, , , , , A Beautiful First for me, in the exquisite and natural exchange between Pat and Brittany, of fresh flower wedding rings.

The stunning local bride and groom set a natural theme above and beyond any setting I have had the privelege to attend, on their property here in Agnes Water. LOVE surrounded them in every essence of natural beauty.

What is Your Vision of Ceremony?
A true elopement style, historically, is the union in marriage of two people with two witnesses. Regardless of the time of day, season or location, just the two of you, witnesses can be arranged for you by Penelope.

A Popular Optional Ceremony Inclusion, often read following the exchange of wedding rings, is this beautiful and poignant reading;-

Blessing of The Hands by the Rev Daniel L. Harris 🤝🙏🍂

These are the hands of your best friend, young and strong and full of love for you,
that are holding yours on your wedding day, as you promise to love each other today, tomorrow, and forever.

These are the hands that will work alongside yours, as together you build your future.
These are the hands that will passionately love you and cherish you through the years, and with the slightest touch, will comfort you like no other.
These are the hands that will hold you when fear or grief fills your mind.
These are the hands that will countless times wipe the tears from your eyes; tears of sorrow, and tears of joy.

These are the hands that will tenderly hold your children.
These are the hands that will help you to hold your family as one.
These are the hands that will give you strength when you need it.
And lastly, these are the hands that even when wrinkled and aged,
will still be reaching for yours,
still giving you the same unspoken tenderness - with just a touch.

Wedding Dress WWII designed and cut from Parachute Silk. Known simply as The Parachute Dress, it was not uncommon for Brides to find this as a truly affordable option during such tough and emotional recovery times.

The Australian War Brides stories are well known to some of us, including those whose Aunts and Uncles fell madly in love, shipping mostly, to a New Life in a New World. Such an enormous part of our history. 🌺https://australianwomeninnewyork.org/2015/10/22/explore-a-little-known-chapter-of-history-the-australian-war-brides/

With the happy beating of lovers hearts, a quiet loving private marriage ritual and ceremony was to take place.
Set just beyond the palms in a private space, the happy couple with their children too, enjoyed the magic of a sunset so soft and serene, catered for in a romantic bud lit soiree as set by local Wedding services stylist, Mel of Coastal Rush Picnics, Weddings & Events ( set arbour too for this celebration).
A couple of local witnesses were rallied, and a sincere loving inclusive exchange of vows and rings unfolded.
Things have changed largely in Seventeen Seventy and Agnes Water, and many spaces once enjoyed quietly by few, are no longer optional for many reasons, mostly the increased popularity to many.
So please have a think about whether you wish to be married around onlookers, and busy spaces, or whether a quieter space is your preference. Then we can suitably consider time of day and location. Don't worry there are still some beautifully quiet spaces available, even during busy holiday times.
