Elope in the Forest with the Vow Cabin

May 3, 2021 By Barbara Densmore Leave a Comment

Updated January 2023

Psssttt!  Yes you!  Are you nature folks?  Does sun sparkling through a forest canopy feel more like you than overhead lights in a hotel ballroom?  Want something small that feels natural and real?  Want to really enjoy getting married without the fuss and hassle of planning all the details?  Want to invite your family along but keep them out of the organizing?  (ha ha)

The Vow Cabin has become the favourite package of couples who want a wedding experience that is relaxed, natural, sustainable, personal…and a little adventurous.

This marks Year 4 for this wonderful package and it just keeps getting better every year. Trust me on that.

The team includes the best of the best on Vancouver Island.   Caitlin, our exceptional organizer has come up with a few different packages:

  • You can come by yourselves, or bring up to 8 witnesses.
  • Or you can bring up to 20 people and have a wee celebration in the forest.

Because the space is so large and so private, it feels like your own private getaway.  In actual fact, you share the day with up to 2 other couples, but it simply doesn’t feel that way.  And that makes the package waaaayyy more affordable. 

So, if you don’t have time to plan, but you still want to get married in a meaningful friendly way, maybe check out The Vow Cabin.  Some 2023 dates are full…but there are still good open dates on their website.

Modern Metaphysical Minister/Celebrant and Wedding Officiant, Vancouver Island. Including Victoria, Duncan, Nanaimo, Parksville, Courtenay, Comox Valley and Campbell River.

Barbara was hands-down a phenomenal officiant of our wedding!! Don’t be intimidated by the “homework” she gives you because she will turn your answers into the most beautiful, personal, and oh-so-special ceremony. We absolutely loved what she put together for us and we received so many compliments from guests (and our parents!) afterward that it was the BEST wedding ceremony they’ve EVER been to! She is one of the first things we mention when people ask about our wedding and we cannot thank her enough for helping to create such a memorable day!! Barbara deserves all the stars and then some, we could not recommend her enough!

This lovely woman was exactly the low-stress and emotionally fluent genius needed to coordinate, manage, and finally officiate our incredibly special day. I truly cannot recommend higher ! Thank you so much Barbara for all you did to get to know us, our story, and our families. We love you!

Barbara is so much more than an officiant. Her seasoned, thorough and thoughtful approach helped us create a ceremony experience that was equal parts personal and FUN! From our initial consult, to day-of, as well as following-up after our wedding, we can’t thank Barbara enough for her care and attention. She’s simply the best!

I had the pleasure of working with Barbara at a wedding yesterday and she was an absolute delight to work with. We literally met 5 minutes before the ceremony and she ran the elopement so smoothly and beautifully, taking into consideration the stories of the couple and even included in some First Nations Rituals and Jewish traditions for Susan and Inka. As a photographer, hiring an officiant is such an important decision to make as they really create and bring the energy to a ceremony. You won't go wrong picking Barbara! 10/10 I look forward to documenting another wedding with you soon Barbara! Big hugs, Sachin

JUST AMAZING! It's really hard to describe just how amazing Barbara is at what she does. She walked my now wife and I through ever step of the process. The creation of our ceremony, the vows and everything came together perfectly. Barbara is a master at making any special event so personal and unique to who you are. Thank-you so much Barbra!! Love Ant & Meg

Barbara officiated our wedding at the Vow Cabin. The ceremony was everything I always dreamed of. Funny and heartwarming. Barbara is truly brilliant and so so good at what she does. The ceremony was so personal and unique to us. I felt so relaxed during the ceremony and I really appreciate that she reminded us to be present and really take in the moment. I really appreciate the care that Barbara put into writing our ceremony. Truly the best.

Our wedding ceremony with Barbara was excellent. It was intimate and personal, but also light hearted and funny in a way that celebrated our love without taking away from the gravity of the commitment we were making to each-other. Barbara also included our friends and family in all the right moments to create some wonderful lasting memories. It was a really special day and Barbara played a huge role in it, I cannot recommend her enough!

Barbara was a spectacular celebrant for our wedding. She works with you to create a wonderful, authentic ceremony. Barb had tons of unique quirks she suggested, which made our ceremony unique. She also had a sterling reputation with our vendors, so our ceremony was perfectly coordinated with our photographer (Tulle & Tweed Photography) and videographers (Paper Heart Films). Barb's words brought us and our guests to tears! You can feel her presence with every word. I cannot recommend her enough.

Barbara is an amazingly thoughtful, patient and professional officiant. She made what could have been an extremely stressful situation an absolute breeze. She helped us design a ceremony that matched our personalities perfectly and truly made our day special.

Barbara was a delight to work with. From the very beginning she was personable, easy to talk to and supportive. She turned our ideas into a magical wedding ceremony for us that exceeded our expectations. It was a whimsical night for us.
