Winter Wedding Elopement at Rockwood Conservation Area

Winter Wedding Elopement Rockwood Conservation Area

I was fortunate to be able to capture this beautiful couple's elopement wedding. The day started in Cambridge, went to Guelph, and ended in Rockwood at the conservation area. In total, I was on the road for about 7 or 8 hours. I go through the whole timeline of the day. This is a great way to see how long everything involved in an elopement can take. You can definitely make your elopement as fancy, unique, or as extravagant as you want, because elopements are for you, and for you two alone. Keep reading for more info about this day and how the elopement all went down.

Kitchener - Home

8am - First thing is to clean off the van and then take all of my equipment out and pack all into the van, thankfully my assistant (aka my husband) was able to do most of the loading while I got all set and ready for the day. Then on to feeding my kids, getting them ready, and taking them over to my parents house for some babysitting (Thank God for grandparents!). Then over to Cambridge to meet the bride, Ashley, over at Luna Salon for 930am.

Yadira and Irma run a great place in Galt,  close to Cambridge Memorial Hospital. On a personal note, I actually use Luna Salon for my own hair. I highly recommend them. Not only are they great at hair and makeup, but they also speak Spanish, bonus! I love being able to connect with other Latina business owners  in my area. I met the bride at the salon at 930ish and Yadira did a great job in getting her all set for her big day.

We were there for a couple hours. Beauty takes time folks. I was happy to take so many photos of Ashley, while my husband chatted and kept the groom company. I know maybe the groom shouldn't see the bride, but they are eloping! so all the rules are out the door. After Yadira finished everything up, Ashley got into her dress (courtesy of JJhouse), Ashley and Jack put on there backpacks and Jackets and headed out to our first stop in Guelph (about a 20 minute drive) at a pretty unique coffee shop there called Balzac's Coffee. Try them out if you have a chance.

Guelph - Balzac's Coffee

First off, thanks to Balzac's and everybody inside for being so accommodating. I absolutely love the decor and aesthetics of Balzac's. I have been to them in Guelph, Kitchener, and Stratford and have loved all of them. I think these photos speak for them selves, don't you?

After we stopped for a quick snack and some caffeinated fuel, we started off to Rockwood. This was about a 15 minuted drive from Balzac's in Guelph. We arrived in Rockwood at around 1230pm.

Rockwood - Rockwood Conservation Area

Rockwood Conservation Area is overseen by the Grand River Conservation Authority. My family really enjoys going to these parks and so we have a season pass that we purchased last year.

Winter Wedding Elopement at the beautiful Rockwood Conservation Area about 10 minutes away of Guelph and 25 minutes from Georgetown and Milton. Rockwood Conservation Area has tons of deep, green trees, towering limestone cliffs, caves,glacial potholes, large pond, small waterfalls, and old ruins of a mill, and you can even go camping, and swimming at the beach during the summer months.There is canoe renting, or bring your own canoe (especially for those cute engagement and elopement photos in the canoe)

Rockwood Conservation Area is not only a great place for Winter Wedding Elopements, but is a great place for any season. Lots of greenery, beaches, canoeing for those summer elopements. Beautiful oranges, yellows and browns in the fall-time as well. I was there last fall, and it autumn views were spectacular. Take a look below for some other great photos of this winter elopement.
