Supplier spotlight: Heath Farm Weddings
Successful events are like piecing together a jigsaw puzzle. At Katah Events we are lucky to regularly work with lots of brilliant people working their magic in the events world. In this series of posts, we take a closer look at our preferred suppliers.
Choosing a venue for a tipi wedding
What should you look for in an outdoor wedding venue? If you’re drawn to the idea of an outdoor reception but still want the convenience of a more traditional venue for your guests, at a location such as Heath Farm near to Chipping Norton you can get the best of both worlds.
As well as its farmhouse and self-catering cottages combining traditional honey coloured Cotswold stone cottages with Andalusian terracotta tiled roofs, Heath Farm has 70 acres of stunning woodland and meadows. This means that as well as Visit England Gold Standard accommodation in this desirable corner of the Oxfordshire Cotswolds, there is also plenty of space to play with.
“Tipi weddings are at their best when the tents can highlight the surrounding natural beauty – and there’s no shortage of gorgeous landscapes and sweeping vistas at Heath Farm.”
“One could say the highlight is the sheer beauty of the setting and cottages, others may say it's the peace, tranquility, ambiance and connectivity with nature itself,” says Mon Barbour of Heath Farm. “For us as an events venue it's the sheer scope of possibilities that we can cater for.”
‘Only the finest and most reliable suppliers’ of weddings in Oxfordshire
At Katah Events we are delighted to be a supplier of this exclusive venue. Tipi weddings are at their best when the tents can highlight the surrounding natural beauty – and there’s no shortage of gorgeous landscapes and sweeping vistas at Heath Farm. A stunning courtyard, complete with water feature, also has a magnificent archway offering views down to the boating pond and beyond. The venue offers commanding views of the Swere valley and beyond – a dreamy rural wedding backdrop.
For Mon, flexibility for the client is key. “Each wedding or event is a personal bespoke package that is constructed using only the finest and most reliable suppliers,” he says, while emphasising that, “we can organise as much or as little as a client wants.”
“We work closely with Katah Events to make sure the tipis and interiors are perfect for the client and also Hotel Bell Tent who supply additional glamping accommodation for guests. We also work closely with our other recommended suppliers which includes a cocktail bus, caterers, florists, photographers, spa services, vintage props hire and car hire.”
