and drink, surrounded by your closest friends and family, reminiscing about the amazing day you shared yesterday. Sounds like a dream, right?!

Well, it doesn’t have to be! If you choose a wedding venue with on-site accommodation, this dream scenario could be your reality. Here at Rivervale Barn, we know how important it is that your loved ones are well looked after, and in this blog post, we’ll explain exactly why we think on-site accommodation will really elevate your guests’ experience.

Unmatched convenience

Booking a wedding venue with its own accommodation on-site is the epitome of convenience. Once you’ve danced the night away and had your fill of delicious food and drink, how wonderful would it be to simply walk a few steps to a comfortable bed? There would be no need to worry about designated drivers, waiting for taxis, or catching the last train; everything you need would be right there on-site. This could be especially helpful for your family and friends who have travelled a long way, as they probably won’t be familiar with local transport options.

Start your celebrations early and get ready on-site, too! At Rivervale Barn, you and your wedding party can enjoy preparing for the day ahead in The Pamper Room. The space has been purpose-designed to give you the best start to the day, with hair and make-up stations and lots of natural light. You can even enjoy a bottle of bubbly and grazing boards whilst you get ready.

Unrivalled luxury

On-site accommodation also means a seamless continuation of the venue’s luxury. The comfort, style and décor will match the excellent service of your wedding and make the entire experience feel indulgent and special. Why not give your guests the chance to extend the extravagance a little longer?

Extended celebrations

Nobody wants their guests to leave the dancefloor early, and if they stay on-site, they’ll be able to enjoy every last minute of your celebrations!

Stress-free logistics

Booking a venue with accommodation simplifies logistics for everyone involved. No one has to worry about how they’ll get home after a long day of celebrating. This can be a particular relief for guests who have young children. It also ensures that everyone stays together, enhancing the sense of community and shared experience.

Enhanced guest experience

Your guests will appreciate your thoughtfulness in providing on-site accommodation. It shows that you’ve considered their comfort and convenience, which can make them feel even more special and valued. Plus, they’ll have more time to mingle and enjoy each other’s company without the pressure of needing to leave early.

Finding a venue with on-site accommodation

Choosing a venue with on-site accommodation will elevate your guests’ wedding experience, and in turn, you’ll feel happier knowing your guests are happy.

Here at Rivervale Barn, we’re proud to be launching our very own on-site guest accommodation, Rivervale Lodge. The beautiful new accommodation will consist of nine double bedrooms, one family room, and a breakfast room where everyone can gather the next morning. It will sleep up to 20 adults (plus 2 z-beds for children).

So, whilst you and your partner relax in our luxurious honeymoon suite, The Cornstore Cottage, you can feel confident that your guests are being well looked after right here on site.

What’s more, the celebrations can extend into the next day as you’ll be able to gather together in the breakfast room. As you enjoy a delicious breakfast together, you can share stories and laughs about the night before (and maybe recover in solidarity if anyone feels a little delicate!).

After breakfast, why not arrange to go for a country walk or explore the local area together before you go your separate ways?
