Small, intimate wedding venue on Dartmoor

Your special day by the micro wedding specialists

Discover your perfect wedding venue

Ever After, The Dartmoor Home Of Small, Elopement Weddings

If you want a small, intimate wedding venue with laid-back luxury and everything included, we might be just what you’re looking for.

Either alone or with up to 6 guests (10 guests in warmer months) you get an exclusive-use, mid-week, 2 night all included micro wedding, here in Devon.

These days, elopement weddings don’t carry the same meaning as they used to. It’s not all running away on a whim to get married – in fact, our couples like to book in advance! Now, elopement weddings – or micro weddings – are more about keeping things small and intimate, just the two of you and maybe a handful of guests.

We call ourselves elopement wedding experts – we’re elopement specialists. Elopement weddings are the only weddings we do, so you’ll always have exclusive access to the venue. No other weddings will be held on the same day, so you really do have the place to yourselves.

What makes Ever After different to other elopement venues?

We see ourselves as custodians of this special place that is Lower Grenofen. We’re in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and part of our grounds are designated as a SSSi (Site of Special Scientific Interest).

What’s the closing time on the day?

With elopement weddings, there’s no finish time provided we can’t hear any noise from the house after 11pm. Not to be a kill joy but the lovely S has to get up early for work the next day so he needs his beauty sleep. So that’s no music, no laughing or loud voices to be...
