The Manor Wedding in Basket Range – Jasmine & Rikki

Celebrating love amidst the enchanting backdrop of The Manor in Basket Range is always a magical experience. Jasmine and Rikki’s wedding day might have started with a bit of rain, but that only added to the charm and intimacy of their beautiful celebration. Nestled in the picturesque Adelaide Hills, The Manor provided the perfect setting for a memorable wedding day, even with the weather’s little surprises.

Jasmine and Rikki’s wedding was initially planned to take place in front of the charming little chapel on site. However, with the rain coming down, a last-minute change saw the ceremony moved to the undercover area in front of the smaller function room on the lower level. This adjustment didn’t dampen the spirits one bit; instead, it brought everyone closer together, creating a cozy and intimate atmosphere that was simply perfect for such a special occasion.

Preparation

The day began with a buzz of excitement as both Jasmine and Rikki prepared on site. Rikki and his groomsmen occupied the small room at the end of the complex, exuding a laid-back vibe as they got ready. Their main focus was getting the photos done swiftly so they could relax and enjoy the day. Dressed to impress, they laughed and shared stories, setting a light-hearted tone for the day ahead.

Meanwhile, Jasmine and her entourage were upstairs above the main doors, filling the air with laughter and joy. The bride and her bridesmaids indulged in some fun and silliness, making the preparation time a delightful prelude to the ceremony. Jasmine, radiant in her wedding gown, was the picture of happiness, despite a tinge of disappointment about not having the ceremony in front of the chapel. Nonetheless, her positive spirit shone through, and she embraced the day with grace and excitement.
