I already loved this wedding as I was driving onto the property in Whonnock, a hobby farm where Margo and her 2 sisters grew up. Margo's mother Janet had been very busy, arranging beautiful pots of flowers all over the place, decorating the garden arbour for the ceremony, tending to the gardens that spread all over. Margo's sister, and bridesmaid, Amy was the florist. I only wish I could link to her website but it's not her actual occupation... can you believe it? These were some of the most amazing floral arrangements I've ever seen... she made the bouquets, the centerpieces... wow. Even cooler is that the hydrangeas and some really chic spiky plant in Margo's bouquet was pulled from the garden. And this thing was HUGE... 'makes your arm muscles defined as you hold it!' Amy told me! There was homemade jam (in 3 different flavours!) and many, many little personal touches by family and friends. Thanks M&R, for including me in your lovely wedding day... no bears, no poison ivy, good times :)
Love seeing my work on display... so cool!
Engaged on the West Coast Trail... out came the hiking boots for a few minutes of fun :)
Janet, and her brothers... I just love the laughter in this photo...
I just love this series of images - a moment between Margo and her Mom
Margo and Ryan danced to a beautiful live recording of Pearl Jam's 'Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town'... one of my favourite songs!
