Jade and Paige were absolutely amazing. The Canary shed was the first venue we found online and after viewing a few others they just stood out above everyone else. Throughout the whole process they were so incredibly helpful and made sure everything fit within our budget and weren't just trying to sell us additional bits. They also made sure the day was how we wanted it to be rather than fitting into what is expected of a wedding. On the day, everything went absolutely seamlessly and they worked so hard to keep it all on track. We didn't need to lift a finger, they sorted everything. They were so friendly and so much fun to go through the process with. Jade was always available and quick to answer or sort anything we needed. Everything about the venue was perfect and we are still getting compliments on it. We can't thank Jade, Paige and the Canary shed enough for an absolute dream of a wedding. It would not have been possible without them. Without doubt, 5 star venue.

We made the best decision in getting married here!! The venue initially caught our eye because of the options to have whatever catering etc you want, the colourfulness and fun vibe it gives and it being dog friendly. We wanted our wedding to feel in some ways just like a big garden party and on a sunny day, this venue really delivered! It was such a big plus being able to stay onsite all weekend and we actually loved doing some setting up with our pals on the Friday and seeing our vision come to life. Jade and Paige were so helpful in the build up and were amazing on the day at checking in and just making sure everything ran so smoothly. If you’re considering getting married at the Canary Shed- go ahead and book!! You won’t regret it!

We had an amazing wedding here- Jade and the team are great and the venue is so colourful and beautiful and chill. It worked really well to stay on site with the family beforehand - it was very child and dog friendly, with lots of places for babies to sleep during the wedding too :) I would highly recommend.

We can’t get over how amazing our wedding was at the canary shed. Jade, Paige and the rest of the team can’t do more for you but at the same time so relaxed. They made the wedding planning process so easy. And during the wedding they were one step ahead of everything we needed. All our guests loved it and kept saying how a beautiful and unique the venue was. We loved how easy it is to make your day personal to what you want. So happy we choose the canary shed as you can celebrate all weekend not just one day which makes it more special. The lodges are beautifully decorated and all our guests had an amazing weekend. Couldn’t recommend the canary shed enough!
