This is a special wedding for us. We shot this on July 26th, our own 6 year wedding anniversary. We are blessed to be in a profession that reminds us throughout the year of the vows we made to each other. When we were contacted to photograph a wedding on our anniversary, we thought there’s no better way to spend our day, than recording the wedding of these two awesome people, Megan + Brenden.
Megan + Brenden came from Calgary, AB to enjoy the Summer sun and warmth of British Columbia’s wine country here in Kelowna. Their gorgeous ceremony was held at the scenic Tantalus Vineyard overlooking the Okanagan Lake. The sweet and simple ceremony was perfect for this sweet and loving pair. Watch for the whimsical pastel roses arranged by Megan’s Aunt who did a wonderful job incorporating elements important to Megan.
Portraits were taken at the Vineyard and the weather couldn’t have been better. With the skies clear we enjoyed walking among the rows of vines and in a field while soaking up the light and having plenty of laughs.
The reception was held at the wonderful Manteo Resort on the shore of the Okanagan Lake. The dinner was delicious, the speeches were touching, and we were able to sneak out at sunset for a few golden hour portraits of our couple. Look for the special Norwegian Cookie Cake paying homage to family heritage. The night continued with Airwaves Music providing the jams to keep the celebration going.
Congratulations to the sweetest couple; Megan + Brenden!
