Intimate West Coast Wedding

November 10, 2014 | Junebug Weddings

intimate west coast wedding

Brandy and Mitchell’s intimate West Coast wedding was bursting with tender moments between the couple and their closest loved ones. The first look, brilliantly captured by Jesse Holland Photography, absolutely melted our hearts. The lush greenery around Brentwood Bay Resort & Spa framed the portraits and ceremony images so perfectly. The bride’s fresh ivory bouquet pairs impeccably with the venue’s setting.

The Couple: Brandy and Mitchell

The Wedding: Brentwood Bay Resort & Spa, Victoria, Canada

The Inspiration: “We wanted our wedding to be intimate with close friends and family. We wanted to put a fresh spin on a classic wedding by infusing a few pops of colour into the details, through ferns and other foliage that are found in abundance on the west coast. There were high end finishes throughout, and the details remained simple but extremely elegant. By creating an intimate dinner party atmosphere where guests were able to mingle and enjoy fine dining. The energy of the event carried on late into the evening with a photobooth, some late night treats, and dancing.

The Couple Recommends: “All of our vendors were exceptional! Barb from French Kiss was outstanding in helping our wedding vision come to life. She helped at every step of the giving ideas and removing any stress that we had. She executed everything beautifully on our wedding day which allowed us to have a stress free wedding and truly enjoy our day! Our photographer Jesse captured countless great photos. She was so easy to work with and she made the photos feel and look so natural. Not to mention she has a great sense of humor which really made us feel comfortable with her. Lastly, our venue was remarkable. The venue is so gorgeous, located in a perfect setting with ocean views and beautiful landscaping. On top of this the service that they provided was exceptional.

The Moments: “Of all the incredible moments of the day, from our first look to saying our vows, we shared a special private moment immediately after our ceremony. We were so overcome with joy and emotion that we basically collapsed into each others’ arms and laughed, cried, and held each other.

The Couple Recommends: “We loved our photographers and cinematographers. Joan and Jon (BellowBlue) – we loved how comfortable they made us feel. It didn’t feel like we were in front of the camera at all. Their creative photos for us were incredible and we’ll be happy to look back at them even years from now. Jason and Copper Clover – they also had a great way of making us comfortable and allowing us to smile and laugh as we normally would. They were all professional and worked seamlessly in through the entire days’ events and were not obtrusive.
