We know how difficult it is to find accommodation for you and your guests when looking at countryside wedding venues. Between expensive (and often unavailable) taxi journeys and not-so-great budget hotels it can be hard to find something to suit everyone. Wedding Glamping is a great solution to combine the charm of camping with the comfort and style of luxury accommodation. It offers an unforgettable experience for you and your guests along with a show stopping photo opportunity. At North Sky Yurts, we offer a range of tent sizes to cater for couples, families and of course the newly weds. Take a look at what we can offer and read on for our guide to wedding bell tent villages.
In this ultimate guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know to plan the perfect glamping wedding.
What is Wedding Glamping?
Glamping, short for “glamorous camping,” brings together the beauty of camping with the luxury of modern comforts. Picture stunning bell tents, cosy interiors, fairy lights and breathtaking natural surroundings — all tailored to your special day.
Wedding glamping is ideal for couples who:
Want to host their guests on-site without the hassle of taxis
Love nature but don’t want to sacrifice comfort
Are planning a weekend celebration for family and friends
Want to host a unique outdoor wedding
Why Choose Glamping for Your Wedding?
There are countless reasons why glamping is becoming the go-to option for couples looking to create a magical wedding experience:
A Unique Experience: Wedding glamping is far from ordinary. It creates a festival-style vibe that guests will remember for years to come.
Guest Accommodation: Bell tents provide comfortable and stylish overnight accommodation, eliminating the need for expensive hotel bookings and taxis.
Nature’s Beauty: Glamping weddings are often set in stunning locations—think countryside fields, forests, or coastal views.
All-in-One Venue: With glamping, your ceremony, reception, and guest accommodation are all in one place, creating a seamless and stress-free experience.
Insta-Worthy Decor: Glamping tents, fairy lights and a stunning backdrop make for some amazing wedding photos.
How to Plan the Perfect Wedding Glamping Experience
1. Choose the Perfect Venue
The key to a successful glamping wedding starts with the right location. Look for venues that offer spacious outdoor areas with scenic views, easy access for guests and options for overnight camping.
Popular choices include:
Countryside farms or meadows
Woodland retreats
Coastal campsites
Private estates with glamping facilities
Or take a look at our favourite Yorkshire venues for some inspiration.
2. Hire Bell Tents for Accommodation
Bell tents are a staple for any wedding glamping setup. They provide stylish and comfortable spaces for guests to relax and sleep after the festivities. When hiring bell tents:
Consider Capacity: Choose tents that accommodate couples, families or groups. North Sky Yurts offers tents of different sizes - check them out here.
Add Comfort: All our packages include comfy beds, bedding, rugs and lighting to make the experience luxurious.
Consider Different Areas: We offer tents not only for sleeping but for 'chill-out' areas so that guests can relax in different spaces during the weekend.
3. Create Cosy Social Spaces
Transform your glamping village by adding a glamp fire. When booking 10 tents or more you get a free social space including benches and lighting. Adding a firepit turns this area into a magical space where guests can chat, toast marshmallows and get cosy under the stars.
Tips for a Smooth Wedding Glamping Experience
Provide Clear Directions: Make sure guests know how to get to the site and where to park.
Weather-Proof Your Event: Have backup plans, such as marquees or sheltered areas, in case of rain.
Offer Facilities: Arrange for portable toilets, showers and a designated area for getting ready.
Communicate with Guests: To save you time, we provide a handy guide to share with your guests which gives them all the info they need on what to bring and how to prepare for glamping.
Hire Professionals: Working with North Sky Yurts means you'll be in good hands. We provide setup, takedown, decor and any additional support you need. We want to make your experience with us as stress-free as possible so you can sit back and relax knowing we've got it all in hand.

"Amazing company, cannot recommend more highly. Excellent customer service from start to finish and a beautiful set up for our wedding day. Thank you!"
Chloe, Wedding at Scrivelsby Walled Garden
"We were introduced to North Sky Yurts by the team at Little Seed Field - and we ended up hiring a glamping tent field for some guests at our wedding to stay over, as well as one of their emperor chill out tents for the reception. It was a great, easy set up, our guests were really impressed with the amount of effort and dressing went in to the tents - it looked wonderful. North Sky were also really easy to deal with, and it made for a very special wedding weekend."
Jenny, Wedding at Little Seed Field
"Thank you so much to the North Sky Yurts team for making our wedding so amazing! Everyone loved the bell tents, and we really appreciated the small touches in the honeymoon tent, like the Prosecco and crisps!"
