A celebration across the seas. Travelling from Australia, these two married among the lavender fields of Bilston Creek Farm on Vancouver Island. Most of their guests were also from Australia, who took the long journey to celebrate K&B's love story.
They exchanged heartfelt vows in the timber-frame barn, where lavender bundles were strung to dry. Afterwards, they shared wood-fired pizza in the orchard with their guests, and enjoyed speeches and toasts after that.
To finish, or shall I say, start the night off? the entire guest list shifted via bus charter to The Duke Saloon. A well-worn country bar in the downtown Victoria area, you'll find bovine skulls on the walls here, and a giant photo of a shirtless cowboy. This sets the scene as they rocked the floorboards to the live band, The Pickups, and shared a simple heart-shaped cake that read "Just Married."
It was fun, and playful, with a powerful sense of community. A wedding I'll never forget! Congratulations K&B!
