Riven with a shoreline that hugs the whole county, Cornwall has always been a romantic destination. From the highs of Roughtor and Carn Brea to the coastal ports of Mevagissey and Boscastle, there is something timeless and magical about Cornwall; wherever you go. No wonder so many people are opting for elopement in Cornwall.

As famous for toiling tin as tantalising tourists, Cornwall has recently been the centre stage of many homes across the country, due to its role in the BBC’s Poldark. The silhouette of our mines creates beautiful scenery, lining the beaches and moors. With so many amazing restaurants to choose from, Cornwall offers top quality food for all the family.

At any time of year, Cornwall creates such a stunning backdrop for a wedding that anyone might feel seduced by its natural beauty. Even the seagulls carry a romantic charm, as their chorus reminds us that we are next to, if not almost right in the middle of, the Atlantic Ocean.

Elopement to Cornwall year round

Rolling hills mirror thunder, when dramatic winter weather makes Cornwall a brooding set change for the winter wedding. During the autumn, Cornwall retains some of the heat stored over the summer, with warm seas and mild evenings, and a host of wildlife buzzing. Summer skies mimic the blues favoured by Hockney, as we find a little haven from the hive of activity down here in the valley. Spring in Cornwall is when the whole county reawakens after its winter slumber. As the wild garlic catches the breeze, and maybugs fly through the air, Cornwall celebrates its beauty.

From the crags and boulders of the quarries at Bolventor to the artful arc of St. Ives Bay, and the exquisite hidden gardens of Enys, Heligan, and Eden make up Cornwall’s unique landscape; making Cornwall runaway weddings have a divine setting.

Friendly, personable, and inquisitive the people in Cornwall make it a place full of smiles and well wishes, meaning that others will share in your delight of the county, and its choice as a destination for your elopement wedding.
