andy & em's wedding

Recently I attended the wedding of my friends - Andy and Emile. They are both extremely talented and gifted in the areas of art, design and music. Their wedding was an inspiring, feast of creativity from start to finish. They hand crafted the smallest details that made their wedding intimate and special. From the paper pompoms and fabric hearts hanging in the trees to the music and the food, their wedding said LOVE. We love each other but we love you too and we want you to celebrate with us and share in all the love!!

Here are some snapshots of the day.... mainly of the little creative details and styling that capture the essence of the couple......

Sigh! Such a gorgeous weekend.

wedding

Last Saturday Holly, Beth, Mikey and I headed down to Cambridge for a family wedding. My niece Rochelle and her partner Tony were getting married. Yay! I was looking forward to a weekend away and catching up with John's family. The wedding was held at Sarnia Park. A stylish, elegant property in the heart of the country.


It was a perfect day - warm with clear, blue skies. The ceremony was outside in one of the gardens. It was a stunning setting for a beautiful, somewhat emotional service. I loved Tony and Rochelle's letters to each other. Neither knew what the other had written and there were tears shed all round as the celebrant read them. After the ceremony we chilled out, soaking up the atmosphere and generally enjoying the day....

Highlights of the day.....

champagne and ice cream for afternoon tea
