Kat and George’s Romantic Elopement

11/01/2012

Kat and George live on the West Coast, and after deciding that actually, a big wedding wasn’t really what either of them really wanted – they then decided to go to Christchurch and elope instead.  A phone call to their friends Di and Kevin and the venue was arranged – they would get married on their friends’ deck, under a willow tree  with just a handful of close friends.

Kat and her friend Charlotte got ready at Huntly Lodge.

When Kat arrived at Di  - who was “Best-Girl”- and Kevin’s – who was “Bridesman” – place,  George watched as his bride glided past the full length windows and made her way out to the leafy veranda.  There was an audible gasp as he saw her, and now I know where the  saying comes from “She took his breath away”.

I love the look the love……

….and Kat looked pretty in love too. Sigh……

The ceremony was taken by celebrant David Adams  and Di – who  has been George’s best friend since they flatted together as students – read a loving tribute.

I felt like secret squirrel being privy to such a romantic event as an elopement – what an honour to be a part this day.

We did all the photos in the beautiful back yard which was full of roses and apple trees.

How gorgeous are these two……..

Kat and George, so lovely to meet you both and congratulations on your romantic day.
