Pippa & Caspar

Wedding Weekend
8th – 12th May 2026 · Rock, Cornwall

A Few Days by the Sea

Here's what we have planned for the weekend and beyond. Everything beyond Saturday is entirely optional — stay as long as you like.

Fri 8
Meet & Greet
Friday 8th May
Four Boys Restaurant, Rock
Evening
Drinks & Dinner at Four Boys
Four Boys, Rock

We've booked out the entire restaurant for a relaxed evening together before the big day. There'll be a light dinner and plenty to drink — food is covered by us, drinks are pay-as-you-go. We have some incredible wines, cocktails, local beers, and of course lots of delicious soft drinks. Come hungry, come thirsty!

Dress code: Smart casual — spring vibes.

Four Boys is a highly recommended spot for those around for a few days either side of the wedding.

Men's Morning — Sauna & Sea Swim

Pippa & Caspar's Wedding, 9th May
1:00pm
The Ceremony
St Michael's Church, Porthilly

Please arrive in good time — the ceremony will begin promptly at 1pm. There is a port-a-loo at the church for guests to use.

Dress code: Black tie.

A videographer and photographer will be there all day capturing the celebration.
Afternoon & Evening
The Reception
Porthilly Farm

A short walk from the church to the reception. All the bubbles served will be English sparkling wine from Camel Valley, a beautiful local Cornish vineyard.

Sun 10
The Day After
Sunday 10th May
Saunas by the Sea
9:00am – 10:00am
Recovery Sauna & Sea Swim
Saunas by the Sea, Baby Bay Polzeath

All welcome. We've pre-booked the whole sauna exclusively for our group. Shake off last night with a wood-fired sauna and a cold dip in the Atlantic before the barbecue.

The science: heat stress from the sauna triggers endorphins and increases blood flow, while cold water immersion reduces inflammation and spikes noradrenaline — together they flush out the fog and reset you faster than anything else.

Daytime
The Barbecue

Generously hosted by Avril and Roger Gardner. The catering is by Fee's Food — who is also the caterer from the wedding, and the mother of the four boys who own the restaurant we're all heading to on Friday night.

The incredible meats have been kindly gifted by Will Buxton and are from Huntsham. For those interested, you can watch a short film about them below.
