Special Occasions.
Vow renewals, forest elopements, milestone birthdays, and micro-weddings on a private 58-acre preserve with a dedicated ceremony platform.
A private preserve for the moments that matter.
Raven's Retreat hosts vow renewals, forest elopements, micro-weddings, milestone birthdays, and anniversary getaways. The dedicated 24x24 ft elevated forest ceremony platform is walked to via a short private trail on the preserve. Lodging in the Lodge (up to 16) or Bungalow (two). Every occasion is personally programmed by Raven, not templated.
The ceremony, and the days around it.
For a vow renewal or elopement, the ceremony runs on the elevated forest platform. Raven and Dustin are on site officiants. Raven coordinates plant-based catering (or a chef of your choosing), and any wellness add-ons for the wider party. Photography referrals are available.
For a milestone birthday or anniversary weekend, the format is a small-group retreat in the Lodge with layered wellness and creative sessions. A genuinely different kind of celebration weekend from a rented cabin party.
