The ever-shifting estimates as to when Covid restrictions might subside have made planning weddings, parties and gatherings near impossible. Unless, that is, you throw out the conventions of yesteryear and opt for a personal, pared-down soiree closer to home. Family and friends needn’t miss out on the celebrations, thanks to the wonders of modern technology meaning they can join virtually, and a socially-distanced photographer can ensure all the special moments are captured to last a lifetime and beyond.
We are kicking off the new year with elopement wedding inspiration from the ultimate runaway coastal location, The Beach Hut. Set in a secret north Cornwall surf spot, this salt-beaten shack has weathered the wildest of storms and remains possibly the most romantic destination the UK has on offer.
