Affinity Guesthouse | Elaine & Chris {Married} Part II

My wedding season is winding down.  Only 3 more to go unless there are any last minute additions.  After I tucked Hayden into his cozy bed tonight I took a few minutes for myself to putter in my garden.  I picked a bowl full of plump blackberries with the intention of making Darren his favourite crisp.  As we are still getting settled in our new home I am still getting used to our new yard and my gardens which are being somewhat neglected.  I wandered around admiring and literally smelling the roses.  I picked up the hose and gave our dahlia’s and kiwis a good drink.  It was getting dark now, so I got the laundry from the line and came inside.  Those few moments to just be still, relax and centred were bliss. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t looking forward to Fall where I can spend more time in my garden and continue to enjoy the simpler things in life.  But once wedding season is over I will miss it.  Can’t believe it is nearing an end already.

If you missed Part I of Elaine and Chris’ beautiful wedding you can view their images here.

And now for Part II … ENJOY !  Feel free to leave a comment, I’d love to hear from you!

Once again huge thanks to Erica of Rook and Rose Floral Design Boutique for putting together such stunning florals and helping style this amazing wedding.  Also to Cortnie Clarke for doing such a fabulous job on Elaine’s make-up.  She does amazing work if you’d like to get in touch you can find Cortnie at Crave Beauty in Duncan.

Now onto some pretty portraits.

I love how you captured all the pretty details. You see it all and show it in a beautiful way. Enjoy the fall, the colors and the crispy air!

Hi Kim – I DO have kiwis growing in my yard 🙂 We have a huge bush or tree. Not sure what you call it 😉 You just need a male and female plant for them to grow. There is actually a kiwi farm near Mitchell’s Market and Island View beach area. Rows upon rows of them!
