Real Stories + Real People

This was one of those beautiful little elopements where everything felt as though it came together perfectly. And proof that despite the weather, your day can still be every beautiful thing it needs to be. Liz and Dean eloped at the gorgeous Bonney Berg Bed and Breakfast in the Adelaide Hills at Cromer, near Birdwood. Their beautiful host Bron made sure everything ran perfectly, witnessing their wedding, providing delicious meals and such a beautifully welcoming environment with access to their stunning property and grounds. She also let us borrow her floral arrangements to create a lovely, loose and rustic bouquet. I still cannot believe that the flower is a cabbage! How very cool.

Lauren & Brent's wedding on Friday was the definition of what an elopement should be. Beautifully small, intimate, full of emotion and in a stunning location close to their hearts. Mylor has beautiful rolling hills, lovely views overlooking Mount Lofty and a rustic conservation park. It even has it’s own Thai Buddhist forest Monastery! (Not many Adelaide suburbs can boast that). Better still though, it was right in the backyard of where Brent had spent his childhood growing up. Pair that with the fact that he is a park ranger, and that they both enjoy regular, adventurous walks through National parks and reserves, and this was without a doubt the perfect spot for their elopement.

What a beautiful day this was! A wedding ceremony so intimate that the only witnesses were myself and the celebrants husband, just the right amount required to legally marry. <3 It was a very special day to be a part of, and in my mind the perfect South Australian Country elopement. Rachel & Leigh kept things simple, but perfectly sweet. With lovely coloured ribbons hanging from a tree making the backdrop for the ceremony. A beautifully bright bouquet, stunning boutique wedding dress and the Australian countryside complimenting the rustic setting of the Battunga Bed & Breakfast.
