Outside, outside, outside!
A ‘barn wedding’ naturally involves a barn. Or do you prefer to work in an open garden or meadow? One thing is certain: in Belgium it is best to take into account possible rain or cool temperatures. So a tent is a ‘must have’, but don't worry: there are super cute formats and tent concepts. Very cool tents you can use for a barn wedding are, for example, the ‘Silhouette’ tent or a frame tent finished with wood.

Homey atmosphere
A barn wedding needs a homely, cosy atmosphere. Flags with your initials or a nice quote, warm white or coloured lanterns, strings of lights... Think ‘country chic’ with a casual touch. Wood elements give the whole thing a rustic look. Seat your guests on wooden benches, and let them sit at long tables made of authentic oak. Or create a seating area of cool wooden stools or old-school straw bales - covered with a blanket! Femat is the ideal partner to furnish your wedding hall. With their extensive collection of rental equipment, Femat caters for every style!
A band with a bluegrass repertoire completes the welcome to your guests! A welcome sign will also create a pleasant entrance for your guests! Discover them at our partners. Or, ask a duo of voice and guitar to prepare a customised playlist!
Good food
How about a super tasty BBQ or some cosy food trucks with homemade dishes for your guests to feast on? Tip: Have a mobile bar prepare cocktails for your guests. Original, right? Bet they'll join the bar more than once....

Country chic
Have you already thought about your styling as a bride, of your future one, of the bridesmaids... ? A boho wedding dress with lots of lace details in an off-white colour is the perfect match within the ‘barn’ theme. Keep your outfit and your overall look somewhat ‘casually chic’. Opt for soft make-up, and wear your hair in wavy locks or loosely tied up, possibly with a floral crown. The bridesmaids will shine in warm earth tones. For the groom, a dark grey or brown suit with waistcoat will look softer than a black suit.
