REAL WEDDING - The Simply Gorgeous Minimalist Wedding Of  Anna & Thom, Captured By Nova Wedding Photography At East Soar Farm, DevonThe beautiful eco-conscious wedding of Anna and Thom was captured by the talented Nova Wedding Photography. This day, full of love and laughter (and the couple's rescue dogs!), demonstrates how minimalist styling is all you need to pull off an exceptional wedding day!

The Venue

Anna and Thom had legally tied the knot before the day, so held a humanist blessing instead, with a 'hand-holding' rather than 'hand-tying' ceremony (during which they were not at all upstaged by the antics of their dogs, no, not one bit haha).
