At times it could have been a school reunion or even a family reunion …we could have been in a gorgeous, manor house on an estate in the English countryside not just became of the accents & laughter that were cutting the air, but mainly the astounding venue, Yester Grange, near Wentworth Falls. I think all our venues are amazing BUT this place is out of this world. As you wander through the grounds of maple trees past 100 year old homes & conifers that soar to impossible heights to the edge of the valley overlooking the Blue Mountains you could almost be hang gliding.

Jess was every inch the stunner in a remarkably, unique dress from Pallas Couture & Woody, well he was his charming, handsome self. A planned trip to Lincoln Rock for sunset took us on a whole new adventure when Jess’s beautiful veil – as in ” That’s not a veil THIS is a veil ! ” was whipped from her hair by the wind a flew & flew & kept going for about 1 km before coming rest in a tree in a neighbours backyard. A few of the local residents eating their dinner in front of the friday night tv were then treated to the sight of a bride & groom driving up their driveways & me knocking on their windows saying ” I know this is going to sound a bit odd but I have a bride here whose veil ………  ” you can guess the rest. Groomsmen Ben, who you will see. as you scroll down, carrying a massive wine vat on his back ” because it had to be done ” spent half an hour, 5 metres up a tree, trying to saw off the tree branch it was nestled in – definitely the sort of groomsmen every man needs.

A massive thank you to Rachel from Rachel H Photography for stepping in to help me & for being so hospitable & skillful – anyone looking for a shooter in the area ( & if you don’t want to fly me down ) grab Rachel straight away !

Thanks for having us Jess & Woody, thanks for the laughter & brilliance, this will live long in the memory.

PS I am SO glad you got the veil back xoxo it is now a family heirloom !
