Torre Abbey Palm House Wedding Photography – Candi and James’ Elopement

Candi and James always talked about getting married abroad and their original idea was Miami, where they got engaged. But Covid forced them to remain in the UK. Candi and James both love gardens and being outdoors, consequently, they scoured the internet looking for Palm Houses and gardens in the South West. They found Torre Abbey and fell in love. The Palm House was the perfect size for a small wedding and they loved the ruins, the orchard area and the peaceful vibe inside the walled garden.

Candi took her dress inspiration from Jenny Packham. She loved the beads, embellishments and Great Gatsby vibe, but didn’t want to spend too much. She was thrilled to find this beautiful Monsoon dress, Augusta.

James’ parents were their only guests and witnesses, so it was lovely to get some natural portraits of them too!

Candi’s favourite colour is teal, as a result they chose that for James’ suit.

The blush pink colour for the flowers was inspired by the back of James’ waistcoat. Candi didn’t want a bouquet and instead went for a wrist corsage and hair piece from Karina Wedding.
