Planning a multi-day boho wedding celebration allows couples to fully immerse themselves and their guests in the experience. From weekend events to destination weddings, a multi-day celebration provides opportunities for rehearsal dinners, morning-after brunches, farewell parties, and other memorable gatherings. With careful planning, couples can create a cohesive, relaxed, and magical bohemian atmosphere that flows seamlessly across multiple days.
The first step is determining how many days your celebration will last and which events to include. Consider the main ceremony, reception, pre-wedding activities like rehearsal dinners, post-wedding brunches, and optional casual gatherings. A well-structured plan ensures that each day has a purpose without overwhelming your guests. Prioritize which events are essential and which are flexible, allowing for adjustments based on timing and attendance.
Selecting the right venue for each day is crucial. Rehearsal dinners, the main ceremony, and farewell events may all require different spaces. Consider accessibility, guest capacity, atmosphere, and how well the venue aligns with your boho aesthetic. Outdoor spaces, barns, historic homes, or desert landscapes often complement a bohemian theme. When scouting venues, check for flexibility, amenities, and potential for unique décor to create a consistent look across the celebration.

Getting married is one of the most significant and celebratory events you can experience in adult life. It’s a collection of friends and family from all walks of life, all gathered to help see you through to the next stage of your own life with the one person you love the most in the world. And after that, you get to go on a honeymoon with them! How great is that! But the honeymoon can sometimes pose a bit of a problem when it comes to planning.
There are cost concerns, naturally, and particularly so if you’ve managed to splurge a bit on your dream wedding and reception. But there’s also the matter of planning a holiday experience fit to last a lifetime. Here, I’ll make the case for a city break honeymoon as a modern, flexible alternative to the traditional long-haul getaway. It’s a chance to feel the romance in a distinctly cosmopolitan way, through culture, food, boutique hotels, and memorable experiences — and without the need for long flights or long breaks from work.
First, let’s go over why you’d pick a city break at all. The usual instinct might be to find a coastal getaway, or a rural retreat that provides you the peace and quiet in which to enjoy your next life together as spouses. But such getaways can be expensive, not to mention difficult to organise when life gets hectic at home. Not everyone has the luxury of time and money to make such a long-haul, long-format honeymoon happen.
The romantic honeymoon city break is the ideal alternative to this older-fashioned form of holiday travel. It is an opportunity for the two of you to exercise spontaneity, and to do so in a way that doesn’t require hours and hours of international travel. Urban getaways are concentrated shots of cultural exploration and vibrant new experiences – at least, if you plan them right.

Standing in front of 150 guests at a wedding can feel daunting, which is why many couples opt for a more intimate celebration, usually ranging from 20 to 60 guests. Once couples have found a space that suits their number of guests – a small enough space to get an atmosphere going but not too small that the guests feel claustrophobic – decorating the small space can be the focus. A small space can still be decorated in a way that makes a big impact. It’s the perfect opportunity to make the most of what you have and to realize that what you have, might be small but it surely is mighty.
There are plenty of ways to incorporate big styles into small spaces, this site knows all about it so simply take some of the below creative decoration ideas into account.
You can go big by adding special decorative pieces to the table setting. Wedding tables usually come with a relatively simple setup and the catering team often has the plates and dishes lined up in the kitchen ready for service, so you can’t put out pretty plates but you can have underplates. This is a great opportunity to add a personal and decorative touch to the table setting by adding colour or texture to the underplate. Adding decorative table runners also elongates the shape of the table and makes for a more celebratory feel. Including name tags that are more than the basic black and white ones but perhaps have little feathers or hay on them to add some excitement would be a great idea. Adding these pieces will make the dining area seem larger than life, which is exactly the goal of a small venue.

Tradition still has its place in weddings, but today’s couples are taking a more thoughtful approach to which ones make the cut. From clever exits to receiving lines, some customs are being reimagined, while others are quietly making their exit.
It’s less about doing things the “right way” and more about creating something that feels personal. The beauty of modern weddings is that you can blend the meaningful parts of tradition with ideas that reflect who you are. A mix of old and new often makes for the most memorable celebrations!
Here’s what a handful of industry pros have to say about the traditions worth bringing back and the ones it might be time to leave behind.
There’s something cinematic about a couple making their grand getaway at the end of the night. While sparklers and confetti send-offs have had their moment, the classic exit car is overdue for a comeback.
Liney Castle, Wedding Planner at Twickenham House and Hall, says, “Some wedding traditions that couples should bring back are vintage exit vehicles! This is often a minor detail that couples leave out these days in the midst of the rest of the larger logistical decisions to make, but it is a sweet way to cap off the evening. Going along with this, I love the cans and ribbons that guests tie to the back of the exit vehicle. This is such a fun and nostalgic tradition.”
An exit car adds a sense of occasion that often gets lost in the whirlwind of the day. It’s that quiet, in-between moment where you can take a breath, share a laugh, and soak up the fact that you’ve just tied the knot.
