What a gorgeous, glamorous, romantic, emotional and sweaty wedding this was! On one of the hottest days of the year (40+!) Abbey and Roland tied on the knot on Wolfe Island, with their reception hosted at Abbey's family home. It sure was an adventure, with ferry rides, speedboat rides, horse-drawn carriage rides and the party of the century, all whilst being surrounded by beautiful lake front scenery. We love that even after so many years of filming weddings, we get to shoot in places that we might never known about, or visited before. What an experience this was.

Abbey and Roland are high school sweethearts. After Roland plucked up the courage to ask for Abbey's number while she was working at Milestones, they began their global journey together. Just like their wedding, their story is one of adventure as well. From high school, to university, Carolina, Sweden and Colorado (Roland is a professional Hockey player), they have faced many challenges, but the strength of their love conquered all odds.  

We journeyed to Wolfe Island on the afternoon before their wedding to film the Rehearsal Dinner as well as an adventure and portrait session with Abbey and Roland. Being able to spend some time with a couple before the wedding really helps us to learn more about each individual as well as to understand the dynamics between family and friends. We also think the footage we're able to capture adds so much to the feel of the film, by showing a little life outside the wedding day. It helps to add personality and depth to the story. 

We also had the opportunity to spend additional time with Courtney (Courtney Elizabeth Events) and  Reid (of Will Reid photography) which helped us to build a super collaborative and creative partnership. We began Abbey and Roland's portrait session under some willow tress by the waterfront before jumping into some vintage speedboats for a little fun. When we returned dinner was ready and guests made their way onto the dock where they could enjoy good conversation, some speeches, tasty food and a stunning sunset. 

The wedding day began at two separate Air Bnb's where Abbey and Roland had lots of space to enjoy a relaxing and fun-filled morning with their respective bridal parties. Once ready, we headed to the first look location (a Friend's private property) and placed Roland on a large rock slab next to the lake. We love first looks, and Abbey and Roland's was especially touching. There were a few tears (happy ones, of course!) and beautiful moments that we were able to capture. 

The ceremony was conducted at Sacred Heart of Mary church, a familiar location for Abbey's family. They exchanged their personal vows in front of their friends and family, before being whisked away on a cinderella-esque horse drawn carriage back to the family property, a stunning venue perched on lake Ontario. 

After cocktails on the lawn and some energetic entrances it was time for speeches where we heard more about Abbey and Roland's story as well as some insightful anecdotes from friends. As the sun went down, Reid and I took them to the dock for a sunset portrait session. It was quiet, peaceful and a great opportunity for Abbey and Roland to relax in each others arms to the sound of the waves, after such a busy and exciting day. 

The evening ended with their first dance and parent dances, after which the dance floor opened to a crowd of party-ready guests. Ambush Army kept everyone on the dance floor late into their night with some wonderful played live music. It really was an epic party and one so so much fun to film! As we already said, this was a hot one. We've never sweated so much in our lives! We returned to our hotel absolutely exhausted, but with a big grin on our faces, knowing that we'd just captured one amazing wedding.

Catholic weddings are all about one tradition or another and feature a complex rite of steps leading up to the ceremony. Anything religion-based can be complicated to someone who isn’t familiar with that particular religion. However, to a practicing Catholic, what may seem complex to some is a rite of passage to them, and the perfect way to begin their lives as a married couple.

When you are raised, or even become a Catholic later on in life, you already know that it is steeped in tradition, complete with rites that help reinforce the believer’s faith. Everything at Mass follows very particular steps, always in a certain order and carried out in a meticulous, memorable way.

Catholic weddings are some of the most beautifully performed ceremonies that you’ll ever find. And if you’re so inclined to hold the ceremony at your favorite church or cathedral, then chances are that the environment will perfectly match the sentiment.

There are so many venue options when it comes to modern weddings. Lofts and rooftops are popular choices for this wedding style, but we like the idea of mixing it up a little by exchanging your vows at a museum, distillery or even a nightclub.

Bold signage is everything at a modern wedding—the larger, the better!

The modern wedding style is typically very clean and sleek with a minimal color palette and some metallic details. Wedding attire is sophisticated and chic and the florals are often monochromatic or greenery-heavy. Think bold lines or geometric designs when it comes to the overall décor details 

A modern wedding style is refined and simple, but daring. It's typically a formal vibe and we see a lot of white and black with modern weddings, but also bold colors like teal, eggplant and fuschia. The décor often features florals like calla lilies or dahlias, as well as ghost chairs, Edison bulbs, neon signs and greenery walls. The fashion is a big component of modern weddings—we love a fearless colored suit or backless sheath gown.

A summer wedding typically has at least one element of the day that's outside. Make sure you have shaded options that allow guests to avoid the sun. We love the idea of handing out parasols, fans or sunglasses as wedding favors so guests can use them during the day.

Think fresh, light and airy when it comes to food and drinks and even colors.

Summer weddings are those held in the months of June, July and August. This is considered "wedding season" and is one of the most popular times to get married. Some wedding styles we often see in summer include boho, rustic, casual, nautical and tropical weddings.

Because summer is widely considered "wedding season," you'll see higher prices on venues and vendors between Memorial Day and Labor Day so keep that in mind when figuring out your budget. There's good reason so many couples choose to get married in the summer. Inclement weather is not nearly as much of a concern, outdoor ceremonies are much easier to plan and, of course, there's an endless variety of bright blooms to include in your day!
