When I first met Sara and Michael, I thought they seemed kind of shy and reserved. He is a librarian after all (though judging by other librarian clients, I should know better). They were pretty chill at their engagement shoot. But their wedding involved some spectacle: a choreographed first dance to “You’re My Best Friend” […]

Vancouver Island has many great rustic wedding locations, including wineries and cideries, which are great for having both ceremonies and receptions.
Sarica and Mukul are Married
Sarica and Mukul had their third wedding celebration at Sea Cider in August. Yes, third. They had a small civil ceremony followed by a big wedding in India earlier this year. This wedding was a chance to celebrate with all of their family and friends in Canada. The day was just jam packed with events, […]
Laura and Daniel are Married
Laura and Daniel got married on a Tuesday at the end of June. The day was brutally hot, but they managed to look glamorous anyway (check out her open back dress). The ceremony and reception took place at Kildara Farms, which is a gorgeous spot for the wedding and portraits. The morning was fun with lots […]
Alison and Philip are Married
Alison and Philip had an intimate wedding at Merridale Cider with only family in attendance, including her brother sharing officiant duty. I love these small weddings and how everyone feels so comfortable with each other. The emotions and laughter flowed easily. Their ceremony was lovely and an eventful mix of religious traditions, including a simply […]
Catriona and Marco are Married
Catriona and Marco had probably the most eventful ceremony I’ve ever seen. They had friends/family do readings and sing. Catriona read vows to Marco’s daughter (now their daughter), which was so sweet. They had the best programs (see an excerpt below) and her brother even had a matching “Don’t Panic” hat, which he claimed was […]
Megan and Luke are Married
Megan and Luke had a late August wedding at Merridale Cider. Megan is one of those girls who you don’t expect to be nice, because she’s so darn gorgeous. But she’s super sweet too. I think one measure of how great a person is is how emotional their friends get during the wedding toasts, and […]
Shannon and Eric are Married
Shannon and Eric were married at Sea Cider in early August. Shannon is an artist and clearly put a lot of effort and care into every detail of their wedding. Verbena Floral Design‘s amazing flowers were the perfect complement to the DIY details, along with many items by individual artisans. I loved that Eric had […]
Arissa and Chad are Married
Arissa and Chad were married in July at beautiful, rustic Bird’s Eye Cove Farm in Duncan. I was so excited to finally visit this venue and it didn’t disappoint. It was raining fairly heavily just as we were about to head out to the ceremony. They decided to wait five minutes and see if it […]
Kristin and Dylan are Married
Kristin and Dylan’s late June wedding at Sea Cider was a beautiful, fun event. These two, and their wedding party, were very chill and cheerful – super easy to work with. The morning started out, for me, with a relaxed few hours watching the girls getting ready at Abigail’s Hotel. Kristin and Dylan did their […]
Katie and Justin are Married
Katie and Justin’s wedding at Merridale Cider in June was a spirited affair. When the bride wears cowboy boots, you know she knows how to have a good time. And this time, the whole wedding party had them on too. The couple’s daughter was one of their adorable flower girls. She was a bit shy […]
