Joan and David share a love of adventure and rock climbing. That’s why they decided to hold an outdoor ceremony and hire an incredible photographer to take them on a photo shoot adventure through the breathtaking scenery surrounding Ancaster Mill in Ontario. Eyekahfoto expertly captured the couple sharing sweet moments away from the crowd. Warm florals made up the bride’s bouquet and hung in bottles from the white wooden wedding arch. We love this earthy wedding look!

The Couple:

Joan and David

The Wedding:

Ancaster Mill, Ancaster, Ontario

The Inspiration:

When we set out to plan our wedding, we agreed that the ultimate goal was to throw a large party to celebrate not only our marriage, but also our connection with our families and friends. This required plenty of dance floor, an eclectic mix of music, and an open bar. We wanted the venue to be classic and the atmosphere to be warm. We didn’t have an overall wedding decor theme, but followed our gut instinct and aesthetic sense with all major decisions.

The Moments:

Our eclectic wedding theme and relaxed atmosphere set the stage for our favorite moments from the wedding: the emotional speeches from our parents, our personally written vows, and dancing the night away with our friends and relatives.

The Couple Recommends:

The Ancaster Mill was the perfect venue to realize our dream day, and they gave us both the flexibility and guidance we needed. It was love at first sight with my bridal gown designed by Lusan Mandongus, our florist Sue Gallo impressed us with her professionalism and creativity, and my makeup artist Maggie Ng knew what I wanted even when I couldn’t put it in words. Most importantly of all, we had an instant connection with our photographer from Eyekahfoto. She made us feel comfortable to be ourselves and she understood the adventurous spirit of our relationship. We loved that her photos were candid, romantic, and very unique.
