Real Wedding Story. J and N decided to marry and organised a wedding within a few weeks. They opted for an 11 a.m. intimate garden wedding with closest friends and family in rural Timaru.  Read their story here

Morning Wedding Set in Rural Timaru. Close Friends and Family Celebrate Love.

​This lovely couple created a beautiful, intimate ceremonial space in a relatively short amount of time. J and N decided the time was right to marry, thought, "Why wait?" and had everything sorted within a few weeks - I loved their enthusiasm! 
​
J's parents have the most stunning rural lookout on the outskirts of Timaru; they decided that this would be the perfect location for them... and it was. 

The sky had meandering clouds that created the perfect light to allow the talented photographer, Richard Brown of Husky Photography, to capture some fantastic photos. 

This couple had decided on a morning wedding, which worked out wonderfully. Close family and friends gathered around, and Roxy, the dog, was waiting with J. 

At 11:00 a.m., the bagpipes started to play. Even the dog stopped to watch and see what was happening. N looked gorgeous as she walked over the bridge to join her soon-to-be husband, J. ​

J had the biggest grin when he saw his bride. Their ceremony was filled with emotion and laughter. Their vows were beautiful and brought a tear to some of the guest's eye. For the legalities, even​ Roxy, the dog wanted to be a part of the signing. 

After the ceremony, we all came together with a glass of champagne and watched the photos being taken. The sun peeped its head from behind the clouds and shone brightly on everyone. The couple celebrated their new chapter as husband and wife throughout the day and evening. ​

Congratulations. I wish you both a wondrous journey in your marriage. May it be filled with meaningful memories, love, and laughter. ​

Are you getting married? I would love to have a no obligation chat about your big day.  Please  Get in contact

​Love, Jade x
