Anna & Ben

A late-March wedding under the avenue, the light at five doing the thing it does. Ninety-two guests, jazz quartet, a marquee on the werf.

Anna and Ben had been engaged for two years and to the farm three times before they booked. They wanted the avenue ceremony, they wanted the werf hall and they wanted a guest list of under a hundred, which we can hold to with the Garden package on a Thursday.

They got married on a Thursday in late March. The light was the colour we tell every couple about and they sometimes don't believe. The jazz quartet played from the cocktail hour through to the speeches, then the band came in for the dancing.

They stayed in the Bride's Suite for two nights. We sent them away on Saturday morning with a basket of leftover pastries and the bouquet, which had survived everything.
