Why Ben's Falls

Family, land, and a few days to breathe

The place that means the most to us.

Family and land

[PLACEHOLDER — Jono/Ellen to replace] Ben's Falls Retreat is Ellen's family land — a working property on the Severn River that's been part of family gatherings for years. Say a little about whose land it is, how long it's been in the family, and what it means to have the wedding here rather than anywhere else.

Adventures on the property

[PLACEHOLDER — Jono/Ellen to replace] The fishing, the river, the walks, the dams — the trips and weekends that made this the obvious choice. A specific memory or two lands better than a general description.

Why the Easter long weekend

[PLACEHOLDER — Jono/Ellen to replace] Most guests are travelling a long way to be here, so we've built the wedding around the Easter long weekend rather than a single Saturday — time to arrive properly, be part of the weekend, and not just rush in and out for an afternoon.

To fill in: the paragraphs above are placeholders. Replace each with two or three sentences in your own words. A photo or two of the property, or of the two of you there, would sit well here — they'll be converted to black and white to match the rest of the site.
