B & Js Wedding - 21 / 1 / 2017

8 February 2017

It seems almost impossible that its been 2 weeks since our youngest was married.

She and Jarrad make the most beautiful couple. Together since school days....through all those teenage years,... not to mention the 4 years of geographic separation due to University.
Anyone that knows them would vouch what a special couple they are...they have an unspoken respect and love for each other.. they work hard... are goal driven and are incredibly generous with their time and money toward family and friends.

Its not an easy job planning and hosting a wedding... there are a million gazillion little things to be considered and arranged...and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. I waited during the entire process for the stress to take over... but it didn't. I have never seen her so relaxed and happy in my life.

They were surrounded by the most beautiful and supportive attendants (Alex, Hannah, Kate and Chelsea..along with Jordan, Ben, Nathan and Zac) ... their bridal party was made up of family and dear friends.... the photographer Shaun is one of our dearest mates... Meg did an amazing job of MC ..and Kurt and Paige took some video footage.


 It was such a relaxed morning at home....having the hair and makeup done here at home meant we could pour some bubbles and sit back and relax.

 Jarrad and the Groomsmen looking so handsome... I am sure by now they were keen to get the party started.


 The wedding ceremony was held in Jarrads Aunt and Uncles garden... we can not thank them enough for the work they put in to make sure it was just beautiful on the day. It was a rather warm afternoon so we were thankful of some tree coverage along the edge for shade.

    1. Thankyou...It was perfect.... the weather was warm.. around 38deg ... but we had plenty of refreshments and the reception had lovely cooling. The dress was stunning on her..and suited her personality and style beautifully.

    1. Thankyou Sian.... I am so mindful that our wedding in the heat would be such a contrast to your weather at the present... it was a perfect day in every way. We scrubbed up OK too... a bit different to the day we met in Belfast ..all windswept and puffed from our whirlwind day on the Antrim coast.
