Gil & Rozeela tied the knot last summer at Vancouver’s Stanley Park Pavilion. We’d shot there before and like the previous times the ceremony took place on the lawn outside. This was the first time we’d seen the alter positioned on the steps though and I have to say it was a much better setup in my mind!

The day began at the Westin Bayshore hotel in downtown Vancouver. The couple each had their own rooms and got ready there with the various members of the bridal party. It’s a really nice hotel if you haven’t been there before and well worth considering if you’re looking for a place to get ready on your wedding day!

After the ceremony we took the bridal party off for some photos in the immediate vicinity of the Pavilion. We didn’t have much time before the reception began but I think we did really well with the time we did have and arrived back in plenty of time for dinner and dancing.

Here are some of our favourite moments from the day…

Ryan & Lexa married last summer at the Arbutus Club in Vancouver. It was our first visit to that venue and we’d love to go back! The day began for us at the Westin Bayshore downtown for some getting ready shots with Lexa and her girlfriends.  Immediately after that we went outside to do the family pictures. Ryan joined us for that and we did a little ‘first look’ session since the alter wouldn’t be the first time they saw each other!

The weather was great and the ceremony on the Arbutus Club rooftop deck was fantastic. It was an intimate gathering of close friends and family and really set the tone for the rest of the evening. We had a little bit of time before the reception began so we took the couple to another rooftop area for a photo shoot in the gardens.

Here are a few shots from the day, let us know what you think!

Well, it didn’t seem like 5 minutes since we shot Paul and Jennifer’s engagement shoot in Deep Cove last September, but suddenly their big day had arrived and what a special one it was. The entire event was held at the Westin Bayshore in downtown Vancouver. The couple held the ceremony in the Marine Room before an intimate reception in one of the luxurious suites upstairs.

The weather held out for us although it was a little cold for the shots outside after the ceremony. Still, Paul and Jennifer were great sports and we ended up with some really beautiful photos…
