“When she smiles her whole face lights up,” Will told me before he saw Sarah for the first time as a bride and I have to agree….its so very true. Sarah’s smile is contagious, and its no wonder why Will fell in love with her. Their wedding was a smouldering day in July, with the most perfect sunset, amazing food, friends, and family. It was a perfect summer afternoon, and it was Sarah and Will’s wedding day!
When Sarah was getting in her gown she was laughing with excitement, her mom sisters and best-friend joined in her happiness and her dad sat in awe of his little girl who was ‘all grown up.’ It was quit the moment and I felt honoured to be a witness. When she was ready she went to see Will for their first site meeting. Pure joy and a few tears were shed, but mostly these two could not keep their eyes off one another.
After formal photos (or as I like to call them…pure fabulousness and fun photos) we headed back to Sarah’s parents property for the ceremony. Immediately to follow were cocktails, appetizers and a wonderful dinner put on by Dave’s Catering. It was a country inspired, mason jar loving, purple colored, warm, loving, and full of laughter wedding. It was perfect.
Sarah and Will, you are both truly amazing. Thank you for having Michael and I be apart of your wedding. You will always be extra special to me as you both are my first published couple in a wedding magazine. Cheers to both of you. Xo Lisa
Sarah had her grandmother’s veil re-worked for a gorgeous hair piece…..I hope this inspires others.

Man shots…
Sarah and Will saw each-other before the wedding, and to make it extra special their “first site” was done in the privacy of trees and a custom swing built by Sarah’s father…..just for her wedding.
From there we travelled to Jack’s Fishing lodge for some fun and fabulous bridal party photographs, completed with Sarah and Wills formals. I have to thank Donna for her permission to use the gorgeous property.
