The gorgeous thing about a rainy day is that the photos always turn out AMAZING!

Stephanies bouquet was designed using devine spring hyacinths coupled with dusky pink Something Special roses and silvery grey succulents to add texture. 
....the newly weds....
Stoneridge Estate and the fantastic architecture provides the perfect backdrop for unbelievable images.
The venue lends itself to so many different photo opportunities, from the super- sweet honeymoon cottage and quaint chapel to the extensive gardens with stone ruins, the vineyard and ponds and of course the rustic, medieval inspired lodge. Not to mention the picturesque Lake Hayes and looming mountains nestled perfectly in the background.
Stephanies table centrepieces were based on the same colour tonings as her bouquet, but informally arranged in ceramic bowls with garden foliages and frosted tealights surrounding added the perfect amount of accent lighting.
... and then there was snow.....
