What a gorgeous day for a wedding and what a fantastic couple we had to photograph. Alessa and Anthony first met each other at the Maximo Park concert at Richards on Richards in Vancouver. Anthony who has traveled a lot and is originally from Ireland, the selection of Doolin’s Irish Pub as their first date was a good choice.
The ceremony was beautiful at St. Augustine’s Church. Their favourite memory from the wedding day was seeing each other all dressed up at the church for the first time. There was one unexpected moment for Alessa on the wedding day that happened when Anthony went in for a french kiss in the church! Alessa’s favourite colour is purple, {something I learned at their engagement shoot} and with the little touches of different shades of purple really brought everything together. I asked them to describe the day in three words and I love their answer, “Magical. Perfect. Unforgettable.”
I think the most important advice and something every bride and groom has to remember is what Alessa says, “Don’t sweat the small stuff!” Thank you to the bridal party and Alessa and Anthony for letting us be a part of your day. You both were so happy and I can’t wait to show you even more photos!!
Just a few touch-ups from Alessa’s girls before the ceremony starts.
Joanna got this great exit photo of Anthony and Alessa in the bubbles.
The gorgeous ladies on the right and a typical Saturday afternoon at the beach on the left.
Ahem, if you were in the area of Sunset Beach this day you would have seen a lot of glitter flying. I’m still finding it in my camera bag! But I do love the photo in the top right with just that touch of sparkle.
Alessa, you looked absolutely stunning.
You know I always like a good running photo!
This may be one of my fave photos, the beauty of the bridal party and Vancouver all in one!
There’s always time for a few candids!
When the sunshine is just in that perfect spot, we can get magical photos. LOVE it when that happens.
We also loved the vintage car. Gorg.
I loved the first dance tune choice. Lovesong by Adele.
Congratulations Alessa and Anthony! I wish you many, many years of happiness and a fantastic honeymoon in Nassau, Bahamas !
