When two of the sweetest people ask you if you’ll photograph their wedding day, you say yes!
You might remember these two from their at-home & neighbourhood engagement session – it’s been so great spending time with them!
Megan & Aaron’s special day was held in Kleinberg at the Doctor’s House.
A Doctor’s House wedding is quite unique to other wedding venues offered in Toronto/the GTA. There’s a fairytale quality to the picturesque grounds – a long, lush, landscaped garden, a quaint wood chapel lit purely with candlelight, a cobblestone courtyard cocktail hour area… and the reception space is lovely too – updated with lots of natural light coming through the large windows.
Needless to say I was excited to photograph this day!
You may remember these two from their at-home engagement session!
Their wedding was timeless and romantic with a perfectly balanced mix of traditional elegance and chic boho flair.
Some fun highlights to watch out for:
– The most epic bouquet toss catch
– A sweet father moment peeking at his daughter as a bride
– Kids being adorable
– Tonnes of full-on heart happy smiles & laughs
Flawless planning & coordination by Designed Dream, stunning flowers (as always) by Quill & Oak.
Here are some photos from the day! (It was so hard cutting out so many great moments to fit into this post, but I’m always happy to share a full gallery if anyone asks! Just email me! info@olivephotography.ca)
Be sure to catch more from the couple themselves at the bottom of the post!!
Here are some thoughts from the couple that were written as they anticipated their day:
What is your wedding theme / style / colour palette? Why did you choose this?
Boho chic, lots of floral / greenery, rose taupe. We chose this because we wanted to break from the traditional wedding style – so not us.
What words best describe your wedding?
modern, romantic
What have you been looking forward to most about your wedding day?
Walking down the aisle with my dad and seeing Aaron’s reaction (I think he’s going to cry; he doesn’t haha) (Update: He did!)
Venue: What made this venue the one for you?
We wanted something that didn’t have the look and feel of a traditional wedding hall, but would accommodate our guest count.
Photographer: How did you know you had found the right photographer?
You’re brilliant at what you do and so down to earth. Once we saw our friend’s wedding photos that you took, we knew we wanted to talk to you. But once we met you, we knew you’d be our girl!
Any words of advice for couples planning their wedding?
Enjoy every moment of the planning process, regardless of how stressful it might be. The time you spend planning for your wedding is just as special as the big day itself.
