Why Festival Style Weddings work so well at Upthorpe Wood

Festival Style Wedding Inspiration at Upthorpe Wood

With most of our Upthorpe Wood brides looking for a festival style wedding this year, we’ve got a few ideas for you.


A festival wedding is a really laid back type of wedding day, a day geared towards fun and laughter. A day for everyone to enjoy themselves to the max. It lacks the formal starchy, traditional wedding day... Upthorpe Wood is the perfect wedding venue if you're considering a festival style wedding...in the woods.


And Here's why...


Festival weddings generally consist of a variety of entertainment for guests throughout the wedding day from acoustic duos to glitter bars/henna bars right through to storytellers or donkey rides. Therefore you'll be looking for a venue with different areas, spaces to use...something which has more interest than just a field... So here at Upthorpe, with so many different and quirky areas, it’s really easy to provide entertainment timed throughout the day. From chill out spaces to acoustic areas, picnic spots to storytelling dens, there’s everything you need to make a truly unique festival style wedding day.



Evening food served from vintage trucks always works well, festival style, maybe timed alongside a cocktail hour at the bar. No table plans here... find a spot with friends, huddle the children on picnic blankets, kick back and relax! That’s what it’s all about. Laughter floating on the summer breeze, spending a precious day together with your closest friends and family.



The best day ever. And then the disco begins!!! Oh wow... get those dancing shoes on! Have you seen our recommended DJs? The best we’ve seen at the wood.




Did you know, we are big fans of Pinterest and have various festival wedding boards... everything from flowers to food. We’d love to see some of the photos recreated at Upthorpe Wood. Go on have a look and tell us what you think. We’ve specifically chosen pins that would all be possible at our gorgeous woodland venue. We love seeing things which haven’t been seen in the woodland before, there is some great entertainment for your guests out there.


Check out the website for our recommended wedding suppliers, all handpicked for their unique style. Choosing them will certainly take the stress out of your planning.

If you’d like to see more, or talk through your festival wedding just send us an email... we love hearing from you.
