One of my more memorable weddings from last year definitely was Christina and Wahlid's vineyard party. Taking place at Chateau des Charmes in Niagara on the Lake, their outdoor ceremony and tent reception was truly beautiful. So beautiful, it was featured on Vineyard Bride a few weeks ago.
Thanks for having me be a part of your special day Christina and Wahlid! Congrats to you two!!

Collaborating on styled shoots is such a treat....Creative juices flowing, meeting other vendors in the industry, and getting a chance to work with the people we admire but don't always have a chance to work with.
Last spring, I was asked by Danielle from Shaw Events to come on board with her, Kayla from Kayla Yestel Photography, and Lauren from Flourish Calligraphy, to create a modern, more minimalistic approach to a wedding. A few weeks ago, this beautiful shoot was featured on Canada's own, JoyWed.
You can see the full feature here, or continue on to see some of my favourite images.

One of my last wedding's of 2016 was a truly beautiful way to end off my year. The candlelight, the handwritten cards by each place setting, and the love between these two was magical. Every little detail was beautiful....Olivia and her family did so much on their own to make this wedding so personal and it was evident in all the little and big things.
Thanks for having me be a part of your wedding day Olivia and Matt! Congrats to you guys!

Reception Venue: The Shaw Festival Theatre in Niagara on the Lake
Last spring, the Ancaster Mill opened up their latest addition to the property, the Chapel. And honestly, I was so excited when I first met Jennifer and John after they had just booked that space for their ceremony location. It is literally breathtaking! Combine that with the talent of Nikki Mills Photography, and BAM--- it makes for one very memorable day!
Big open blooms, a soft palette and smiles all around, whats not to love about this couple or their big day;)
Congrats again to Jennifer and John--thanks for being the sweetest couple to work with!!
Soooo, this wedding is a little more of a personal one for me. Last October, my brother and sister in law "tied the knot" in Niagara. What a day---Doing double duty of being sister-of-the-groom and Wedding florist EXTRAORDINAIRE was a little crazy, but I had some wonderful behind the scenes helpers to pull it all off. I might be a little biased, but it might have been my favourite from 2016;)
To get to the point, Im just going to let the photos from Hamstra Photography speak for the day itself.
Congrats to the happy couple, Justin + Dorelie!! Love you guys!
Reception Location: The Courthouse in Niagara on the Lake
