Rustic beach elopement at The Cow Shed in Cornwall
Sarah and Simon had a stunning sunny Cornish elopement at The Cow Shed. I have so much love for this venue, the staff, the team of suppliers that are often seen here and the wonderful nature of the couples that The Cow Shed always seem to attract.
This day was perfect! Beautiful weather, a lovely couple with a handful of family, Sarah’s funny faces, Eyebrow brushing (with an eyebrow toothbrush) a trip to Portwrinkle in the Webb family Mini Cooper (Sally), catching lots of seaweed and branches in the wedding dress and a lovely afternoon tea supplied by the truly wonderful Debbie at Kcal Foods Cornwall.
Thanks so much to Sarah and Simon for giving me the honour of being your photographer and driver for the day! I had an absolute blast!!!

Hiya Sarah and Simon, What’s the story of how you met and got to this awesome stage in your lives:?
We met online, he could have been a serial killer, but all turned out ok! We went walking in a country park for our first date.
What was your favourite part of your elopement?
Simon - watching me walk down the aisle in my dress.
Sarah - seeing simons face as I walked down the aisle to him.
Your favourite story/s from the day - The one/s that you will tell when you are really really old?
Sarah - squeezing my dress into your Mini Cooper and walking down to the beach when it was rather warm and I was fighting with the ever growing collection of seaweed in my train.
What made you The Cow Shed for your elopement?
We loved the rustic and relaxed feel of the venue and that all parts of the day could take place in the same venue.
What made you choose the details and theme/styling for your wedding?
We chose wildflowers, purple and blues as these are my favourite colours and I like rustic and natural things
What advice do you have for couples planning their wedding?
Do it your way and not how everyone else wants you to do it!
I love food, music and entertainment They are the some of the best things about weddings! - What food did you have, was it yummy and what did you have to entertain yourselves and your guests?
We had a relaxed afternoon tea with close family. I walked down the aisle to a thousand years.

We wanted a relaxed photographer that wasn’t too formal and wanted a day that didn’t involve too much posing. We loved the natural style of your photographs. It was lovely working with you on the day. You made us really relaxed and fitted right in. You couldn’t do enough to help us on the day.

Katy and Matt had a super fun and relaxed DIY wedding on Dartmoor. With VW Beetles, speeches that made people ugly cry, a broken bridesmaids dress, a Magician, live music, a homemade bar, Ice cream and pizza vans, a totally dreamy moment where it was raining as the sun came down and we got amazing photos, sticky buns on the dancefloor (yep! haha) and an absolute banger of a party!
