The history of Stanford Farm wedding venue near Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Stanford Farm, Shropshire Wedding and Events Venue

We are delighted to showcase our family farm venue for weddings and events in beautiful West Midlands countryside. If you are dreaming of an exclusive rustic wedding, a wedding in a barn or a full on festival theme, on a family farm, then Stanford Farm is the perfect rural setting for your big day. You can hire our farm venue for your three day, exclusive use wedding. Stanford Farm, near Shrewsbury is nestled in idyllic Shropshire farm land and is now a fourth generation family owned farm dating back to the 16th century. We are looking to share our history whilst bringing new life and zest into the farm with our events.

Stanford Farm has been in our family 100 years, photos below circa 1930s...

We have extensive grounds for marquees, teepees, cocktail bars, bell tents, hay bales or any set up you may require. We even boast full on-site camping facilities as well as the 5 bedroom farmhouse and shepherd’s hut which will allow your guests the freedom to stay with you on your special day.

We are a fully licensed wedding venue and our packages are such that you will have three days to enjoy the ultimate wedding experience. We will hand over our farm to you to enjoy exclusive use from Friday to Sunday or Tuesday to Thursday. This will allow all of us plenty of time to work together to set up and clear down with no panic inducing time constraints! 

As much as we love being part of someone's big day, we are not only here for weddings. We also host spectacular birthday parties, family fun days and reunions and can offer your company an incredibly flexible and exciting space to conduct training courses and team building exercises. Whatever you are looking for, we pride ourselves on being able to accommodate all queries with a fast, professional turnaround and a "can do" attitude.

We are no stranger to major event management as Stanford Farm co-owner Cindy Edwards is also the festival director of L Fest, L Fest Del Mar (Spain) and Stanstock 7s. With our extensive network and experience you can rely on us to ensure that the only thing you need to focus on is enjoying your event. 


I know that lots of people find organising events a daunting task, but I love it and get a real buzz from people enjoying an event I have arranged. I like to take the stress from people and organise an event to remember. I know that whatever the event, it is your special day and I put every effort into making this day run simply & smoothly in a very relaxed manner. We can offer much more than just a venue with an onsite events management team.
