    Love is the answer
    At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?
    … I’ll tell you one thing, its always better when we’re together

    Better Together, Jack Johnson

    One week in Edmonton.  Rhiannon received her Bachelor of Commerce, Accounting, from the University of Alberta.  Paul received her hand in marriage.  Not too shabby!  Rhiannon + Paul’s wedding brought them back home from Hawaii, where Paul manages pumps for a local firm.

    When day to day life includes living near a beach in Hawaii, where hobbies are snorkeling, jet skiing and kayaking, not to mention hanging out with the dolphins in the early hours of the day, the wedding has to be a fairy tale really, doesn’t it?

    Rhiannon and Paul brought the beautiful weather of the South Pacific with them to Edmonton for their fairy tale wedding at the Hotel MacDonald.   The wedding car? A limo.  The reception?  Mayfair Golf & Country Club.  What really made this a fairy tale come true though was Rhiannon, looking like a Princess Bride, marrying her Prince Charming after a courtship that has taken them from Edmonton to Hawaii and back again.  Paul may be able to jump off high cliffs into the ocean without a blink, but the sight of his beautiful bride brought tears to his eyes.

    Edmonton’s hot dry heat was a bit of a change from the humidity of Hawaii, but everyone was incredible when it came to celebrating the bride & groom’s love of each other and the outdoors by shooting outside.  How incredible?  Ice creams all around (even for us!) after a day spent in the park.

    The Mayfair Golf & Country Club blossomed, the perfectly appointed buds providing beautiful detail and accents.  The wedding favours were adorable as well!

  • Anita + Jesse :: Trash and Trade (Part III of III)

    Words by Maureen Young

    Love, love, love how destination weddings = a day or two after for creatives with the newlyweds!  We had a blast with Anita + Jesse’s entourage (a.k.a members of the bridal party) as we went to Hard Rock Resort & Casino and the local market for days 1 & 2 of the creatives.  Our original plan for the market was put on hold by more thunderstorms but we found a luxe locale and spot of sunshine.

    Lifeguards warned us off the beach as thunderstorms were, yet again, approaching.  Much to  Jesse’s dismay neither of us were prepared to dive in after him  so he couldn’t play in the crashing waves.  Sorry Jesse, Rina’s had just 1 too many instances of losing her shorts in calmer waters!

    Day 2 we went to the local market with bodyguards Ray & Colin to keep the vendors at bay.  Anita got her groove on and danced in the streets, much to everyone’s delight as tourists and vendors who cheered from the stalls.  She also found a shawl in the same colour as the bridesmaids’ dresses and we all chipped in so she could have a souvenir of her Dominican wedding.

    Anita bought her dress in China and never had any intention of taking it home with her, even though her mother-in-law was quite keen for her to have it for the Edmonton reception (although we all joked it was for Jesse’s sister Marianne to have for her wedding day).  Instead, Anita wanted her dress to give someone else’s love story a stylish flourish who otherwise may not be able to afford it.  A pregnant vendor asked Anita for the dress as she was hoping to get married after the baby was born.  Anita was super happy that her dress would give another girl the opportunity to have a beautiful wedding and traded the dress from some jewellery and a sundress (well she couldn’t exactly walk around nude!)

    Thank you Anita + Jesse for having us out to your wonderful and crazy wedding.  Your friends and family were awesome and we got a chance to hang out with everyone, seeing some old pals and meeting some new friends. Your free spirited personalities go soooo well with us!

    Loved your Edmonton reception as well!

    Love. You. Always.
