This wedding season, our Cane Backed Louis Chairs have quietly taken centre stage. Whether placed in the candlelit corners of a distillery or lined up in a historic country church, these graceful chairs have become the seating of choice for event stylists across the UK.
At BE Event Hire, we often don’t know precisely where our wedding furniture hire is headed until we spot it in action, thanks to social media. What we’re seeing from this season’s events is a consistent trend: the Cane Backed Louis Chair is more than just a practical option. It’s become a key styling feature that complements both refined and rustic settings beautifully.
Their appeal lies in their understated elegance. With a natural wood-effect resin frame and a classic cane back, these chairs bring a timeless charm to weddings and events. The upholstered seat cushion, secured discreetly with velcro, ensures comfort without sacrificing appearance. Whether used for ceremonies, banquets or press dinners, they instantly elevate the overall aesthetic.
What sets them apart, beyond looks, is their versatility. These chairs are robust, with a sturdy build and a design that supports repeated use in busy venues such as hotels, restaurants, and wedding barns. Despite their luxurious appearance, they are lightweight and stackable, making them a practical choice for large-scale events. Hundreds can be transported, set up and packed away with ease.
Event planners appreciate their ability to suit a wide range of styles. They look effortlessly at home alongside our rustic trestle tables or in more classical surroundings. Their natural finish works well with warm, neutral palettes and soft floral schemes, but can also support bolder styling choices when paired with vibrant sashes or table décor.
The dimensions ensure comfort and convenience. With a height of 96 cm and a seat height of 49 cm, they offer generous seating without occupying unnecessary floor space. At 7.8 kg, they are substantial enough to feel sturdy, but light enough to move easily during a quick venue turnaround.
It’s no surprise these chairs are making frequent appearances in event galleries and wedding features. Their ability to create an atmosphere that feels intimate and refined has secured them as a firm favourite with couples and stylists alike.
Whether you’re furnishing a country house wedding, a modern warehouse reception, or an elegant marquee dinner, our Cane Backed Louis Chairs offer a seating solution that combines beauty, durability, and practicality in equal measure.
