A delicate blush and ivory color palette added the perfect touch of romance to Julia and Stephen’s British Columbia farm wedding. Van Loon Farms and its vast fields sit just beneath a magnificent range of mountains, providing an extraordinary backdrop for the couple’s outdoor ceremony. Jennifer Armstrong Photography so elegantly captured the natural beauty of the farm, along with the loveliest images of Julia and Stephen celebrating their first moments together as husband and wife.

The Couple:

Julia and Stephen

The Wedding:

Van Loon Farms, Pemberton, British Columbia

The Inspiration:

Rustic, classic, romantic, natural. The farm where we were got married was so beautiful with expansive fields, big bales of hay and old farm buildings set against the backdrop of mountains. We let it steal the show and did minimal decor including picking and arranging wild flowers. My lace, off-white dress reflected my classic style and the shades of blush in the bridesmaids’ dresses, groomsmen’s bow ties, and other details added a hint of romance.

The Moments:

Stephen: Our first dance. We were so worried we would be clumsy and awkward but when “What is Life” by George Harrison came on, we were so full of love (and just enough wine)it was the most natural thing we could be doing. It was very surprising. And beautiful.

Julia: The speeches because they were so heartfelt and filled with laughter. They really captured our friends and family’s love for us and our love for each other.

The Couple Recommends:

Our photographer, Jennifer, felt like a part of our family and made us all feel comfortable. I think our photos really reflect that. Marty and Andrea who opened up their beautiful farm and home to us made it a more beautiful day than we could have even imagined. Ola and Nicole at Flock Events, our day-of-cordinators, made everything seem easy and seamless. Lastly, our caterer John at Collective Kitchen perfectly understood our passion for delicious, local food and made a dinner that we’re all still talking about.
