Brighton Elopement - Family, Fries & Forever

As a photographer, there are moments that truly stand out and this Brighton elopement was one of them. Imagine a day filled with genuine love, quirky details and a sense of adventure that turns an ordinary Wednesday into an extraordinary celebration.

Meet Myer and Matt, a couple who decided to forgo the traditional wedding route and instead chose an intimate elopement in the vibrant city of Brighton. With just me, their photographer, and a babysitter as witnesses (two people they had never met before), they exchanged vows with their two adorable boys in tow.

The day started with a simple, heartfelt ceremony. Myer and Matt opted for a minimalistic approach, focusing on what truly mattered, their love and their little family. The boys, dressed in their cutest outfits, added a charming touch to the ceremony. The absence of a large crowd made the moment even more special, allowing Myer and Matt to fully immerse themselves in their vows.

Following the ceremony, we set off to capture some fun and spontaneous photos. In a delightful twist, Myer and Matt decided to celebrate with Burger King chips. The sight of the newlyweds sharing a laugh over fries was nothing short of heartwarming. It was a perfect reflection of their down-to-earth personalities.

Brighton Pier served as a stunning backdrop for the next set of photos. The boys were able to take in their surroundings and explore, creating candid and precious moments. The couple's matching family Converse added an extra layer of fun to the photos, symbolizing their unity and playful spirit.

Our adventure continued through The Lanes, Brighton's iconic maze of narrow streets and eclectic shops. The vibrant street art and charming boutiques provided endless opportunities for creative shots. Myer and Matt's tattoos of their wedding date were unique, showcasing their commitment in a personal and unconventional way. Instead of exchanging rings, they chose these tattoos, a lasting reminder of their special day.

Myer and Matt's elopement was a beautiful reminder that weddings don't have to be grand to be meaningful. Their day was a true reflection of their personalities and their love for each other. It was intimate, joyful and filled with moments that will be cherished forever.
