Vow Renewals & Elopements.
Vow renewals and micro-weddings on the 24x24 ft elevated forest platform on the private 58-acre preserve.
A ceremony platform in the middle of an old-growth forest.
Raven's Retreat's 24x24 ft elevated forest ceremony platform is a dedicated ceremony space, screened by old-growth Hocking Hills forest and reachable by a short walk from the Lodge. Perfect for intimate vow renewals, forest elopements, and micro-weddings. Adults only, personally hosted, and paired with lodging in the Lodge or Bungalow.
A private ceremony, then the whole preserve to walk.
Reach out through the consult flow with your desired date, headcount, and lodging preference (Lodge for larger parties, Bungalow for a couple). Raven personally builds the day around your ceremony. Officiant coordination, plant-based catering, and add-on wellness or creative sessions for the wider party are all bookable.
The retreat is adults-only, which is what makes this a genuinely quiet forest ceremony. Book both the Lodge and the Bungalow and the 58 acres are entirely yours, with no other guests and no ambient noise from beyond the preserve.

Ceremony Platform
Elevated 24x24 ft platform, walked to via a short private trail. A real forest setting, not a decked-out backyard.
Lodge Lodging for the Party
The Art Lodge sleeps up to 16 adults across six bedrooms, the natural fit for a small wedding party.
Bungalow Elopement
For a two-person elopement or vow renewal, the Bungalow is the natural lodging: private hot tub, Forest-Pond view balcony.
Wellness Add-Ons
Somatic breathwork, sound bath, or a forest bath the day of the ceremony. A gentle nervous system reset for the party.
Chef & Photography
Plant-based chef coordination and photographer referrals available through the consult flow.
The ultimate, rejuvenating getaway and silent retreat.
