Jennifer’s favourite hobby is cooking, while JC  counts his number one hobby as eating! The wedding was filled with special touches that reflected the couple’s love of good food! The floral arrangements contained fresh herbs.

    I adore sunflowers. Such an underused flower for weddings. This is spectacular!
