Moments:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>There were so many special moments! I&rsquo;d have to say one of my favourite moments driving up to the Ciderhouse with<span class=\"il\">Kevin<\/span>. We were both so excited. I could see how beautiful everything looked all decorated, the flowers were overflowing and I felt like the moment I had been waiting for was here and it was perfect!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Couple Recommends:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Our photographer&nbsp;Jesse Holland&nbsp;was exceptional. She was integral in ensuring everything was going well throughout the day. She gave direction when it was needed and let moments happen organically as well. She has a knack for taking charge, climbing fences to get the perfect shot, wrangling relatives etc&hellip;. All without coming off as pushy or bossy. She gets stuff done while putting everyone at ease, that&rsquo;s not as easy. Another vendor that stood out to me was our florists from Fiddle Head Florals. To say that Alison and Kristen went above and beyond is an understatement. They had very little direction from me yet somehow exceeded my wildest expectations. Every bloom was meticulously arranged. All night long people were commenting on the arrangements (even the guys!). There were flowers everywhere you looked. It meant so much to me that I could book them and put all my trust in them, never once was I stressed out about the flowers. They both confidently executed their roles and I couldn&rsquo;t have been happier!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Wedding Team:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photography &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/jessehollandphoto.com\/\">Jesse Holland Photography<\/a><br>\nVenue &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/seacider.ca\/\">Sea Cider Farm and Ciderhouse<\/a><br>\nFloral Design &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiddleheadflorals.com\/\">Fiddlehead Florals<\/a><br>\nCatering &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trufflescatering.net\/\">Truffles Catering<\/a><br>\nCake &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ruthanddean.com\/cakes\/\">Ruth &amp; Dean<\/a><br>\nDJ &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DJSPEEDYSHOES\">DJ Speedyshoes<\/a><br>\nHair Styling &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/dmandcompany.ca\/\">DM &amp; Company<\/a><br>\nWedding Dress &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/thewhitepeony.com\/\">The White Peony<\/a><br>\nVeil &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jenniferleigh.com\/\">Jennifer Leigh<\/a><br>\nBridal Accessories&nbsp;&ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/littlehjewelry.com\/\">Little H Jewelry<\/a><br>\nBridesmaids&rsquo; Apparel &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blushvictoria.com\/\">Blush Bridal<\/a><br>\nBridesmaids&rsquo; Accessories &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pearlsofjoy.com\/\">Pearls of Joy<\/a><br>\nGroom&rsquo;s Apparel &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/samstailor.com\/\">Sam&rsquo;s Tailor<\/a><br>\nGroomsmen&rsquo;s Apparel &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/samstailor.com\/\">Sam&rsquo;s Tailor<\/a><br>\nRings &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tacori.com\/\">Tacori<\/a><br>\nRentals &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trenddecorevents.com\/\">Trend Decor<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Congrats to Alana and Kevin on their romantic waterfront wedding!
