matthew and maxine
are getting married!
LOVE STORY
It started soft — a shift, a glance,
Not planned, not chased, not born of chance.
Just something in the way we moved,
Unwritten paths, somehow approved.
We met, we paused, we circled slow,
Not quite yes, not fully no.
But something stirred beneath the sun —
A knowing, quiet, just begun.
No vows were made, but stars aligned,
Then borrowed time we came to find.
And still, we stayed — through light and rain,
With every turn, we’d meet again.
Now here we stand, with steady grace,
Two souls at peace in one shared place.
MAXINE &
MATTHEW

An open bar will flow throughout the evening, offering a curated selection of wines, spirits, and refreshments to savour as we celebrate together.
As the night draws to a close, you will be welcomed to stay on the farm, where a room will be prepared for you with our compliments. Rooms will be shared, and final arrangements will be confirmed nearer to the date.
We kindly ask that our guests dress in formal attire, selected to complement the timeless charm of the countryside.
Let your attire be kissed by the colours of the earth – creamy linens, warm sand, olive green, soft rose, muted peach, gentle stone, and autumn umber.
