The outdoors ceremony moved indoors but it made for an intimate ceremony. Just before sunset we ventured into the wind for the couples session and then the party ensued. Liz and Pieter are such wonderfully down to earth […]

The Cape Venue Blog @ Bellingham

The adage is “step back in time ” and this is the absolute truth.  My visit out to the beautiful Bellingham estate was just that.
