2014 Reflections: Love at The Doctors House

Couple gets engaged at our Newfoundland inn and spaWe’re ending our blogging year with reflections on our favourite moments from 2014. And of course, given that this year was the first we offered weddings at The Doctor’s House, our immediate thoughts turned to love! We were so honoured to play a big role in many couple’s journeys this year, from engagement all the way to betrothal and beyond.

First, above you’ll see Bradley proposing to Lisa. This was our first proposal (that we know of!) at The Doctor’s House, and thanks to some help from our Love Fairies (namely, our staff, Rosemary, Heather and Jessica, who decorated their room while they enjoyed spa treatments), it went off swimmingly.

This picture was snapped on a walk down to the water for a picnic – which is just about the most romantic way we can think of to celebrate an engagement!

Danielle left us this incredibly sweet message on Facebook: “Was so happy with our stay the other night. what an amazing place, great animals who you can tell are so very loved, such cheery friendly people, and great food. But the lasting memory will always be getting engaged in your barn !! thanks for everything.”

Of course, thanks to the hard work of our dedicated team, and thanks to The Berry’s Vision, The Doctor’s House opened its magnificent doors and hosted several weddings this summer. We fell in love with the couples who shared their special days with us, and we’re happy to be able to share some of their lovely photos. Above is Christa and Bhasker. This truly beautiful photo of a truly beautiful couple was taken by MK Photography.

Wedding at The Doctor's House NewfoundlandAnd this picture, amazingly captured on a camera-phone, caused quite the commotion this year. Doesn’t it look like a magazine shot? It’s actually from Danielle and Christan’s wedding, our most recent at The Doctors House. The little girl is their daughter, who is very sweet – not unlike her parents, a beautiful couple that you can’t help but fall in love with. Please see more pics of their gorgeous day on Facebook, but for now, look at that little dress, and those little helpers, and try not to swoon!

A big thank you and congratulations to all the countless couples that have celebrate events and milestones, big and little, with us and with The Doctor’s House this year. We’re looking forward to another busy wedding season, and can’t wait to make more dreams come true.

A Congratulations Are in Order!

Couple gets engaged at our Newfoundland spaHere’s Danielle and Justin, an incredibly sweet couple who recently got engaged at The Doctor’s House – and we couldn’t be happier for them! We’re always thrilled when we’re included in such special moments (and check out that ring!). We wish Danielle and Justin all the happiness in the world and the best of luck on their journey to marriage – and we hope to see them again soon! (And, did you see that ring!).

Thanks to Danielle for sharing her beautiful photos and story – we love getting feedback! Here’s what she told us on our Facebook page: “Was so happy with our stay the other night. what an amazing place, great animals who you can tell are so very loved, such cheery friendly people, and great food. But the lasting memory will always be getting engaged in your barn !! thanks for everything.”

To which we say a hearty thank you, and a hearty you’re welcome, too!

Love is in the (Ocean) Air

We had another first here at the cottages, of the best kind. Corey proposed to Amanda while staying in The Gannet, and she said ‘yes’ – and we couldn’t be happier for them. We felt blessed to be involved in the process in even a small way. Corey and Amanda were clearly made for each other, their smiles bigger than the diamond, their obvious love for each other making the mood here sweet and electric at the same time. Am I rambling? Don’t blame me – blame it on the young love!

While it’s too early to have set a date yet, we wish Corey and Amanda all the best and hope to see them back. They’ll at least have to send us some wedding photos!
