Becky & Derek:: 'I Do.'

The wind was gale force outside. Sleet, at times, pelted the windows. Becky and her girls were getting ready at the Casablance Winery Inn in Grimsby, Ontario. Despite the weather outside, there was excitement and laughter. The saying goes that "rain brings good luck". If that holds true, Becky and Derek are in for a lifetime of it!

Flowers were embellished with my personal favourite, 'hens & chicks'...

Had many inquiries about where these photographs were taken in Puddicombe. We are inside the vintage train car behind the wine shop. One look through the windows and at the chandeliers...I knew we DEFINITELY had to go in!

I have little boys. I adore little boys. The ringbearer came stocked with Thomas trains and Cars toys. Love.

Recently, I asked Becky to take 3 words to describe how she felt about their wedding day and they chose: windy (haha!), fun and happy! Their thoughts now looking back, " it was such an amazing day - and it was so FUN!!!! Despite the crazy weather and the mishaps that happened, we just had a blast. Because we live here in BC we don't get to see the majority of the people there very much - it was so good to see everyone! Lots of people commented to us that night how much fun our wedding was and that really was our top priority when planning it - so it was a good feeling that we pulled it off."

Becky and Derek, you're wedding was absolutely beautiful. We braved the rain and wind and ended up with some amazing shots outside! Thanks to you both for an amazing time and friendship! Happy one month anniversary today! All the best always!

Capturing your spirit..
