Beacon Crag, Porthleven 

Things to do in Porthleven

Porthleven is home to a famous surf break, a great place to watch huge waves during a storm and has lots of cute independently run restaurants and pubs in the harbour. We eat a stone- baked oven pizza from the Corner Deli at least once a week and love their big selection of Cornish products, our favourite of all is the Cornish gins! Yum yum. This area has some beautiful coastal walks along to Rinsey which is scattered in mine workings, secluded beaches and rock pools which make for great days on the beach, wild swimming or for cliff top picnics overlooking the ocean.

What’s on in Praa Sands

You are only a short 5 minute walk from Praa Sands beach which we swim at almost everyday! There is a caravan park close by which is perfect if you are having more guests. Onsite facilities at the park include a heated swimming pool, sauna and Jacuzzi, a play park and hot tubs in the little mobile homes. Praa sands also have beach bars such as The Sand Bar which can host small events for food after the ceremony.

 small intimate wedding venues in Cornwall

Lots of small wedding venues are adapting and promoting themselves as ‘Elopement Venues’ at the moment, but they may have originally catered for much larger weddings. Having a small wedding is a very intimate occasion and it’s important to have the correct setting and the right people hosting the day to create the best atmosphere for couples.

Here are a few things to think about.

Has the ceremony room adapted the space to make it more intimate for you?

Some rooms that have been licensed to host larger weddings are not suitable for a small ‘run away wedding’ and the couple can look totally lost in a huge room that would usually fit 100+.

What is the background to where you will be saying your vows?

If you want nice pictures from your ceremony, check to see where you will be standing on the day and what is behind you. Creating a memorable space for such an intimate day that can often be filled with lots of emotions is crucial for elopements and intimate weddings. We create such special Background with our magical outdoor Cornwall Elopements Ceremonies like the next Image.

What are the hosts like?

Having the right people as just as important, if not more important than the space. You will be spending time and sharing such an intimate day with strangers. Having people around you to help relax you and guide you are extremely important. Creating an environment is more than just the setting but the people you have with you in that setting.

Elopements are intimate and filled with emotions

Over the years, witnessing hundreds of weddings, we know that small intimate weddings and elopements are often highly charged with a mixture of excitement and emotions. Not to say this is not the case with larger weddings. When there is no pressure with people watching or being distracted by 100s of guests, the couple often feel much less stressed and are often more comfortable to open up and be vulnerable. They show their emotions easier in an intimate setting than what we see at larger weddings. Personally, why we are so passionate about small weddings and elopements, is the energy they bring and how wonderful they make us all feel.

Explore West Penwith 

 There is many hours of fun to be had exploring this stretch of coastline which is home to some of the most spectacular and popular beaches such as Porthcurno and tourist attractions such as Land’s End about 10 minutes away. This area has little light pollution and is one of our favourite areas in Cornwall for watching the milky way and drinking hot choc under the stars. It also has hundreds of hidden coves and secret beaches and tidal pools for wild swimming which we love exploring.

How do you plan your day on a small budget?

Hire an Elopement Photographer that offers a small elopement package

It is possible to cut costs on your elopement by hiring a photographer that offers smaller wedding packages. The most popular package we do is the 4-hours of coverage. This amount of time covers everything from just before the ceremony, to the ceremony and then usually a couple of hours exploring the coastline together, getting a range of locations like Cornish mines, rocky coves, windswept cliffs and secret beaches. To read about our elopement packages UK please click here.

Keep it Local

Using local suppliers is highly recommended. Locals will have insider knowledge and the experience. Someone from outside might only be travelling down to enhance their portfolio rather than cater for your needs.

Go for a low-key dress

Lots of our brides wear 2nd hand wedding dresses or wedding dresses from Etsy or Asos thereby saving hundreds if not thousands of pounds. I think this is why our couples are also more happy to end in the sea on their elopement wedding as they don’t have to worry about getting their dress dirty.

Go Seasonal

You can also save costs by going for a bouquet that is seasonal and locally sourced. Some couples opt for a small dried bouquet and some omit the flowers all together. It really depends on what is important for you. If you want to read more about seasonal wedding flowers please read our blog post ‘ Seasonal Flowers’.

Hampers! Delicious Intimate Food ideas

Lots of our couples love this option from White Radish Catering. They have a huge selection of intimate food idea options to choose from ranging from wedding day hampers to coming into your wedding accommodation to cook for you. If you want to read more please read their blog post ‘Top 5 Wedding Food Trends’ or check out their supplier page.

The smallest and most charming licensed venue you will find on this wild organic farm is available for your ‘wedding for 2 plus a few’. You can share your heartfelt vows with each other on the old stone steps surrounded by your loved ones. How special is that? This slightly larger licensed venue with its corrugated tin roof and rough walls embraced by overgrown foliage and bright blossoms is charming – a real fairytale venue for anyone who believes in the magic of nature.
