With the current trend for bohemian weddings (such as that of celebrity Poppy Delevingne) Tipi Weddings are becoming increasingly popular. Here are our 5 top reasons to have a Tipi Wedding.
1) Having a tipi wedding offers the perfect alternative to a traditional wedding in a church or registry office.
2) Immerse yourself in the beautiful nature that surrounds you.
3) Experience a chilled and laid-back bohemian vibe without all of the formalities of a traditional wedding.
4) A tipi wedding can allow you to have the most peaceful, scenic, secluded and intimate day, away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.
5) You can be creative in your wedding planning, involving your own quirky spin on a trend that is hugely fashionable and on the rise.
Big Sky Tipis is a cool spiritual place where brides can play host to a mini festival type event with music, welly boots, haystacks for seating, hog roasts and homemade ales from local suppliers.
Marquees can be themed, filled with flowers and music and provide the perfect backdrop for photographs along with the local wildlife, majestic oak trees and a quaint farmhouse.
These authentic Indian tipis are hand painted with traditional Sioux designs and inside they have hand painted liners and an Ozan; a canvas ceiling for extra cosiness over the bed. Bean bags and faux fur rugs on the floor provide a comfortable and snug living space for a night under the stars.
