Geometric Wedding / Candlelit Elopement Wedding Inspiration

There was a full moon that day, and so the moon was a welcome addition to the photos!

The style of this shoot incorporates traditional opulent elegance mingled with clean geometric lines and shapes.
Elegant, but not ‘too much’. Modern, but still soft. A harmonious balance between the two usually quite opposite styles.

The floral arrangements are relaxed and organic, which juxtaposes nicely with the ornate antique details in the tablescape.

We also think it’s important to not upstage the beauty of the venue too much – important to find a good complimentary balance.

We hope this shoot inspires the romantic, traditionally-inclined yet relaxed couple!

A bit more info about the thought process behind this styled shoot:

We wanted to capture an intimate elopement that upholds traditional elegant opulence and at the same time infuses some fun and whimsy – all while keeping things minimal and timeless.

The soft muted pink & green palate with touches of deep berry and warm candlelight includes a mix of vintage and modern accents. We juxtaposed metallic finishes and geometric shapes with organically styled blooms and the natural beauty of this apple orchard. (Which also serves as a super fun place to visit for a date in the Fall! Mmm, I’m smelling the apple pies already…)

To cap things off perfectly, the full moon made a surprise appearance as the sun set for the ultimate romantic setting for a candlelit dusk reception!

P.S. We adoooore the groom’s beard. We thought it deserved an honourable mention.

These Palais Royale wedding photos are some of my faves from last Summer. It’s easy to get gorgeous wedding photography at Palais Royale since the surrounding waterfront and natural area is soooo purdy.

After a decade together (yup, you read that right) these high school sweethearts got hitched.

It was a blast photographing this totally fun, laid back wedding. There were many spontaneous outbursts of singing, dancing and tonnes of laughs.
Love that the groomsmen had hilarious superhero t-shirts on under their suits (of course we had to do a shot of them ‘flying’!).
And Paula was glowing with happiness from start to finish.

Paula and Kevin, congratulations again!

Fun little update: Paula & Kevin now have a little one! How exciting!
