Charlotte & Russell's Southend Barns Summer Wedding
Having got engaged back in May 2015, Lottie and Russ married in early June this year at Southend Barns. This modern/rustic venue very much nestled in the Sussex countryside, is actually only a short 15 minute drive from the beautiful sandy South Coast Wittering beaches. On that morning, as I glimpsed through the arched gateway at the grassy green courtyard, I thought how turquoise the sky looked - almost ocean-like as the wispy white clouds appeared like little breakers, and the bright canopy peaks in the venue's entrance like white sails against the vivid blue.

Local to Chichester, at the foot of the scenic South Downs, established vineyards neighbouring Art's father's farm are where these successful winegrowers are well known for their tours, wine tasting and even onsite luxury accommodation. Always generously looking after other people and with such style, it was clear that Jody and Art would continue to be lavishing their warm hospitality on everyone, even on their own wedding day!
