Nin & Mirela's Grouse Mountain Wedding

Heat Wave............"Pride weekend"................= A Beautiful wedding day!
Well Vancouver could of possibly been about 100 degrees that day. We caught up with Mirela and Nin at the Listel hotel on Robson St for our "getting ready" segment of photo coverage.
We got a little unexpected bonus of watching the parade from Mirela's room ,which was situated in a perfect spot overlooking Robson st. Between shots, we had the opportunity to see the VERY colorful floats go by.Mirela got her stunning dress at the bridal gallery. She looked so beautiful!Pamper me pretty did an awesome job with the hair and makeup.After about an hour or so, we met up with the bridal party and headed towards Coal Harbour for our next location shoot. From there we went to the new convention centre for a few more pix.The bridal party left us and went up to Grouse mountain to meet and greet the guests as Mirela,Nin and myself would be arriving soon after in a helicopter making our grand entrance.Boy! was it ever a grand entrance-just like a hollywood scene from a movie.
As we approached the mountain we could see all the guests waving and getting excited for our arrival. Within 20-30 min, the couple was on their way to tying the knot infront of approx 150+ guests.After the ceremony,we continued on with family and friend pictures and then sat down for the dinner reception. It was a fun filled eve with good food,good wine and lotsa dancing.Mirela and Nin were a delight to work with and had beaming smiles the entire day:)

Karen & Gordon's Wedding @ Cecil Green Park House Estate

It was a pleasure to be a part of Karen and Gordon's nuptuals a few weeks ago.
We met up with Karen and the girls at the Westin Bayshore anxiously waiting for Gordon to arrive. With a few coaxing words, we finally got him and the guys through the door to start their tea ceremony. Soon after we headed over to UBC to the Cecil Green Park House Estate to start the ceremony. It was a glorious sunny day with 150+ attending. The house was a great backdrop for numerous b&g and bridal party pix. The guys looked great in their Moores tuxedos and the girls shined with beauty wearing their dresses from Frocks. Karen's gown was a beautiful design from Blush bridal. We had a lot of fun! From there we headed to Coal Harbour for another picture session and then ended up back at the Westin for another tea ceremony followed by the reception in a beautiful ball room. All in all, it was a beautiful wedding for a very special couple:)
