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!

It really was love at first sight for both Kate and Ian. The speeches reveal so much about so many aspects of a couple- who they were, who they are apart and who they have become together. Kate and Ian are a dynamic, engaging, generous and super fun couple with families that match that description. She came originally from New Brunswick, and, as her sister noted…hearts are breaking there now that the much beloved Kate’s heart has been stolen…Ian is the dashing and charming queen’s grad that travelled in Tawain to teach and now has the priviledge of working alongside his sister and brother in a business that they are building together.

Both Kate and Ian were surrounded by over 200 of their closest friends and family…and I really mean it – this much loved couple had guests come from all over the globe and as close as New York and New Brunswick to be apart of celebrating this wonderful couple. Not to mention, Kate and her nurse work colleagues spent a full day making over 200 candy apple favors by hand…that’s friendship and then some! I mentioned in their engagement post that “the Burn’s” – (Ian’s family) used to live on my street in Manor Park …and so it was a quite a treat to see so many of my own lovely neighbors looking dashing and in attendance. At the end of the evening, I received the warmest thank you…to be added among their stellar groups of friends. My warmest congratulations to you both, it was a spectacular day and have a wonderful trip to Hawaii!
