Elopements & Micro-weddings

Celebrate love in rustic elegance and countryside charm

For couples seeking something more intimate. Exchange vows in a private garden ceremony, followed by a quiet meal and photos around the farm.

Lavandula is made for meaningful moments. Couples looking for a quiet, romantic setting can exchange vows in the garden, share a meal with a few close guests, and take their time exploring the farm for portraits. From fresh flowers to a thoughtfully set table, we’ll help you create something simple, beautiful, and just your own.
