Stephanie Cumming and Andrew Jeffrey are big fans of the outdoors \u2013 spending their weekends, four-wheel driving, fishing and bushwalking.<\/p>\n

So naturally the pair, aged 29 and 28, decided to hold a country<\/a> wedding, and Dargo in regional Victoria was the ideal spot. \u201cDargo features two pubs and a general store, and more of less functions as a stopover [town],\u201d says Stephanie. \u201cThe Dargo River Inn Tavern was an ideal venue for our wedding, with a large green lawn for the ceremony and a flat paved area to erect a marquee, not to mention a backdrop of rolling green hills, and a pub with a casual atmosphere and good cold beer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Creating their own d\u00e9cor<\/a> for the day was a major focus for the couple, who also enlisted the help of family to create their dream day on November 12, 2016. \u201cMonths of planning, collecting and harnessing our creative skills, we had endless compliments on our attention to detail and personal touches,\u201d explains Stephanie.<\/p>\n

Most notable was the ceremony arch created by the bride\u2019s father using tree branches and gum leaves. \u201cDad also surprised me by recycling the old front door to the family home I grew up in, creating a charming set of entrance doors to walk through at the ceremony.\u201d<\/p>\n

“The best part about having our wedding in Dargo is that we didn’t have any restrictions or limitation in how we wanted the day to run,” smiles the bride.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
