I had the wonderful oppourtunity to work with Peter and Stephanie and their wonderful wedding planner Lynn Lee of Weddings Unveiled for their elegant Ottawa Wedding at the Britannia Yacht Club. There were so many more images I could share for this post, but tried to pare it down. The day started with Pete’s mom making a breakfast of Champions for the groom and his boys at her house, while the bride and her bridesmaids were getting hair and make-up done at their hotel suite with one of my favorite sylists, Lori Dyck from ShowPony Style on Site. With Chanel dressing her fingers and toes Stephanie was  beautiful in her Robert Bullock Wedding dress from Luxe Bridal, the couple came together on the Terrace of the Chateau Laurier for a first look.

From the Chateau Laurier we made our way to the Britannia Yacht Club for their beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony that was dressed in beautiful floral designs by Talisman Florists. The outdoor ceremony was performed by one of my favorite Ottawa Officiants, Lynn Langille, who always creates a truly personal ceremony for my couples and their guests.

The ceremony was followed by an intimate  wedding reception at the club where their closest family and friends came together to celebrate this exceptional couple. It was a fabulous day, right down to the speeches. And much fun was had at the photo booth…but that’s for another post…enjoy!

Jennifer and Jason met early in their university careers …she knew him for quite some time as “Mr. Creepy Stares”(someone was obviously smitten!). Through persistance Jason finally won Jennifer over and so began their long journey through med school, internships, residencies and all the time apart as each of them became doctors in their respective specializations. When we met, Jason was working in Texas and Jennifer was in Winnipeg. Ottawa was very special to both of them and where their lives together began so they chose Ottawa for their destination wedding and so lucky for me, they chose me as their wedding photographer.

With Jennifer and Jason’s discerning taste they chose Eighteen 18 restaurant in the Byward Market as their venue.  They wanted their guests to be treated to a private and intimate evening with atmosphere that was elegant,  glamourous and eclectic – and it was outstanding. The floral designs were created by Millstreet florists and the staff at eighteen pulled out all the stops. They even created custom mini beavertail doughnuts for the occasion – by special request from the bride. Anyone who has ever dined at eighteen knows that the entire menu is a foodie dream and I do believe that there was little on the menu that wasn’t served up beautiful this night for their private reception.

Jennifer was beautiful in her Elizabeth Filmore  crepe silk sheath gown (style – Simone) with a classic black organza sash and fun ruffled shoes by Steve Madden.

We started the day at the Chateau Laurier and this is how their wedding story unfolds in pictures…
