Now if there’s one thing You Mean The World To Me strives to be about it’s weddings that are slightly different from the norm, with the ideology of hosting your nuptials somewhere that means something special to you as a couple.
So imagine my delight when this casual and ever so cool camping wedding arrived in my Inbox from the super-talented photographer Oli Sansom!
Now I must admit, when I say camping, this is not your average night under canvas. Today’s couple tied the knot at Spicers Canopy, a luxurious safari-style outdoors retreat set within 5000 acres of pure nature and surrounded by magical mountains in the heart of Queensland’s romantic Scenic Rim – a wonderland for outdoor enjoyment and getting away from it all.
Rosie and Luke gathered their family and friends in this picturesque parkland for a day of understated elegance and uncomplicated comfort. They said their vows in a rustic outdoor setting before sitting down to a tastefully decorated family-style dining feast in the lodge with the star-filled sky and the sounds of the wilderness as their backdrop.
Literally overflowing with fun and personality I think you’ll agree that this is one remarkable wedding and I’m pretty sure it’s one that the wedding guests will never forget! Be sure to make your day memorable by ensuring that it’s perfectly fitting to you and your partner in every way.
Real Wedding – Blissful Beach Elopement
Sophie & Joel ♥ Victoria, Australia
Photographer: Sarah Christensen Photo
At first glance, you could easily mistake Sophie and Joel’s beach elopement as a stylish shoot! Not only did Sophie the bride look effortlessly chic (the ultimate style for a blissful beach elopement) whilst her hubby-to-be and little boy Bill were rocking some serious beach ceremony cool, but the oh-so-talented Sarah Christensen was also by their side to capture the emotion and the nature of this darling day.
Elopements are becoming increasingly popular and it seems that this growth is due to similar reasons that couples tend to have a wedding abroad; they’re looking to tie the knot without the fanfare of a traditional big white wedding at home, and most are hoping for something more intimate, a little different and a wedding that is more unique and personal to them as a couple.
Simple yet overflowing with everything that is important at a wedding: love, happiness, unity and personality, of course!
“Sophie and Joel’s elopement was simple but absolutely stunning. They escaped to a gorgeous little stone cottage in Cape Bridgewater, a tiny town on The Great Ocean Road, Victoria and posted letters to their family and friends on the morning of the wedding to say: Surprise! We’re married.”
