So I mentioned in my previous post that the Bridal Boudoir was unlike any show that I participated in. There was so much beauty and inspiration it is going to take a few posts to get it all out. Among one of my favorite vendors was Fleuriste Notre-Dame de Grace. Amazing artistry and detail in the presentation of their “Alice in Wonderland” concept booth to inspire anyone looking to create an outdoor floralscape (did I make that up?) for a garden inspired wedding…I will say no more…because this one…speaks for itself.

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!

As I launch the new brand for Melanie Rebane Photography at the Ottawa Wedding Show in January 2012, I couldn’t think of a more fitting gift for my clients to compliment the look, feel and style of what my photography represents. Stylish detailing, personal touches and couture style come together  to create a truly unique and bespoke clutch handbag that is designed to be perfectly coordinated with your engagement or boudoir photos. Each of my 2012 clients will receive one of these beautiful bespoke handbags as a gift with purchase for both my new boudoir or 2012 wedding bookings at the show.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In partnership with the amazing talent at ANGEE W, we are creating some beautiful pieces that not only show off their beautiful design work, but your elegant boudoir or engagement photos. Come see our samples in person at the Ottawa wedding show on January 7th and 8th, 2012. I am located at both #306 – I will look forward to meeting you!

Sarah and Steve were referred by their wedding planner Allison Turner of Live Love Plan – they were planning a chic modern tent wedding in a charming vintage style at a beautiful venue in Beckwith Ontario, called Stonefields Heritage Farm. Sarah and Steve are heaps of fun and they are equally rivalled by the wonderful clan of folks that surround them. Much like they are, the feel of the wedding day was unfussed with a laid back pace that allowed the large wedding party to spend time being together as the wonderful groups of friends that they are while also having time to squish cheeks with their beautiful baby daughter Olivia. Surrounded by the love of their parents, friends and family and with a little Barry White in the Grooms speech – it was a truly amazing day to be a part of. It was a honor for me to document the day…

Special thanks to Allison Turner of Live Love Plan for being such an amazing wedding planner to work with and to the lovely ladies at Sparrow Floral Design who blew me away with their talent! And always thanks to Stephanie and Steve the hosts at Stonefields Heritage Farm, they are always gracious, welcoming and an absolute pleasure to work with. Special thanks also to the lovely Anna Epp for assisting and being flawless!
