Richard and Nathalie got married in the beautiful garden of Richard’s mother’s house in Courtenay. Their ceremony incorporated many unique elements including a sand ceremony, pouring water over their clasped hands, and jumping the broom (though they forgot to do this and did it at the start of the reception instead). Family was an important […]

Brittany and Mark are Married
Brittany and Mark got married in Mark’s parents’ backyard in Salmon Arm on the September long weekend. The girls got ready at an adorable cabin, where they kept their spirits up despite the threat of rain. Of course, it started pouring on our drive to the wedding, but managed to ease up mostly for the […]
Claire and Pat are Married
So, I’m way behind on blogging weddings from this year. Don’t worry, the couples all got their photos ages ago. Now I get to share them with the rest of you. I love backyard weddings. I sadly only had one this year, but it was so much fun. Claire and Pat are laid back and […]
Elyse and Tasem are Married
Elyse and Tasem (rhymes with “awesome”) got married on a dock in a Prospect Lake backyard in early August. It was an intimate wedding with only family and friends-like-family. Elyse and Tasem did a first look before the ceremony and Tasem had the best expressions awaiting her arrival and once he saw her. I love […]

It was held at an oceanfront family home in Mill Bay with some gorgeous rustic decor elements, like wildflowers in mason jars (with the metal rims still attached). The reception involved the usual […]
Courtenay and Patrick are Married
Finally catching up on some blogging with Courtenay and Patrick’s gorgeous backyard wedding in Gordon Head. Remember them from their rainy day engagement back in March? Courtenay’s gorgeous smile was even bigger on her wedding day. She started the day off at Shampoo Hair Bar with her sister and best girl friends. I loved the […]
Deanna and Jay are Married
Deanna and Jay came from Edmonton to get married in a family friend’s backyard, if you can call it a backyard – it was a sort of tropical paradise mixed with BC forest, including a bridge, waterfall, and gazebo. I was impressed at just the view from their house as the bride put on her […]
