⛰ Textures and colours...
When plotting your styling for a venue like ours, consider what is happening here already. We have some lovely tones and textures around the place which could help you design your event.
------------------------------------
Are you blending or contrasting?
Blending would be pastels, pales and rustic elements.
Contrasting would be brights, darks and modern forms.
------------------------------------
We have seen a mixture and know what will look great, what will work logistically and what is worth the effort and cost.
Have a chat with our Wedding Manager, Annabel. about ideas and style details to help you make the most of your time and budget.
(Everyone who books our old barn gets two consultations with our resident professional by the way!!)

Happy planning!! 🫶

Are you thinking of a DIY wedding in a beautiful barn in the Lake District? If so, look no further than Barn in the Fells. It is just the venue for your special day!

One of our past couples said if they would recommend Barn in the Fells. "Definitely. It's stunning, so brilliant and interesting to bring our guests to a working farm, and Sharon and Hogg couldn't have been more helpful. It really feels like a special venue because they don't do weddings every weekend, so your wedding feels like a really big deal and a special occasion. They really went above and beyond.”

A little tip for your wedding day from Barn in the Fells!

Are you going to have a wedding cake at your wedding? If so, think about how you can make it sustainable.

Sustainable Wedding Cake...how exactly does this work? Well...
⛰ Use local bakers and local ingredients .
⛰ Using fruits and flowers - keep them seasonal.

⛰ Transformational....

In more ways than just physically, we have transformed. Just look at the Sheep Yard!!!!! Hard to remember it being like that!

As each area has been worked on then celebrated in, we have learnt and grown as a team. Its been bloody fantastic as well as hard work!

Dates are disappearing for this year and the next so we have put what we have on the website. You can also book a tour there! ✨

⛰ Lighting plays a huge part.
We have noticed that this barn can create its own wonderful shadows and shapes but there are many ways of using your suppliers too to add atmosphere.

Check out:
Fairy lights (walls, ceiling, starlight walls, wrapped, paths)
Festoons (ceilings, externals)
Edisons (chandeliers, hoops, arches, clusters)
Candles (tables, windowsils, outside, feature tables)
Party (coloured, moving, lasers, strobe)

What have you booked or started thinking about?

We have some fab suppliers to lean on for advice too. These lot know us and the barn which is helpful!:




For any more options, have a look at our Wedding Managers list:
