Julia and Adam ran away to Vancouver from their home in England to get married!

Tied the knot this morning, skiing this afternoon, and then on a plane to Hawaii tomorrow for their honeymoon before coming back to spend some time in Whistler. Sounds wonderful!

Reilly and I were honoured to meet up with them for just an hour today to capture the private ceremony and grab a few quick portraits.  Here’s just a quick peek at the day! Congrats again!

Alexa & Gary tied the knot atop Grouse Mountain on Saturday. The kind of people who don’t tend to take themselves too seriously, we had a lot of laughs with them and their crew taking pictures around Coal Harbour before heading out for the ceremony.

The Venue at Night

And then there were the details - oh, the details. I loved the details. Fancy papers and ribbon were hiding if you looked - everywhere from the menu at the bar to the reserved signs on the chairs.  The favours became a game as instead of names they had pictures of each guest, some recent and some not so recent, prompting a game of “where the heck am I?!” for each person as they came in. The cake table was decorated with colour coordinated buttons, mimicing the candy buttons in each cupcake. And, finally, Alexa and her mom sewed the cutest little teabags for her favours out of the coolest fabric I’ve seen in a while. Not a single piece of the decor was your typical wedding fare, and after spending some time with these two I can say that it was exactly perfect.

Cheers!

Cheryl & Corey came to Vancouver this weekend from their home in San Francisco for their wedding! The Pan Pacific was the perfect backdrop for their reception following their church ceremony and pictures in a park, on the beach, and in Coal Harbour.

There were so many unique details that I haven’t even touched on sharing here - gorgeous flowers and decor, a lion dance for an entrance, a tea ceremony, Filipino dancers, the list goes on! I couldn’t decide which images to share, but I settled on a few and will leave the best for the highlights slideshow to come

Congratulations again, guys!

While the original plans of a wedding in Vegas with all the bells and whistles didn’t materialize, the Vancouver based celebration being planned is bound to more than rival any Vegas do.

Vanessa and Nino are getting married in May of next year and we’ll be particularly looking forward to shooting at the Elliott Louis Gallery for their reception. Looking forward to it!
