BAaD - Barras Art & Design

We got married at BAad recently and had the most incredible day from start to end. Jess, the wedding manager, is outstanding, we cannot sing her praises enough. Planning our day with her was effortless and so stress free. She put our minds at ease every step of the way. Scott, Amy and the rest of the management team are fantastic and overall every member of staff is brilliant. The venue itself is so open and bright with a fantastic sound system! Jess and her team gave us the most fantastic day, decorating it exactly as we imagined, with a super quick turn around between ceremony, dinner and evening reception. Everything was taken care of, and we are so grateful to the entire team. If we were to do our day all over again, we wouldn't think twice about choosing anywhere else.

We had the most amazing wedding party here. Jess is absolutely fantastic in every way! She is friendly, so organised, details focussed but chilled at the same time. We loved working with her and all the team at BAaD. Everything was exactly as discussed, it flowed so well. They accommodated all our random ideas and executed it was precision. Our suppliers all commented on how great it was too! Best wedding ever from so many guests and it was all down to Jess and the team. Food and drinks were perfection, dance floor was full all night. If you want great vibes, have your wedding here!!! Photos by Claire Fleck.

What a great day we had at BAaD at Day Fever!! Day dancing is definitely the way to go. Fab venue, friendly staff-the perfect way to celebrate a birthday!!

Nothing BAaD about it! The most perfect day❤️ The biggest THANK YOU to the full team at BAaD! Their professionalism, attention to detail, kindness and hospitality made our wedding day the most perfect and stress free day there could be. Jess, Scott and the full team went above and beyond for all our family and friends ❤️ We loved the blank canvas of BAaD and how we were able to transform it into our dream setting! The drinks, food and overall atmosphere were just perfection! I would recommend BAaD as venue to everyone!

Experienced Taste of the Calton, six-part exclusive menu, dinner party with strangers which worked a treat. Every dish had a tale to tell linked with local produce intertwined with stories around the Barras and artists. Hosts were great, would highly recommend, something different and there's the chance to network with new faces!

We are so glad that we chose BAaD as our wedding venue and Jess was such a joy to work with from start to finish with all the planning. Scott was also brilliant on the day, as were all of the bar staff. They really made the day flow so well and go so seamlessly. BAaD will forever have a special place in our hearts now. Our guests all said what a fab venue it was and how good the music sounded in it too. The food was also delicious! Truly wish we could do it all over again ❤️ Anyone looking for a relaxed but fun vibe, with lots of natural light and plenty of space for dancing at night, this is the perfect venue! 🙌🏼
