Tag: ‘a modern proposal’
So, we’re going back to the past summer for this shoot that I did for the Ramada Kingsway in Edmonton for their ad in Weddings in Alberta. I’d never been in the Ramada in Edmonton and I was surprised at how big the ballroom was and how pretty it could be decorated. I really loved the aqua, grey and yellow theme with the white accents with linens and the centrepiece from Special Event Rentals. We called in Edmonton Wedding Planner Julianne Cragg of A Modern Proposal Event Planning to help complete the tables with some favours and table numbers she had on hand that went perfect with the colour scheme. There were lots of pretty wedding details to photograph… and then came the food!!
The food looked GOOD but it TASTED even better! Of course we got to sample everything after it was photographed and it was delicious. The Ramada can handle large weddings (up to 700 people i Think) in their spacious ballroom and it can also do smaller weddings as well and makes for a great wedding venue not far out of downtown Edmonton.

This whole shoot centered around the dress… the fabulous charcoal grey dress I found on eBay that I HAD to have for a photo shoot. Once we had the dress, the beautiful table featuring shades of grey and cream just fell together. Although, last minute, we had to change our location and I decided the super-industrial metal siding at Superstore was just the perfect backdrop for this set up adding another layer of metallic grey to the setting. I think it was quite the interesting sight for the people off to do their grocery shopping to see this gorgeous tablescape set up in the parking lot.
This vision of grey loveliness was excuted by Edmonton Wedding Planner Julianne Cragg of A Modern Proposal Event Planning. The gorgeous linens are from Elegant Touches (boy, they do have amazing options for table linens!) as well as the place settings. The stationary was a template purchased from Etsy and the amazing bouquet, boutonniere (with pheasant feathers!!) and centrepiece are from Akiko Floral Artistry.
Our bride’s gorgeous earrings are from BHLDN and her hair flowers and necklaces are from Claire’s. The groom fabulous tie is from Burberry. Our bride’s hair and make-up was styled by Jenn Waterfield.

It seems like forever ago since Robyn & Tom’s wedding at the end of August. I’ve been saving this gem of a wedding, and well, I just couldn’t wait any longer! It’s not that often (at all???) that you get to see a wedding that took place on an airplane. Yup! That’s right! Their ceremony was ON AN AIRPLANE!! Robyn and Tom are darn cool people, so it makes sense that they’d have a super cool wedding that was partially planned by my friend Juli at A Modern Proposal. Ok, are you ready for the awesomeness?
I loved Robyn’s yellow pendant.
The airplane hankie was a gift from her grandmother nd was just the perfect touch for the wedding theme!
Tom had fantastic airplane cuff links!
The girls got a little silly.
Just so you know… all of these shoes were Robyn’s…
Pretty dress, but it put up a good fight when it came to putting it on… probably should have taken the hanger out 
Robyn was so expressive!!
Love this getting ready shot!
SHe might have been a little nervous…

Deanne and Steve’s wedding was my last official wedding of the season in September and it was spectacular! I’ve always been a sucker for guys in kilts, and boy was I not disappointed! Deanne was also pretty darned amazing in a gorgeous Pronovias dress (and it had straps! I hope dresses with straps are the next big thing for wedding wear) and she was sporting half an ocean worth of pearls – so very glamourous! Went so very well with the gorgeous bouquet from Marlow & Richards.
We left the Hotel MacDonald to begin the processional, complete with a rockin’ bagpiper, to parade through downtown to the Citadel Theatre for the wedding ceremony. I was joined by the very awesome Ryan Kelly from Ryan + Beth Photographers to help me document this fabulous day (Thanks Ryan, you rule!!). After the ceremony, we shot photos with the family near the waterfall downstairs at the theatre before heading off to Churchill Square and to my favourite spot near 95 St to shoot photos with the wedding party before returning back to the hotel to just shoot Steve and Deanne together. After the photos were done, we wandered in to the gorgeously decorated reception at the Empire Ballroom (overseen by Juli of A Modern Proposal and linens from Special Event Rentals) and enjoyed a magnificent 5 course meal and an entertaining round of speeches before the party got started for the night. My favourite part of the night was Steve’s twist on the removal of the garter… he was wearing it while Deanne got to take it off him! I love a good twist on a tradition!
It was a rocking good time and I’m so happy we got to be there to capture it all! Congratulations Steve and Deanne!

Last Saturday (July 31) I joined Lindsay at Sutton Place Hotel where she was getting ready with her girls in anticipation of her fabulous wedding day. Trish joined the boys at Lindsay and Cory’s home before we all got together for the ceremony at Convocation Hall. Before we got to the ceremony, of course, I had lots of fun photographing the details, like Lindsay’s beautiful dress and her awesome silver sequined Pumas that she wore under her dress.
The stage was set with a gorgeous backdrop from A Chair to Remember (which also showed up at the reception, looking gorgeous, along with fabulous table linens and chair covers) and beautiful flowers from The Wild Orchid.
After the ceremony, we took the family photos by the Arts building before heading off with the wedding party to Chintz and Co. At first we planned to just shoot outside with the awesome green walls, but a little bit of sweet-talking (by Trish, of course) found us shooting inside the store, surrounded by fabulous decor!
Afterwards, we headed over to Sutton Place for the reception that was absolutely spectacular and expertly co-ordinated by Juli from A Modern Proposal.
It was a beautiful wedding with two wonderful people and I’m so happy I was lucky enough to capture it!
