We were back at Wasing Park again recently to install this large gathered fairy light canopy in the Castle Barn. It’s a great wedding venue and the lights really help to make it feel special.

Festoon lights are a great way to light outdoor areas at your wedding. They can be hung overhead or strung informally between trees and buildings for a fabulous, rustic effect. Festoons give a lovely warm light, and the multiple bulbs spread light evenly to eliminate shadows.

Another visit to the Great Barn at Manor Farm in Ruislip. We wound the pillars with fairy lights with a double swag of lights in between. This barn is big and beautiful, and always looks great with a little added sparkle!

We’re very excited to have added a set of large, 12 arm white / ivory chandeliers to our hire stock (we also have black but haven’t managed to take a photo yet!)

They’re absolutely gorgeous and would look amazing on their own or as the central feature of a fairy light or festoon canopy.

Here are a couple of quick photos – hopefully we’ll have some better photos soon. We can’t wait to install them in a venue for the first time.

Another chance to visit the fabulous Monks’ Barn in Hurley, this time installing chandeliers and fabric ceiling drapes in the main barn along with a giant mirror ball and disco equipment in the smaller dance barn.

We love the Monks’ Barn – always a pleasure to work there!

Here’s a photo of one of our recent fairy light canopies. This barn was enormous! The fairy lights were installed in a high density parallel canopy across the beams and then the beautiful pom poms, which were hand-made by the bride and groom, were added.

Stunning!

We firmly believe that the lighting for your evening entertainment deserves just the same care and attention to detail as the rest of your day. A few carefully chosen, coordinated effects can make the difference between a good party and a night to remember forever.

This beautiful photo was taken at a recent wedding where we supplied the DJ along with synchronised, colour-changing uplighting, a mirror ball suspended from the wooden beam above the dance floor, and a set of moving heads sweeping patterns and colours around the room.

A simple, elegant scheme of warm golds was the order of the day at the Monks’ Barn. We combined a huge fairy light canopy in the main barn with gold uplighting and a pair of crystal chandeliers in the smaller barn. Whatever the weather, using all gold lighting gave the barn a fantastic warm glow. Magic!

Fairy lights are fantastic but if you’re looking for something a little different, festoon lighting is worth considering. It provides good ambient light and the larger bulbs are a stylish touch to suit country fayre, vintage and elegant weddings.

Here are some photos of our festoon light canopy with gold uplighting at a wedding in the beautiful Monk’s Barn in Hurley.

The Great Barn is part of the Manor Farm estate and dates from around 1280. At almost 40m long, and with 12 pillars this barn is one of the largest we’ve worked at. A stunning space.

The beautiful Tithe Barn at Great Foster’s, Egham is one of our favourite venues. Superb staff and a location steeped in history make this a polished and elegant choice for a wedding. The barn works brilliantly with fairy lights, which make the large space warmer and more intimate.

The Stables at Tewin Bury Farm is a gorgeous, intimate venue for smaller weddings. Lanterns and fairy lights took the cosy and intimate feel to a new level and complemented the bunting, lace sashes, tea cups and birdcages for this vintage barn wedding beautifully.
