BAaD - Barras Art & Design

We hosted our Fake Indian Wedding event at BAAD courtyard & it was overall an amazing experience. The management and staff are very helpful with every aspect of the event from booking, to execution on the day of the event. Excellent communication from Danielle, who also showed us around the venue prior to the booking. Scott the manager was very helpful on the day, so was each and every staff working on the day. Overall excelled venue and staff, Highly recommended.

After exploring eleven venues online, we were recommended BAaD and immediately fell in love with it from the moment we visited the website. Living in London, we took a chance that the venue would be BAadAss, and seeing it for the first time on our Wedding Day exceeded all expectations. Jess, the Events Planner, brought our vision to life with such care and precision, creating the atmosphere we ADHD dreamed of. Her communication and attention to detail throughout the entire planning process — from the early months to the final days — were exceptional. BAadAss. Day. Ever!

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.

1st class wedding venue I could not recommend BAAD highly enough as a wedding venue. From start to finish the organisation was first class. As soon as we visited the venue we knew it would be perfect! Particular mention needs to go to Jess, the wedding manager, who was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She made the whole process run smoothly from the first meeting right up to the big day. The venue is a lovely space. The food was excellent. The staff were fantastic. We couldn’t have asked for more. Everything ran perfectly in the background allowing us to enjoy the wedding and our guest loved every part of it! Our expectations were surpassed. Would highly recommend for a wedding and we’ll be making every effort to visit BAaD again soon :)

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.

I booked BaaD for my hen night and honestly couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. From start to finish, the team were absolutely brilliant. In the lead-up to the event, Danielle was incredibly helpful - no matter how many queries I sent her way, she was always friendly, professional, and quick to respond. She made the whole planning process so much easier and less stressful. On the night itself, the staff were lovely and really attentive. The space was perfect for our group, the atmosphere was great, and the whole venue was really clean - especially the toilets, which is always a big plus on a night out! The food was genuinely delicious and got lots of compliments from my guests. I also have to mention the security team - they were friendly, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly. Overall, it was such a special night and I’m so glad I chose BaaD. I’d definitely go back and would recommend it to anyone planning a special event!

Great venue. Good selection of food and drink. Nice staff. Had a good night out here for DJ Vance.

Wow what an event! Our first visit and we loved it. The staff are all so friendly and the venue itself was a great space, beautifully lit and warm. The jazz band were superb and Marianne McGregors voice was beautiful. Many of the musicians and Marianne have been nominated in Scottish jazz awards. It was a brilliant way to enjoy live music.
