Templewood House Elopement // Tori & Tom

Weddings come in all different shapes and sizes, Tori and Tom’s size was around 40 of their closest people and their shape was a Templewood House elopement on a Friday evening. This was day 1 of what was supposed to be a historic rain event (it wasn’t) so tensions were high in the lead up, back up plans were ready to be activated at a moment’s notice, but in the end their wonderful celebrant Karen Lynch didn’t have to face a tough decision, the sun was shining and we were all systems go for an open air wedding.

There’s not too much more I can add with my words, the photos tell a far better story, but I have to say that of all the weddings I’ve shot at Templewood House, this was my favourite horse experience so far. Just look a the photos!
