I started out the day with Vivian and her bridesmaids… the sun was barely above the horizon when I arrived that morning, but things were already in full swing!
I love when my brides have more than one outfit… here are two of Vivian’s four amazing dresses
Meanwhile, my second photographer Karen Dyke was with Doug and his groomsmen
Doug arrived and was taunted a little by Vivian’s bridesmaids….
Vivian and Doug had two tea ceremonies… here’s number one
Off to the second ceremony
The ceremony was held at Shaughnessy Heights United… we quickly got Vivian changed in the daycare before the ceremony got underway
I always love the look grooms have on their face as their bride walks down the aisle… makes my heart squeeze every time
After the ceremony we headed out for portraits… first stop, the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver
Seriously? I don’t think Vivian could be any more stunning!
Next we headed over to the Richmond Speed Skating Oval
The reception was held at Kirin Seafood Restauarant in Richmond
Vivian and Doug – thank you for choosing me to be your wedding photographer!
