Two tiny explorers, one very important stile & a whole lot of space to celebrate in ✨

Young family elopements are 100% THE most wholesome wedding days :)

H & E ✨

A Llyn Gwynant legal elopement with family - gathering their nearest & dearest, including their three children, for a few hours of celebrating and sharing some food together in a beautiful spot right in the heart of Eryri.

A beautifully relaxed little ceremony, time with the people who matter most and then a wander around the lake, just the two of them, to take it all in amongst those incredible mountain views.

Eloping absolutely doesn’t have to mean just the two of you. You can celebrate with your favourite people and still carve out some time to yourselves afterwards to bask in that newly-married feeling for a little while :)

Congrats you two - it was super beautiful ✨

One of the things I really love about having a hand in putting these days together is that every single one ends up looking completely different.

And S&H’s is a pretty good reminder that it doesn’t necessarily take a year (or two!) to plan a really beautiful wedding day. These two 100% knew what mattered to them, kept it small, embraced their own personalities and somehow we pulled the whole thing together in just TWO MONTHS :)

Their legal ceremony was at Penarth Fawr with only their closest family & friends, followed by Bollinger and the most delicious carrot cake baked by S’s mum. And then off we went to the coast, where playing games on the beach ended up being one of the absolute highlights of the day. And by complete chance, the RNLI were holding a fundraiser there - so obviously wedding-day burgers on the beach had to happen :) Drinks, games, burgers, ridiculous views and then a walk back together as the sun went down - what a way to spend your wedding day!

Nothing felt like it had been added just because it was a wedding, it was just very THEM and I think that’s why I loved it so much.

Such a wholesome little day and proof that if you keep an open mind, do things your own way and embrace the unexpected bits that sound like fun along the way, getting married really doesn’t have to become a massive year-long production :)

Congrats again Harry & Sadie - absolutely loved putting this one together with you!

What if getting married really could be this simple?

Let’s start with the two of you. Who do you actually want there? Where in Wales would you love to spend the day? How would you like to get married? And what would you genuinely enjoy doing afterwards?

That’s basically where we start :)

One of my favourite things about elopements is that two days can look completely different. A quiet legal ceremony and lunch with your family. Private vows beside a lake followed by a mountain walk. Dogs, cake and the coast. A celebrant somewhere wild followed by dinner at a really good pub.

There isn’t a template you need to follow.

Tell me what sounds like a really good day to you and we can build from there :)
