Case Study: Creating A Chill-Out Zone For K&L

What an amazing weekend we had celebrating the wedding of K&L.

With all three arms under the Melt Umbrella being utilised this weekend, we were able to show what we could do at our best.

Melt Productions sorted the audio-visuals, Melt Bars quenched everyone’s thirsts, and Melt Weddings managed the day and transformed the ceremony tent post-ceremony into a chill-out zone for guests to shelter from the ever-changing weather. 

A chill-out zone can be such a thoughtful addition to the guest experience; providing somewhere to take 5 minutes and re-centre. Our goal was never to take away from the reception tent and the rest of the event, but to provide an area for guests to regroup and recharge in a cosy atmosphere away from the unpredictable weather.

With a blank canvas, roughly drawn-out plans and a vision, we knew how we wanted the chill-out zone to look - but it was all going to come down to the feel. 

The weather in the UK has been super unpredictable as of late - switching from beautiful sunshine and a light breeze, to hammering rain and storm-like winds. We knew our little safe-haven had to feel warm and welcoming for the guests to enjoy it and make the trip from the other tent worth it.

Starting with 36 strawbales from  Countryside Events, a mixture of real plants and dried flowers, some Persian  rugs, some coloured uplighters, a boatload of candles and a sketch of what we wanted to create, we were determined to make the space feel snug and inviting. 

The styling was designed to match the wedding’s theme where boho meets the farm. Bringing in the Moroccan style added warming tones and a homely feel, allowing guests to find their calm.
