Tipi Wedding Shoot in Nottingham, Sherwood Glade

If you're dreaming of an effortlessly stylish outdoor wedding, a tipi wedding might be the perfect choice. Back in August I designed this stunning photoshoot to inspire couples who love the idea of a boho-chic outdoor wedding, blending natural beauty with elegant details. As a wedding planner specialising in tipi, marquee, and dry hire weddings, I know how important it is to create a setting that feels both personal and picture-perfect.

Sherwood Glade is an exclusive tipi wedding venue in Nottinghamshire. It is also a dry hire venue, allowing couples to create a totally personalised day by selecting their own unique supplier team. The venue has a secluded spot which is perfect for an outdoor wedding ceremony. We lined the aisle with aisle meadow floral arrangements, with rustic vases either side of the ceremony arch. Nestled in the woodlands, this is a stunning focal point for your “I Do’s”.

Inside the tipis, we curated a tablescape that blended refined elegance with rustic charm. Soft and ambient lighting from the tipi fairy lights created a magical glow. Textured cheesecloth table runners, and coloured candles enhanced the warm and inviting tone. Gold-rimmed vintage glassware paired with seagrass charger plates added a modern touch while keeping the overall aesthetic natural.

The florals inside the tipi pulled everything together, incorporating a mix of wild greenery and soft-toned blooms.
