Legals only or a secret elopement, a DIY grazing box in my eyes is an absolute winner
You don’t need a huge reception to make it feel special. Sometimes it’s just you, your favourite person, two witnesses, and a box like this full of smoked cheddar, brie, blackberries and raspberries everywhere, cashews, olives, a passionfruit cut in half because it looks too good not to, crackers stacked and ready, and a jar of something delicious tucked in the middle.
Hot tip: Kmart and I’m sure other places sell these boxes empty, you just fill them with all your favourite yummy things. Throw in a blanket and you’ve basically got a picnic date built into your wedding day.
It’s the kind of detail that makes a five-minute legal ceremony feel like an occasion.
Pop the bubbles, pull the box apart together, and suddenly it’s a celebration smaller, quieter, completely yours.
A smaller style wedding doesn’t mean no fuss. It just means less fuss, more of what actually matters.
Have I told you lately I love being a celebrant?
