Warm florals and gold accents added a pop of color to Chloë and Andrew’s classic outdoor wedding in Ontario, Canada. The couple personalized their day by allowing one of their good friends to officiate their wedding. They also chose to write their own vows in order for their ceremony to feel personal and not detached. The Manor by Peter & Paul’s offered an amazing open space for this couple to create their perfect day. Olive Photography expertly captured the couple on their big day!

From the bride: We choose a string quartet version of Beyonce’s “Halo” for the Bridesmaids to walk to. I walked out to a string quartet version of Frankie Valli’s “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You”. Our first dance was The Spinners, “Could It Be I’m Falling In Love”.

From the couple: Wedding planning can be stressful! It’s not an exaggeration. We used excel spreadsheets to keep us organized throughout the entire process. They really helped us keep track of wedding gifts, thank you cards, food allergies etc. We used an event planner for the last half of the planning as it was getting to be a little much for us to handle by ourselves. That was great having her for the day of so that we could let her run the show and not worry about any little problems that came up!

Black and White Nordic Wedding at Devold Fabrikken

An ocean view setting, lush greenery, and a touch of DIY all came together to create Eivind and Live’s tropical wedding at Devold Fabrikken in Norway. Arriving by boat, the couple exchanged vows in an intimate setting atop a small pier. Michaela Klouda Photography perfectly captured the sweet couple as they explored the breathtaking surroundings.

From the couple: We wanted black and white striped tablecloths, but struggled to find ready made ones within budget. Therefore we ended up buying a large amount of fabric from IKEA instead, and the bride’s mother was kind enough to help with the sewing. We also wanted to have copper pots and vases for all the centre pieces. Some we bought at second hand shops, but most of them we borrowed from family and friends. We also made all the place cards ourselves, from store bought gift tags that we embossed with our own monogram, hand wrote all the names, and tied with black and white ribbons. As for the flower decorations, we managed to keep the costs down by picking buckets of big, green ferns fresh from the area. Again with a lot of help from family and friends – we really couldn’t have done any of this without them! Not sure this counts as DIY, but the the bride spent a lot of time on the Norwegian “Craigslist” chasing down a special bronze cutlery from Thailand. Just days before the wedding we were still sixteen pieces short, but surprisingly enough we found matching gold cutlery at the local flower shop!

Advice from the couple: If you’re a control freak, and you’re scared to delegate – Excel spreadsheets is your friend! Especially for those last few days just before the wedding. That way everyone knows the who, what, when and where of everything, and you get a chance to relax a bit (sort of). Also, if you need to prioritize, hiring a professional wedding photographer should definitely be on the top of your list. Our photographer, Michaela Klouda, did a tremendous job at capturing all those beautiful moments, many of which we didn’t even realize had taken place until we saw the photos!

Stunning Banff Elopement in the Tunnel Mountain Reservoir

January 8, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

Stunning-Banff-Elopement-in-the-Tunnel-Mountain-Reservoir-Tricia-Victoria-Photography-33

Eloping is the perfect opportunity to personalize every aspect of your wedding day, from what you wear to where you say “I do.” Kristyn and Joe had a short engagement (only two months!), but the small time frame didn’t keep them from planning a day around what was most important to them. Their Banff elopement took place in the absolutely breathtaking Tunnel Mountain Reservoir where Kristyn wore a demure redesign of her mother’s 1982 Alfred Angelo wedding gown. Tricia Victoria Photography captured the whole stunning shebang, including couple’s portraits that totally do the beauty of Banff justice!

The Couple:

Kristyn and Joe

The Wedding:

Tunnel Mountain Reservoir, Banff National Park, Alberta

My favourite moment was walking towards Joe and the reading of our vows. It was such an intimate and romantic setting and everything else around me seemed blurred. It was like living a dream and everything turned out perfectly. The wind even stopped and the sun came out to warm us for the ceremony.

For the elopement we wanted something not too traditional since we weren’t getting married in the traditional way. I got rid of the poofy sleeves and train on my mothers 33 year old dress and wore a flower crown since we got married outside just the two of us. The veil was a smaller piece from my mom’s as well.

Our photographer Tricia Victoria helped not only style the elopement but she did my hair, helped choose the flowers, had the vision for the grooms outfit, was set on a flower crown (we got two and meshed them together), helped me put on the dress, found the ceremony location, the list goes on. She has an amazing eye and her style of photography is incredible. I would recommend her for her knowledge and direction because she knows exactly what she is doing to get the best shot; so trust her!
