A Sainte-Famille Wines Ltd Wedding

June 3, 2020

Another one from the archives, and one I’ve been meaning to share for some time now. A lovely day spent in the Windsor and Falmouth area of Nova Scotia, following country roads along the Avon River to Sainte-Famille Wines. This would mark my first visit to the property and I hope it won’t be my last - work your way through the vineyard to the top of the property and you’re rewarded with a view of the Avon River itself and the patchwork of fields that hug it’s banks. It’s a fantastic wedding venue for an outdoor ceremony and a pavilion reception.

Many thanks to the owners of The Clockmaker’s Inn in Windsor, Nova Scotia. A last minute change in the weather meant that we were in desperate need of some sheltered spots for formal photos. They were more than happy to accommodate the group and the covered porch was a lifesaver.

Sullivan's Pond Wedding

April 6, 2020

An early morning start at Spirit Spa in the heart of Halifax, followed by a first look along the Trans Canada Trail in the Woodside Area Regional Park (a great set of trails overlooking the Halifax Harbour!), followed by a beautiful wedding ceremony in a gazebo at Sullivan’s Pond, followed by a stroll along the edge of the Dartmouth Commons (a big thank-you to the kind individual who left a chair out on the sidewalk - it was perfect), followed by a visit to Yeah Yeahs Pizza (no excuses if you haven’t tried it - they’re still up and running and offering pickup in the midst of all this quarantine craziness!), followed by a nearby backyard wedding reception. This was the perfect October day - sunshine, little wind, warm temperatures, fall foliage and a crisp, cool evening. Focus on the moments. Focus on the small things. Celebrate and have fun.

Thank you, friends.

Winter Wedding at Herring Cove

March 31, 2020

My first wedding of 2020 - held on the 1st of January! A small elopement in the North End of Halifax, followed by formal photos along the trails of Sir Sandford Fleming Park and the Herring Cove Provincial Park Reserve. For those who aren’t aware of its existence, the trails are located just outside of the village of Herring Cove, Nova Scotia. They are a must. Do visit when you can.

We may not have had the snow that we wanted, BUT I do want to highlight one important thing about this time of year - there are still some fantastically rich colours that exist in the midst of our winter months. AND you’re always able to inject your own. I feel that these wedding photos serve as the perfect example of that. From the rich greens, reds and orange tones of Sir Sandford Fleming Park to the warm tones of the granite and the cool tones of the waves at the Reserve. Lets not forget about the colours found within the floral arrangements, that fantastic suit and those amazing nails.

Stay safe and stay healthy everyone! I’ll do my best to keep up with the regular blog updates.
