Celebratory weddings are perfect if you want a wedding-style event in your favourite location. This can include non-licensed venues, meaning the world – or rather Cornwall, is your oyster.
You can choose where to recite your personal vows, by the sea or under a Cornish starry sky: whatever you want and whatever your heart desires.
What is important to us is that your day is exactly the way you want it to be. Talk to us about your wishes and we will do our best to make them come true.
Although a celebratory wedding has no legal status you can add a legal marriage or civil partnership option – please see our Celebratory Ceremony Bundle for more information.
