PAUSE 🖤

Hello lovely wedding lovers. I’m just popping in to let you know that we are hitting the pause button for a few months. We won’t be open to new bookings and we’re having a lovely time relaxing with our little fam and adventuring as always.

If you’re looking for some vendor guidance, check through our previous posts for tags from previous events and styled shoots for the best of the best.

I have some beautiful content to share with you from our most recent weddings and shoots upon our return.

Big love.

C + D 🖤

When I was in grade 7 I sat down with my best friend and wrote a list. “The perfect man”. He would be tall, kind, smart and sporty. A “hot nerd” was the goal.

As I grew older, that list became extensive. So much so that I had stopped searching for “the one”. I didn’t think it humanly possible that someone could meet my ridiculous expectations.

Then along you came. I could write a novel about the qualities that you possess as a friend, a husband and a father and I’m so proud that you’re my person 🖤

Happy V Day lovers.

A+Ms ceremony 🍃

For A, she wanted a wooden arbour, whimsical garden vibes and white americana chairs.

Perfection.

Palm trees have always been our thing. They’re everywhere we’ve ever lived, loved and adventured together 🌴

I love that our photographer took the time to photograph us under this tree, even though it was totally different to the rest of our aesthetic.

Find yourself a tog that is in it for you and remember to have fun with your wedding photos ✨

I love this table so much, it’s the perfect elopement scape.

Eloping is such a powerful, wonderful experience. You get to celebrate your love without the stress of a large wedding.

You can breathe, absorb every moment and share your love for each other. It’s slow, relaxed and by far, one of the best days of your life.

Not to mention, they’re SO MUCH fun to plan and style 🖤

Gorgeous A taking a moment before her favourite moments 😊

This rockstar was so cool calm and collected through a rainy morning. We had an outdoor ceremony and reception planned and it was very touch and go.

She was so zen, she even did her own makeup! How incredible is she.
