Rainy Day Love


Sitting by my window, watching the rain drizzle outside and the clouds rolling overhead. It is a cold day and an awfully wet and windy morning. No doubt, somewhere, there is a nervous girl, who is getting ready for her wedding on this very day. She will have hoped for a ray of sunshine to add warmth to her winter wedding.

If you are planning a wedding during the autumn and winter months, here are some things I have seen over the past few years; which bring a little richness and warmth to a cold day.
  • Velvet textures
  • Dark rich colours, mahogany, black, emerald, ruby and sapphire blue
  • Live Music
  • Candles
  • Bright Flowers
  • Shades of white

Enjoy planning your winter marriage and know that raindrops on the lawn reflect the sunlight beautifully. Imagine each droplet is a diamond filled with hope and wonder on your special day.

Winter Wedding

As the rain drizzled and the storm clouds rolled in, we held a beautiful ceremony inside the elegant, yet simple chapel at Munja Gardens in Karnup WA. The bride wore a stunning black satin dress with white floral embroidery, traditional veil and ornate jewells; accompanied by her bridal party, who wore platinum dresses with black shrugs. These contemporary wedding colours designed in classic bridal attire, along with the beaming smiles of the page boys, flower girls, bride and groom, would surely make for spectacular photographs.

As the couple exchanged their wedding vows, it was obvious to see that this man and woman were connected spiritually and emotionally in all aspects of life and love.

This winter wedding was a celebration of the love Martin and Kristy share as husband and wife and also as mother and father to their wonderful children. To represent the unity of family, a sand pouring ceremony was performed during the marriage. Just as the sands which joined together on this day, can never be divided, nor shall the love of this family.
