| 17 Oct | Minna & Justinposted in: Engagement Photography | Oct 2007 |
Minna & Justin are getting married early next year in a small, private ceremony. They wanted to get together this fall for some engagement photos after seeing the images we did for Minna’s sister Sandy & her new hubby Wes earlier this summer!
The rain and monsoon like winds changed our original plans, but we had a lot of fun seeking out great spots regardless. Here are a few of our favs!

On Saturday we headed to the Beach House at Dundarave Pier for the wedding of Heather and Justin.
The weather didn’t cooperate, but Heather chose to keep the ceremony exactly where she wanted it – on the beach. And how gorgeous it was! The matching umbrellas they’d bought for just such a day were perfect

The Ceremony
Indoor portraits – I love both of these shots, I can’t decide which I like more!
And of course, a run outside in the rain
The rings – with just a few of the many wine glasses. Wine and great food were two of the biggest themes, with each of the food stations carefully paired with just the perfect wine.
The Cake – kudos to Paula at Aeyra Cakes for an amazing job on this one!
And of course, the reception. Oh, the reception! Between the guys serenading Heather during the garter removal to the group performance of the Grease soundtrack, there’s no lack of great dancing and reception shots. Here are just a few to give a taste of the night!
CONGRATS, Heather & Justin, have a FANTASTIC time on your honeymoon in Italy!
Also, a big shout out to Erin & Alicia from DreamGroup who were on hand to keep everything running smoothly
Cheers!

Wow.
You know, we go to a lot of weddings and we’ve seen countless different venues and types of celebrations. And sometimes, things really just click for us. This was one of those times.
We were married 7 years ago (as of last week! weu!) and I can absolutely say that if we were to do it all over again right now, this would be the exact way to do it.
Small, destination wedding. Not very far away though – Tofino/Ucleulet is so very close and yet feels like it’s worlds away. A big house to hold the wedding and reception as well as to provide accomodations for a sizeable group of friends and family. Beach and rocks and waves and trees. Amazing food served all night long. Mingling. Drinking. Gorgeous details and decor. And most importantly, an incredible group of family and friends to share it with.

Congratulations again to you both, from the bottom of our hearts. It was such an honour to be there to celebrate with you!
Kudos to Camilla at Crabapple Floral in Tofino who blows me away each time we do a wedding in Tofino or Ucleulet with her gorgeous work, and to our friends Albertine & Brina from Blue Skies and Daisies who did their magic with invites and website goodies here as well. It was great to see you both! Here’s one final shot of the Blue Skies clan!

On Saturday Sandy & Wes were married! The bouncy castle (yes, bouncy castle!) unfortunately had to be cancelled due to the rain, but despite the forecast the rain held off for most of the afternoon allowing us to head out to Iona Beach for some photos before the evening ceremony, which was a treat. Here’s Sandy out on the beach -
And again before the ceremony, with her bridesmaids at the Hart House
Married!!
Amazing flowers, decor, and cake

And the first dance – proof that these two didn’t let the rain outside get them down! We’ve never seen a crowd with more amazing dancers than these two had, and the night was kicked off by a well rehearsed number by the bride & groom.
Sandy & Wes are already well on their way to South Africa for their honeymoon. Congrats again, guys, we’ll see you when you get back!
Kudos to the team at Hart House for the location and amazing food, Unique Boutique for gorgeous flowers and decor, and Cakewalk for the cake and cupcakes! Together you guys put on one heck of a gorgeous wedding!
