Lavish Garden Hycroft Manor Wedding

October 3, 2022 | justine

Like many soon-to-be-married couples during the pandemic, Naomi and Ting had to postpone their wedding. But they didn’t let the restrictions get in the way of their forever. Set in a grand heritage estate with a mix of vintage and overgrown garden vibes, their Hycroft Manor wedding was just as much about their love as it was about ensuring their guests have an unforgettable experience. They tailored their plans to suit the “new normal,” which included celebrating in the open and a live-streamed ceremony for loved ones who couldn’t attend their big day.

Their enchanting venue provided the natural beauty for their celebration, with its manicured gardens and opulent terraces,. Lush arrangements dotted along the aisle and an asymmetrical arbor complemented the breathtaking outdoor space. After the ceremony, the couple opted for a cocktail party and indulged in passed appetizers and desserts. To top it all off, they kept their guests entertained with personalized favor stations—from DIY bouquets to calligraphy leather keychains. 

With the help of their planner WeDo Weddings Etc., the couple created a wedding filled with intentional moments and stunning details. This Hycroft Manor wedding is definitely an inspiration for couples searching for unique ideas to personalize their big day.

Junebug Member Candice Marie Photography’s Insights On This Hycroft Manor Wedding

Naomi and Ting had to postpone their wedding from 2020 to 2022. In the end, their family couldn’t make it and had to connect via Zoom, but they were able to have close friends and colleagues celebrate with them. The couple put a lot of attention into the details. They wanted the day to feel like a garden party and emphasized the guest experience, as well as their own. The space was made to feel like things were intentionally scattered, fallen over, and overtaken by the garden around them. They wanted the decor to feel like it belonged at the venue. On top of that, the cocktail hour was the real star of the show. They hand-picked their favorites, including an oyster shucking station and a whiskey bar. The flow of this time was very important to them, and they had favor stations where the guests created their own favors. Finally, at the end of the afternoon, they cut the cake, had a private tea ceremony with their parents, and ended the day with a private dinner in downtown Vancouver.

Private Intentional Moments During Their Hycroft Manor Wedding

The personal moments throughout the day made our wedding special and unforgettable. We started the day by having brunch together in the garden. It was very relaxed and set the calm tone for our wedding. After getting ready, we shared private vows during our first look. And since our parents couldn’t make it to the wedding due to travel restrictions, we had a virtual tea ceremony so we could spend some time and celebrate with them.
