A unique wedding experience

Two alpacas for your special day

Looking for something a little different for your wedding? Emily's Mini Farm can bring two friendly alpacas to your venue, creating a memorable experience for you and your guests.

They work especially well at countryside, barn and outdoor weddings, but we are happy to discuss any suitable venue where there is safe access and an appropriate outdoor area.

Photographs and memories

A talking point your guests will remember

Alpacas are naturally photogenic and bring a relaxed, playful character to wedding photographs. They can join the bride and groom for portraits, meet family and friends, or simply provide something different for guests to enjoy during a quieter part of the day.

We stay with the alpacas at all times, manage interaction and make sure their welfare remains the priority while you enjoy the experience.

Animal welfare comes first. Wedding attendance is subject to suitable venue access, a safe area, weather conditions and the wellbeing of the alpacas on the day.
