👰✨ REAL WEDDING ✨👰

August at the farm couldn't have been more perfect for E&A's wedding day.
From the moment guests arrived, everything came together so effortlessly... elegance, charm, laughter, and above all, an overwhelming sense of happiness.

With clear blue skies overhead and soft summer light across the farm, the setting needed very little styling. The backdrop simply complemented the day, allowing the love, joy and celebration to take centre stage.

Simple. Timeless. Unforgettable.

POV: This is where outdoor weddings reach perfection at The Oak Barn, Frame Farm. 🤍
A huge thank you to & for allowing us to be part of such a beautiful celebration.

✨👰PLANNING A WEDDING CEREMONY? Save this for later 👰 ✨

At The Oak Barn, Frame Farm, couples can choose from three licensed barns or our sun-soaked west-facing terrace for outdoor “I dos”... which means every ceremony here feels completely personal.

A few ceremony planning tips we always share with our couples:
• Reserve the front rows for immediate family, wedding party members, and anyone special you’d love closest to you
• Decide in advance who’s responsible for the rings (and keep them somewhere safe before the ceremony!)
• Download your ceremony playlist ahead of time, including: guest arrival music, aisle song, signing songs, your exit track. 🎵
• Repurpose ceremony flowers and styling later in the day to get the most from your décor investment
• If you’re dreaming of an outdoor ceremony, always have a weather backup plan you genuinely love too
• And most importantly: no matter where you say your vows, the moment will be unforgettable because you’re marrying your person. 🤍

✨📸 GROUP SHOT TIPS 📸✨

Five things you need to know…
1. It’s probably the only time in your life that all “Your People” will be together in one place, so wedding group shots aren’t optional… they’re a MUST! ❤️

2. Tradition stays, but stiff and formal is OUT. Think playful, lively, energetic and full of personality.

3. Trust your wedding photographer.... they know where the best light is, when the timing is right and when the moments feel natural, relaxed and real.

4. Make time for it in your wedding timeline. Have you ever tried moving 100 wedding guests in under 5 minutes? We have. 😉

5. Hold off on the drinks and distractions for just a little longer. Group photos shouldn’t feel like a chore; they’re part of the celebration too.

And THEN… let the party begin 🥂✨

🥂🍹 PIMP YOUR BAR 🍹🥂

We LOVE a fun, quirky wedding bar! Of course it’s not the star of the show… but it’s definitely a talking point, so don’t settle for ordinary!

At The Oak Barn, we have two stunning oak bars built from our own oak trees; an evening bar inside The Oak Barn and a show-stopping 4m eco bar in the Pole Barn, brand new for 2026! 🌿🍸

And if two bars still aren’t enough… why not build or bring your own DIY bar set-up?
Add your personality, get creative and make it completely unique to you.
Think apple crates, personalised signage, cocktail hour, Kilner jars, champagne towers, live mixologists and all the fun finishing touches. 🍹💫
