Longbourn Barn Kineton - Crystal Chandeliers and White Drapes

Oakwood Events Blog Post

What an amazing hidden gem Longbourn Barn is, tucked away in the Warwickshire countryside with breathtaking views over the surrounding landscape. We were delighted to be invited back for another wedding in this superb location.

After talking through various options, the couple chose four of our gorgeous tiered crystal chandeliers, each one framed by a soft white fabric drape. Wireless LED uplighters and a large white backdrop on the stage finished off the look, all coming together to transform an already beautiful venue while working with its stunning existing features.

We suspended each of the large chandeliers from the centre of one of the large wooden beams, then added a white up-and-over style fabric drape (flame retardant, of course - safety first!) across the width of the barn.

To lighten the far end of the barn, we covered the existing black curtains at the back of the stage with a large white fabric backdrop (also flame retardant!), which was custom made to fit.

Finally, we added a set of wireless LED uplighters, highlighting the textured stone walls. The uplighters were wirelessly controlled from a touch screen near the stage so that the colour and mood of the room could easily be changed from day to night. The bright chandeliers were all linked to a powerful dimmer so that they could be lovely and bright during the meal and then turned right down to a cosy, soft glow for the evening.

What a fantastic job for such lovely people in a gorgeous barn. We love our job!
