Staycation honeymoon in a romantic yurt

Still wondering what to do on your first night? Or even for your staycation honeymoon? Maybe you're the 'get ahead' type and want it sorted for your green wedding in 2014. Well here's an idea...

Fabulous yurt company sshh..., those of the wonderful wedding yurts in East Sussex, have come up with this lovely concept of a honeymoon yurt. Their honeymoon yurts are carefully thought out with wedding night glamour in mind and provide the perfect get away following a wonderful day celebrating with family and friends.

Each yurt is furnished with a double bed fitted with 5* hotel quality linen, soft pillows, vintage chandelier, solid teak furniture, one off mirror, soft seating and handpicked luxury accessories.

A chilled bottle of bubbly and glasses will be waiting for the happy couple when they return to their yurt to toast their special day.

Honeymoon yurts can be set up indoors or outdoors, in a field, your very own back garden or alternatively the sshh... team can help you find the perfect venue.

A truly unique wedding night experience!

Go to their website for much more information about this lovely idea.

Fabulous festival wedding tents in Wales

Wonderful Welsh tent people Cariad Canvas and Wedding Tipi recently held a joint open weekend in South Wales following the Easter break.

The two businesses, working alongside each other, can create an awe inspiring canvas village ideal for mini festival style weddings and the also do birthday parties and corporate events.

It seems like a brilliant idea to us. By keeping everything on one site with luxury sleeping accommodation for all your guests in bell tents and yurts, and the kata tipi tents being used for your wedding celebrations, means you can really make a weekend of it and your guests can party the weekend away.

The event teams in both companies absolutely love a challenge and creating bespoke events for clients. They tell us that really anything you can think of can be arranged. A number of village extras are available such as sumptuous chill out lounges, bar tipi's, ladies’ parlour rooms, reception tents with concierge service and even security, children's play dens, giant festival flags, fire bowls, special effects, lighting packages and much more.

Like all good event teams, they work closely with a number of wedding and event suppliers, sourcing internal furnishings and extra touches; flowers, vintage china, event planning and photographers. Do take a look at their website and blogs as there’s loads of information there.

For more ideas and information go to Cariad Canvas's website or visit Wedding Tipi's site for ideas.

Contact info@weddingtipi.co.uk or info@cariadcanvas.co.uk for further details about their wedding tent services.

Suppliers who took part in the event were Big Wave Flags, Fancy Vintage China, Made in Mumbles, Sylvie & Joan and Maria Farelly.
