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 is so amazing to work with. She curates the most perfect re-telling of couple's love stories that have them laughing and crying - sometimes at the same time! Barbara has a presence that puts everyone at ease and immediately allows guests and couples to feel grounded to appreciate every moment. If you want a ceremony that tells your story and allows you to truly soak up every word - there is only one person :)

Barbara is amazing to work with! At first I didn't think much of the ceremony part, but having someone like Barbara put together a unique and personalized ceremony really makes the day even more special. So many of our guests said their favourite part of the wedding was the ceremony! So worth it.

There aren’t enough words to say how appreciative my husband (still so exciting to say!!) and I are for Barbara. Right from the moment we started working with her she was thorough, relaxed and made us feel so comfortable. She guides her couples, provides them with helpful tips and tools and made us feel incredibly supported. On the day of, she delivered a ceremony that felt like us. We are forever thankful for her and would recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant - especially for those who are less traditional and choose an adventurous elopement like we did! Thank you, thank you and thank you again Barbara!

Having Barbara as our Wedding Officiant was absolutely incredible. She made us feel so comfortable with the process leading up to our special day, which made it easy and very straightforward. This reduced much stress couples experience preparing for their wedding. On our Wedding Day, the experience was magnificent. Barbara truly made our wedding day an amazing experience. Highly recommended - she'll make your wedding day incredible too.

Barbara was AMAZING to work with. We couldn't be happier with the final outcome of our ceremony. Our guests were all very impressed. We kept hearing guests say how unique and special the ceremony was. And how it was a refreshing update from what they had seen at past weddings. Which was exactly what we had asked for when we first met Barbara! Barbara spent a good amount of time getting to know us and that allowed for a really personalized ceremony. She was organized and always one step ahead of us (which was super helpful with life being so busy). She was an excellent collaborator. She listened to what we wanted, and then gave us a few different options for each section. Shen helped with our vows and made sure we had everything we needed every step of the way. It was the perfect ceremony and we can't imagine having done it with any other officiant! -Cherylann & Luke

Barbara was the celebrant at our wedding and she was absolutely wonderful! She worked closely with us ahead of time to create a ceremony that was specific and relevant to us - one that reflected who we are individually, as a couple, and in our lives together. The result was a ceremony that felt natural, comfortable, welcoming to our guests and family, and full of love and laughs. Her skilled ability to combine logistics know-how with holding the energy of the space had us relaxed and well taken care of. We were in the best hands with her. We laughed, we cried, laughed some more, and left with hearts full! Thank you Barbara!! Michael & Jeramiah

Barbara is a celebrant extraordinaire! Everything was perfect from start to finish, she truly brought our wedding ceremony alive and tailored made the most beautiful day for us. Throughout all the preparation and on the day she was encouraging, kind and supportive. Before the wedding we used Barbara's wonderful website and 'welcome package' to helps us layout our ceremony, choose our 'moments', and gleam inspiration for writing our own vows. It was truly a wonderful day and we're so happy to have had Barbara officiate over us.

Barbara Married us and was so wonderful and helpful in what seemed a daunting process. Let me tell you she did all the hard work, had wonderful suggestions and I just cannot say enough about her service. She wrote us a sweet, funny and very memorable ceremony. My husband and I highly recommend her!! Thank you so much Barbara!

Barbara was a dream to work with- I cannot say it enough! Prior to our wedding, she had me and my husband fill out a little questionnaire about each other and worked our secret responses into our ceremony. This was such a personal touch that brought many laughs and touching moments. We wanted sweet and simple and Barbara did that AND MORE. With little surprises along the way, I couldn't have asked for a better ceremony. Even our guests mentioned how wonderful and entertaining she was. A million thank-yous to Barbara!
