Cooling Castle Barn has become Kent’s favorite wedding venue for many compelling reasons. The facility offers three barns for hire, including The Fathom Barn that hosts the marriage ceremony, the Tithe that hosts the wedding breakfast and the Heritage that hosts the guest reception. The spectacular grounds are complemented by the large, open space within the barns and the staff’s professional and courteous service.
John Cobham built Cooling Castle between 1380 and 1385. The fortress was built on the marshes’ edge to protect the Thames River from invaders. Now, the building stands about two miles inland and has fallen into ruin, although musician Jools Holland has established a private residence inside its walls. The twin drum tower gatehouse as well as the exquisite garden both remain in good condition. Both features provide elegant backdrops for wedding pictures and other impromptu photos.
Couples may locate their wedding ceremony in one of two different locations. The wedding may take place in the Fathom or may take place outdoors, depending on conditions and on the wishes of the couple. Additionally, a Toastmaster works for the facility to ensure that couples have a well-run and pleasant day. The Toastmaster worries about the logistics so that couples can focus on enjoying one of the most important days of their lives.
Cars 4 Weddings provides car service that arrives at the towers. The car drives to the reception at the barn, where the driver is greeted by the Toastmaster so that plans for the day can be arranged. Then, the driver waits until the marriage service has ended before taking couples on a short countryside tour, serving champagne according to the couple’s request. When the vehicle returns to the castle, the wedding photographer awaits the couple and snaps photographs of both the car and the towers of the castle in the background.
Guests gather in the gardens to await the arrival of the bride and groom after their countryside tour. When the photographer has finished with his duties, the car chauffeurs the couple into the gardens, circling the lawn so that assembled guests may cheer for the happy couple. The car waits as guests take photographs and as the photographer finishes up any final wedding shots.
