Original Source: Halycon Days. A Styled Wedding Shoot at Lough House Farm, Northumberland
This gorgeous russet-toned styled shoot is brought to you by the clever team at Birdcages & Dragonflies – headed up by Jane – and her band of merry local suppliers and, let us tell you, it is the farm wedding shoot of dreams!
Bringing you lots of burnt oranges and warmth, unbelievable edible and paper creations, and an abundance of pretty florals, the shoot also showcases an element of awareness by involving environmentally conscious suppliers, proving you can still throw an amazing wedding but with a low environmental impact. Despite the autumnal palette, the rain held off for the whole shoot and we just love that the crew kept themselves going with copious amounts of homemade vegetable soup!
After the long break due to Covid19, the venue are delighted to be able to start showing couples around again, albeit whilst adhering to social distancing rules! If you like what you see here then get in touch to book your visit and make a start on planning your big day at Lough House Farm. Don’t forget to report back so we can feature your wedding on the Brides Up North site too!

INSPIRATION
Jane says: Lough House Farm is a new venue in the North East of England. It’s a blank canvas on a family run farm, so the idea of the shoot was to dress the whole venue as inspiration for couples to show how each area could be used. We opted to stay away from the traditional ‘rustic barn theme’ to show how versatile the space is. The farm has been in the family for many years and owners loved the idea of a shoot engaging local suppliers and having low environmental impact. The shoot was planned to run during the day, finishing around 4pm. All suppliers then took a break and set up small exhibition stations for an Elite Wedding Open Evening. We welcomed many prospective couples who loved how the barn was dressed and relished the opportunity to talk to environmentally conscious suppliers about their wedding days.
