Wedding in wood request

[Two Acres]

Do you already have PL insurance for the site?

 

No I don't Felix, thats whats making me think twice.

Take the money and run!

 

It's in the woods, who'd ever know!

 

Unless it's BBC's 'Don't Tell The Bride'...

 

In which case as many as 12 people may see you on telly, so be careful

 

They haven't mentioned money...

What sort of world do we live in, when a group of people wish to gather in a Wood for a couple of hours and all we can see is risk, hazzards, blame, liability etc. etc.

 

What happened to live and let live !

 

I agree with you arboriculturist. My first instinct would be to say 'yes of course, go ahead, help yourself, no problem'. In todays world, however, I'm not sure if thats wise Interestingly they want to gather under the old oak thats in my avatar picture, seems a nice idea.

Don't actually agree with you on this one. Despite being a woodland owner I don't think it too unreasonable to expect me to walk of the woodlands before an event to make sure there are no imminent risks to the guests and be prepared to cancel an event if the weather conditions worsen.

Up here a civil wedding need to be at an approved/licenced venue but a religious one can be anywhere the minister (or otherwise) agrees to!

 

A halfway house would be a humanist wedding but they aren't cheap

I've looked in to this a bit and its relatively easy to get a licence to have 'official' wedding in a wood in a wood but it means you HAVE to make it available to anyone as a venue. Insurance wise the small woods association provide block insurance for members, well worth joining. Personally, if they just want to jump the broom or point twigs at one another, I'd just let em get on with it!

Have to admit this is exactly what I was thinking! A sad reflection on modern society.
