Why Atmosphere Matters at The Barn at Upcote


Professional entertainment is essential to making your celebration memorable. Cosmic Events DJs keep the dancefloor full, while photobooths capture fun, candid and group moments that your guests will treasure. Dancefloor monograms and themed lighting add a personalised touch, creating a unique and engaging atmosphere for your Barn at Upcote event.


  • Fairy lights add a magical, intimate glow that softens the space and creates a romantic ambiance.

  • Uplights can be customised to match your colour scheme, highlighting walls, columns, or floral arrangements.

  • Dancefloors can be an inviting space to encourage your guests to dance.

  • DJs provide the soundtrack that keeps guests engaged and dancing.

  • Photo booths capture candid moments and give guests a fun takeaway from the event.


Together, these elements work to make your event feel cohesive, lively, and memorable.


How DJs Enhance Your Wedding Experience


Music is the heartbeat of any celebration. A skilled DJ at The Barn at Upcote can read the room and adjust the playlist to keep energy levels high. Unlike a static playlist, a DJ interacts with guests, takes requests, and creates smooth transitions between songs.

Benefits of Hiring a DJ


  • Personalised playlists tailored to your tastes and event theme.

  • Professional sound equipment that fills the space with clear, balanced audio.

  • MC services to announce key moments and keep the event running smoothly.

  • Dance floor motivation that encourages guests to join in and celebrate.




For example, a wedding DJ can start with soft background music during dinner, then ramp up the tempo for dancing after the speeches. This flow keeps guests comfortable and entertained throughout the event.


Creating Magic with Fairy Lights and Uplights


Lighting transforms any space. Fairy lights and uplighting highlight the features of The Barn at Upcote, complement your colour scheme and set the perfect mood. Whether it is a romantic wedding, lively birthday party or corporate event, our lighting solutions make your celebration visually stunning and unforgettable.

Fairy Lights


Fairy lights are versatile and add a warm, twinkling effect. They work well:


  • Draped across ceilings or beams

  • Hung in clusters to create a starry effect




This lighting style is perfect for evening events, adding softness and charm without overpowering the space.
