Memorable Wedding Celebrations at Hayne Barn

We recently catered an intimate autumn wedding at Hayne Barn. This charming rustic venue sits in the heart of Devon countryside. The venue combines historic charm with natural beauty perfectly.

Our clients, Emily and Thomas, chose us for our local sourcing commitment. They wanted their menu to reflect Devon’s autumn landscape. We worked closely with the couple to develop the perfect three-course menu.

Why Couples Choose Hayne Barn

Hayne Barn’s rustic stone walls create the perfect romantic atmosphere. The exposed oak beams add historic character to every celebration. The venue accommodates up to 80 guests comfortably. This intimate setting allows us to provide truly personal service.

Creating the Perfect Autumn Menu

We transformed locally sourced ingredients into an exceptional wedding feast. The menu celebrated Devon’s finest seasonal produce. Every dish honored traditional flavours with contemporary flair. The result delighted guests months after the celebration.

Duck Liver Pâté with Chorizo Jam and Toasted Brioche

We opened the celebration with our signature duck liver pâté. Local Devon farms supplied the fresh duck for this rich starter. Our chefs create the smooth pâté using traditional techniques.

The Perfect Flavour Combination

Our house-made chorizo jam adds sweet and spicy contrast. The jam complements the creamy pâté texture beautifully. We serve each portion with warm, toasted brioche.

Fresh Local Ingredients

We make the brioche fresh using organic flour. Local Devon butter creates the perfect buttery texture. This elegant starter sets the tone for the entire celebration.

Burrow Farm Ruby Red Beef Cheek Braised in Otter Vale Ale

Our main course showcased ruby red beef cheek from Burrow Farm. This respected Devon supplier practices ethical farming methods. We slowly braised the beef cheek in Otter Vale ale.

The Slow-Cooking Process

The slow-cooking process takes over 12 hours. This technique creates incredibly tender meat. Guests can cut the beef with just a fork.

Local Devon Accompaniments

We add smoked bacon from local Devon producers. This creates depth and complexity in every bite. Heritage carrots, parsnips, and red cabbage complete the dish.

Supporting Local Community

All vegetables come from farms within 20 miles of Hayne Barn. This ensures peak freshness for every plate. We support the local community with every ingredient choice.

Seasonal Perfection

Peppered pears add subtle sweetness to balance the rich beef. Every element creates perfect harmony on the plate. The presentation matches Hayne Barn’s rustic elegance.

Lemon Posset with Roast Quince, Honey and Sesame Shortbread

We concluded with our signature lemon posset. This traditional English dessert provides the perfect light ending. Langage Farm supplies the double cream we use.

Traditional Techniques

Fresh lemons create the ideal tartness balance. The cream comes from just outside Dartmoor. We achieve perfect posset texture every time.

Autumn Flavours

Roast quince pairs beautifully with local wildflower honey. We add warming spices for seasonal appeal. The quince develops complex flavours through slow roasting.

Homemade Shortbread

Our sesame shortbread uses local Devon butter. Sea salt from the Devon coast enhances the flavour. Sesame seeds add subtle nuttiness to each bite.

Beautiful Presentation

We plate each element for stunning visual impact. The dessert tastes as amazing as it looks. This creates the perfect sweet conclusion to the celebration.
