Bride & Groom
Say I do with a set of beautiful wedding bands commissioned from C Jane Jewellery; all her pieces are made from silver and have bronze or copper running through them to add definition to the textures that are inspired by the coastal environment.
Wedding Favours
Surprise your wedding guest with wedding favours that are a little bit different, let your guests take a little piece of Cornwall with them.
We love this Cornish Seaweed Bath Teabag by Sapooni. The combination of organic seaweeds, sea salts and mineral-rich Epsom sales will ensure your guests find a bit of calm during busy days.
If you prefer something a little sweeter, pop a handbag-sized Cornish Liquor on their table – a delightful blend of Cornish Cream, unique flavouring and wine; pair perfectly with a Cream Tea for that extra special treat.
If you want to give them something they’ll love and cherish from your wedding day, choose a mini succulent from Surreal Succulents, based in Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens the team of knowledgeable horticulturists will be able to advise you of the best choice for you.
Brides to be
For the bride-to-be, the run-up to your wedding can be a busy time. Treat yourself to a new skincare regime from B Skincare to get your skin in tip-top condition for the big day. B Skincare uses the best natural ingredients to make products that are affordable and high quality while being kind to the environment.
Feeding your guests
From all-out Cornish-themed wedding breakfasts to subtle salty sea air hints our members have all the Cornish produce you need for a Cornwall-style wedding. Think pasties by post and cream tea hampers direct to your wedding venue, don’t forget the Cornish Cheese Board from the award-winning Cornish Cheese Company.
Watering your guests
When it comes to drinks Cornwall is a hive for micro-breweries and small-batch distillers, each with its own unique influences and taste properties.
Millennials are swapping age-old wedding traditions for modern-day trends, and cocktails are the new champagne. Surprise your guests with a gold rum distilled by Copperfish, perfect for the base of a crowd-pleasing mojito, or serve up a Martinez using Saint Ives Liquor Company Blood orange gin to pack a punch and get your guests on the dancefloor.
If you’re having a barn wedding perhaps choose a traditional Cornish cider from Haywood Farm Cider in mid-Cornwall. The family has been brewing commercially since 2013 but still uses the granite cider press that have been on the farm for centuries.
