Their ceremony was nothing short of magical, complete with two “dogs of honour,” Bruce and Winston who added a touch of joy and authenticity to the proceedings.

A Magical Morning Finale

As if the day weren’t magical enough, some guests made the most of their stay by enjoying a morning swim in the serene waters of Indian Arm. It was a fitting finale to a wedding that perfectly blended adventure, intimacy, and joy.

A Timeless Celebration
