\"Stunning-Saskatchewan-Wedding-at-Cedar-Lodge<\/p>\n

Sophia and Nathan had an ultimate garden wedding with breathtaking views of the water at Cedar Lodge<\/a> in Canada. Sunny bright florals and calming, muted natural elements offered a contrasting atmosphere for the romantic day. The bride wore an elegant and simple, top embroidered gown, which blew effortlessly in the wind. Wolf willow, rosemary, and green grasses were just some of the plants adding to the coziness of the day. Josh Dookhie<\/a> Photography<\/a> expertly photographed stunning moments of the couple at their lovely wedding!<\/p>\n

Cedar Lodge<\/a>, Saskatchewan, Canada<\/p>\n

The Inspiration:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We wanted our wedding to be an extension of us and the things we love and value. For both of us, the best and most beautiful things in our lives have always happened outdoors, and we wanted to include many elements that honoured our prairie home. We gathered wolf willow from our parents’ acreages, grew rosemary, planted flowers. As well, we wanted to invite our incredibly talented family and friends to contribute their unique gifts; ceremony benches, archway, soap favours, floral displays, backdrops–everyone offered so much of their time and creativity. I also happened to be managing a thrift shop that year, so we were not short of great finds there. In short, our decor theme was inspired by the wild prairies around us, the resourceful “we-can-definitely-do-this-<\/wbr>ourselves” creativity of our loved ones, and whatever treasures we could reuse around us. Natural, collective, thrifty. <\/em><\/p>\n

As far as our fashion choices went, I knew from the start that I wanted a dress that wasn’t completely white, and one that was so comfortably that I didn’t have to think about again after I put it on. As a wedding party, we wanted to keep things simple and classic, with lots of neutrals and pops of gentle peach and coral throughout.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Moments:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

I would have to say my favourite moment was the exchanging of our vows. With all of the busyness and stress of the million little details that inevitably make up the last days before the wedding, it was a happy surprise to find ourselves able to be fully present to the gift of that sacred moment, sharing our hopes for our future in the presence of the best family and friends. For Nate<\/span>, it was the part where we snuck away with our photographer after the reception to catch the sunset. We paused to take in the whirlwind of beautiful moments that was this day, with a perfect prairie sunset in the background, and were infinitely grateful.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Couple Recommends:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Our photographer was amazing. Not only did he make us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, he did an incredible job with our photos. Very professional, incredibly talented, and such a warm and friendly person to work with and spend our wedding day with. We couldn’t say enough positive things about all of our vendors, really. We highly recommend each and every one of them.<\/em><\/p>\n
