Frances and Josh wanted an earthy, cosy and romantic vibe for their wedding; being nature lovers themselves, they chose an outdoor sustainable education centre for their venue. Kortright Centre for Conservation is nestled among 325 hectares of woodland, so you better believe we walked around taking photos among the sugar maples and pine tree plantations. Seeing that the wedding was in February, Frances wanted to bring warmth and nature into the wedding but using lots of candles, mostly greenery for their florals, and bistro lighting in each room. Frances is also a very talented artist and knit the ties for the groomsmen, socks for Josh (groom), her shawl, and the blankets that were keeping everyone warm during the ceremony! The table numbers are cut from a tree that Frances planted when she was seven years old, which was such a nice sentimental touch!
