I think 2018 was our biggest year ever on all fronts, both business and personal. We shot the weddings of the sweetest, kindest and funniest couples who we connected with so perfectly. It felt like we were photographing our friends’ weddings, so there were lots of tears (from Batoul) streaming down our faces throughout many first looks, ceremonies and speeches.
A Classy Orchard View Wedding | Laura + Renaud
Everything fell into place perfectly as Laura texted me pictures of her fun wedding prep details, including her gorgeous Badgley Mischka studded heels that she would be wearing throughout the day. She chose white, green, gold and lilac for her wedding colours, a perfect combination for a hot summer day. An all white, cream and pale green wedding bouquet created by her florist, Beyond the House, that combined roses and ranunculus must have been the highlight of her details! She went for my favourite garden-inspired bouquet style, which is what EVERY SINGLE BRIDE SHOULD DO (in my non-biased opinion haha). She looked like a dream in her intricately detailed mermaid wedding dress from Allure Bridal.
Orchard View Ottawa Wedding | Joan + Mikey
Mikey proposed to Joan last year in Paris during their European travels. And this past year over the summer at Orchard View in front of 100 of their closest friends and family members, they committed themselves to one another. Mikey vowed to keep dating Joan, to always listen to her and tell her about his day. Joan committed to a lifetime of happiness and adventure.
