James Bond theme grooms attire, Sparkly Kate Spade Keds and one of the most
beautiful wedding dresses that I have ever photographed are what this blog post
is all about! Ryan & Stephanie planned their beautiful wedding to take place
at Red Deer Lake Community Hall. And I will be honest when they first mentioned their
venue I assumed it was out of town as I had never heard of it. But nope it is just south
of the city close to Spruce Meadows. And right near the hall their is this cute little
vintage school house where we did a few photos as well. What I love about this venue is it
is nice and spacious and I adore the stage for the wedding party to sit on so the guests
get a good view for them and also the close proximity to the little school house and
the park are added bonuses for images. I started my day with the girls and this wedding
is my only wedding of the year with a second shooter and she started her day with the boys.
We had some beautiful weather for the day and I was even able to sneak them out during the
reception for a few photos just as the sun had peaked below some clouds.

Before I share some images from their day here are a few words from the Bride & Groom
How did you guys meet ?We met through some mutual friends- on Christmas Day actually! The Best Christmas Gift a girl could ask for I’d say!!Please share the proposal story with us?
Ryan took me to Newfoundland where his mom’s family is from to meet his extended family there. He took me on aday of sight seeing to many of beautiful places out there (It was my first time to the East Coast) We startedthe day at Cabot Tower followed by the beautiful drive to Cape Spear where the most eastern point in North America is.We then proceeded to Fort Amherst where he popped the question over- looking the beautiful Atlantic Ocean.It was the most perfect and simple moment I could have ever asked for. By the end of that trip I ordered my second…I guessnow third favourite piece of jewelry, a bracelet with the coordinates of Fort Amherst to always remember the spot!
Most memorable moment from your wedding day?
Bride: First Dance as husband and wife- the time that seemed like it was just us, was so special.Then we started to relax and enjoy the rest of the evening with our family and friends.
Groom: All of it! In the end I have my wife and that is all I could ask for! Tell me about the special aspects of your day that made it unique to you two?
– Ryan and I new we were meant to be when we found out we both had a love for James Bond!
– Be decisive in choosing! Once your have made a choice STOP LOOKING! The options of
Loved the groomsmens gifts that Ryan bought for his guys
So obsessed with Stephanie’s sparkly Kate Spade Wedding Shoes
Glam & Beyond doing her thing getting Stephanie read for her wedding day
I consider myself a wedding story teller so I always am looking for little things that help tell the story of the day.
How adorable is this shirt! Just love it
All emotional doing a first look with her dad. She had to look away to hold back the tears. 
Isn’t she just the cutest sticking her tongue out trying to get his ring on ha ha
Love this stylish wedding party! They were a blast to work with…almost too much fun at some points. I had to rein in the boys and their crazy antics ha ha
Just oozing with cuteness. I had the bridemaids all position their bouquets together and the flower girl ran in and lifted hers up with the others
When i have the right location I absolutely love shooting with this full sun bright light . So pretty
How about this old school house! The bridesmaids redid the chalkboards for them too. 
I snuck them away during the reception for some photos in the park and the light was so soft as the sun was setting behind some light clouds. 
This dress was made for twirling!
