Celebrating in Barrington
A barn wedding or a field party here is a different kind of event. Floors might be old plank or packed gravel. The ceremony might be in a pasture, the dinner in the barn and the after-party on the patio. Chairs have to be steady, attractive from behind and easy to move between settings if the weather turns.
Many receptions happen in barns on private property. Ask the owner about flooring, power and where trucks can park.
Heating & cooling here: Old barns get cold and drafty in spring and fall. Forced-air tent heaters work better than patio heaters in large spaces.
Open fields are stunning but uneven. Mowing the ceremony area short a day or two before helps chairs sit level.
