Emily & Nathan’s Laidback Templeton on Murray Wedding

 

There was something immediately special about Emily and Nathan’s wedding at Templeton on Murray. Set among the gardens and native bushland of the Riverland, their day felt beautifully relaxed from the very beginning—less about fuss and formality, and more about gathering all their favourite people in one place. They were married overlooking the Murray River, surrounded by wild native flowers, huge gums and even a few curious alpacas wandering nearby.

After the ceremony came an explosion of confetti, hugs and happy chaos, followed by an afternoon spent mingling in the garden. Guests shared drinks and grazing platters, played games and simply enjoyed being together while Emily and Nathan soaked it all in. Their portraits felt completely at home in the landscape: natural, earthy and wonderfully unfussy, with their wedding party gathered beneath towering gums and the warm Riverland cliffs.

As evening arrived, everyone made their way into the glowing marquee for speeches, dancing and a very enthusiastic champagne spray beneath the festoon lights. Emily and Nathan had hoped for a laidback outdoor celebration filled with love—and that is exactly what their Templeton on Murray wedding became. Not just a beautiful Riverland wedding, but a day that felt unmistakably like them.
