Nine lucky guests were present for Larissa and Japo’s wildly romantic Twamley Farm elopement which took just 90 days to plan. Photographer Alysa Nemeth captured the celebration.<\/p>\n

Larissa and Japo’s met in the picturesque setting of Margaret River wine country. “He was the Assistant Winemaker and I was working a causal backpacker job as I was travelling around Australia,” Larissa remembers of their meet-cute. “I was meant to spend six months in WA and that was eight years ago…”<\/p>\n

After initially planning a celebration in Japo’s home country of Italy, the couple looked to their upcoming winter trip to Tasmania for a chance to wed. With just 90 days to find a venue and plan their day, Larissa and Japo were over the moon with the response from their chosen guests. “Our amazing friends in Margaret River jumped at the chance to come with us. The nine people we invited, RSVPed the next day.”<\/p>\n

With stunning rustic stone lodgings, woodfire hot tubs and a tranquil farm setting, Twamley Farm quickly captured Larissa and Japo’s hearts. “We needed a venue that could offer everything,” Larissa explains. “If you’re looking for a gorgeous, intimate venue that is affordable and stress-free, it is your place! We can’t wait to revisit on an anniversary.”<\/p>\n

Between airport mishaps and a forecast of heavy rain, the lead-up to Larissa and Japo’s wedding day was not quite as relaxing as they had hoped. “I still am trying to forget running through Perth airport with my wedding dress flung over my shoulder trying to make the plane,” laughs Larissa of their pre-wedding adventure. “Somehow it all came together.”<\/p>\n

In Twamley Farm’s 200-year-old accommodation, the couple prepared separately before a romantic first look. Larissa paired her elegant, lace gown from\u00a0 Love Bridal by Madi Lane<\/a><\/strong> with Bludstones to combat the rain. Alyssa Nemeth<\/a><\/strong> explored the property with the couple, taking advantage of the drizzly weather for some atmospheric shots.<\/p>\n

The pair wed under an ancient pine tree with an arbour of tulle and deer antlers \u2014 sans umbrellas for the sake of the photographs. After “I do”, celebratory champagne and oysters were served under the balcony of the main house, as it continued to rain. Guests mingled around the fire pit, donning sheepskin throws to keep warm.<\/p>\n

The evening flowed seamlessly into an intimate winter wedding feast in the homestead cellar stone room beside a roaring fire. “The day was pretty exciting to start and had its ups and downs, but because it was just us, with some close friends there was no drama or stress,” explains Larissa. “If there had been 100 other people to think of it wouldn’t have been the same. We knew the day would unfold as it was meant to and it was exquisite.”<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Our photographer, Alysa, was fantastic and such a trooper. She had to drive through floods and closed road to get to us, then we made her tramp around in the rain through a sheep farm to get the perfect shot. Her dedication absolutely shows in our photos and we were delighted with every shot. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
