Frances and Chris - A Rustic Wedding

Frances and Chris - A Rustic Wedding

After chatting in a burger café, Chris asked Frances out on a date. A year later, as they were strolling along the waterfront after dinner, he got down on one knee and proposed. 

The couple wanted their wedding to suit the venue, which was a beautiful rustic property with rolling countryside views. Frances added a few DIY touches to the day, creating the cover for their guest book, where they invited their guests to take a polaroid photo and tape it into the book with their message. She worked with the venue to add rustic decorative touches, creating a beautiful reception space.

Frances chose her beautiful wedding dress after walking past a bohemian and romantic styled bridal boutique, and within ten minutes, she knew she had found the one. Their wedding day completely reflected them as a couple, warm and joyful.
