Congratulations on beginning your wedding journey with us!
The SbN Weddings team has been creating beautiful memories for couples for over 50 years, and our big hat tipis are the perfect choice if you dream of a boho big day. Exchange your vows surrounded by lush woodland and wildflowers, with two shimmering lakes as your backdrop. Then dance the night away under a canopy of twinkling lights inside our enchanting tipis.
We can’t wait to help you create magical memories that will last a lifetime.
Time to say 'I do'
The gorgeous Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty surrounding us provides an idyllic, picture-perfect backdrop for your tipi wedding.
Experience the magic atmosphere as you walk down the aisle in your outdoor ceremony, surrounded by loved ones, and soak in the romantic views of lakes, woodlands, and rolling countryside.

We work with a range of suppliers who can provide your wedding catering, from pizza vans to theatrical BBQ smokers. You’re also welcome to select your own caterer for your big day.
Car parking
There is ample parking for guests in the field just before the tipi site, which is a short walk away from the tipis along a tree-lined lane with festoon lighting.
A dog-friendly site
We do allow well-behaved dogs on our tipi site; it is the responsibility of the couple to ensure that any dogs are thoroughly cleaned up after.
Music policy
In the daytime, non-amplified musicians are allowed, or you can play a playlist through our venue PA system. In the evening (7pm - 11pm) a DJ or a playlist can play through our venue sound system. An 11pm curfew for all amplified music is in place to respect our neighbours.
