Authentic & soulful reminders of your story
If the thought of a big wedding with all your extended family, friends and acquaintances fills you with dread then planning a smaller more intimate wedding or elopement in Cornwall could be the perfect answer for you.
With its spectacular vistas and over 400 hundred miles of coastline, it’s hard to think of a reason not to run away to Cornwall for your intimate wedding or elopement. Cornwall is spoilt for AMAZING venues, some of my favourites for an elopement in Cornwall are: BoHo Cornwall in St Just, Hotel Tresanton in St Mawes, The Rosevine Hotel on the Roseland and The Old Quay House in Fowey.
If you’re not sure if an elopement or intimate wedding is right for you both then here’s 4 reasons’ you must consider an intimate wedding in Cornwall…
1 – CORNWALL IS BEAUTIFUL
Cornwall is a place like no other, golden sandy beaches, rugged cliffs, wild moorlands, ancient woodlands – it truly is one of the most beautiful and romantic locations in the world to celebrate your love.
2 – GET AWAY FROM IT ALL
Escaping your daily life and starting the rest of your lives together as newlyweds in a beautiful location. What could be more romantic than waking up together on the morning of your wedding, spending the day just the two of you in a sublime place?
3 – DITCH THE GUEST LIST
If the wedding guest list getting overwhelming and you don’t want to spend the best day of your life with people you haven’t seen in 10 years then why not ditch the guest list and have an intimate wedding in Cornwall. That way you can share your wedding day with only the most important people to you!
4 – DO IT YOUR OWN WAY
Cornwall has many spectacular wedding venues for every taste – from bohemian country houses to ultra modern beach hideaways. You may even consider using wedding celebrants to create a wedding that is unique to you without the family politics and stress of organising a large wedding.
5 – LESS FUSS
Smaller more intimate weddings tend to be simple and centered around the bride and groom and their love for each other. They are perfect if you don’t want to put on a big show for everyone else; you just want to be together and to make a special commitment to each other without the added fuss.
6 – GET MARRIED QUICKLY
If you want to get married quickly then elopements can take less time to organise (depending on your chosen venue’s availability). Planning your elopement for a weekday will greatly improve your chances on booking somewhere with less notice.
7 – YOU DON’T WANT TO GET MARRIED IN YOUR LOCAL CHURCH
f you haven’t grown up going to church and dreaming of getting married there one day then escaping to get married in Cornwall could be the perfect answer for you both.
