our colour palette is below

with our vibe being stylish, elegant, modern romance with

soft florals and candlelight.

everything on the day is in close proximity and therefore heels would be suitable if you are wondering.

on the day...

Get ready for a magical celebration! Weather permitting, we'll be saying our "I do's" in a beautiful outdoor courtyard just steps away from the main Lodge. Our reception will be a fantastic indoor affair with easy outdoor access, and everything will be conveniently located within close proximity, making it a breeze for the ladies wearing heels to enjoy the day!

photos

We're absolutely thrilled for you to capture all the fun on the day!

Just a heads up, we'll be having an unplugged ceremony, once everyone takes a pre ceremony selfie. Immediately following our vows, we'll dive straight into the celebrations without pausing for formal photos. Our amazing photographer will be there to capture all the moments with our loved ones in real time as we pop the bubbly!

Wet Feet

Kiddies

We absolutely love kids, but this event is all about the grown-ups. Don't worry though, if you're joining us for the "day after," little ones are more than welcome to join in on the fun!
