Jenny and Darren’s good friends, Mitch and Emma (who happen to be Vancouver photographers) took a few photos that captured the essence of Jenny and Darren’s wedding ceremony perfectly.  Mitch and Emma are newlyweds themselves and are the sweetest couple you’ll ever meet.  You can check out a few more of the beautiful photos they took on Saturday here and Jenny and Darren’s engagement shots here.  Enjoy!

Jenny and Darren’s Amazing Wedding Weekend

We spent the last few days in Banff National Park for my sister, Jenny and new brother-in-law, Darren’s wedding.  It’s hard to believe how quickly the day came and went!  It feels like just yesterday my mom and I were visiting Jenny in Vancouver to choose our dresses or preparing for her wedding shower in August.  Jenny and Darren got married at the Juniper Hotel in Banff, a place that is very special to our family.  The entire day was fun, light hearted and beautiful.  Their wedding was a true representation of their love for each other and their family and friends.  Everything, from the ceremony to the speeches spoke to how wonderful and loved Jenny and Darren are.  The day unravelled seamlessly and I felt blessed to be Jenny’s sister and honoured to be a part of their special day.  We all had such an amazing time!

I planned to take lots of pictures throughout the weekend but unfortunately, Ben got sick with a stuffed up nose, a cough and a fever a few hours after we arrived so instead, I spent all of my spare time taking care of a sick little boy.  Although he was feeling poorly on Saturday, Ben still carried out his duties as ring bearer and walked down the aisle with his little hand in mine.  He even got a few dances in before heading off to bed.  As Jenny and Darren shared their first dance as husband and wife, I rocked Ben in the library across the hall from the reception, his big brown eyes fixed on mine the entire time.  I thought about how Boris and I have evolved and grown in the last six years of our marriage.  We bought our home together, have built a stronger relationship, brought our beautiful son into the world and are excitedly awaiting baby number two.  My wish for Jenny and Darren is that they find happiness, balance and adventure and that one day, they get to experience how wonderful it is to hold their own child in their arms.  We love you Jenny and Darren!  We know you’ll have an amazing life together.

Jenny's Wedding Shower

This past weekend my sister, Jenny was in town to celebrate her upcoming wedding.  She had a small, intimate wedding shower on Saturday followed by her stagette.  Despite Jenny and Darren’s short visit, we had the opportunity to spend lots of time together.  The next time they’re in town (well...in Banff to be exact), they’ll be walking down the aisle!  

Wedding Dress Shopping

Last Tuesday, Jenny tried on wedding dresses at the bridal boutique she works at.  She looked amazing in everything but the dress she chose is simply stunning and 100% her style.  Here are a few pictures I took that evening (minus the dress she chose.  We wouldn’t want to ruin the surprise).  If you’re interested in the details of the dresses, you can check out her blog post about choosing a wedding dress here.
