Daumer and I attended
a wedding over the weekend of very close friends of ours. We have all been eagerly waiting for this
wedding and knew it would be a highlight of our summer.
The ceremony was
held on the top of Grouse Mountain with the reception at the Vancouver Club. It
was a very elegant day with a lot of personal touches that showcased Riley and
Sarah and their 8+ year relationship. The couple met in Ireland where Riley
moved from Vancouver to Dublin for school where he met Sarah. He convinced her
to leave her home town and move to Winnipeg for his work where they currently
live. They have promised us the will be back in Vancouver by next year!!
Sarah wanted the ceremony to be outdoorsy and elegant. from her bouquet of 'blushing brides flowers' to her bridesmaids in pink duponi silk dresses, moss covered cupcake table, crystal chandelier arbour, wooden benches and the groom and groomsmen in Morning Coats it all came together perfectly. Of course the most important part of the day....the bride. Sarah looked exquisite in her Vera Wang Luxe collection - Audry dress. With her hair in loose curls, single braid and lace veil she was stunning.

All of the guests were dressed to the nines. A few women did an outfit change after the ceremony however my sequin dress went perfectly from day to night. Everyone looked beautiful, one women wore a large purple hat (sorry I
don’t have a photo, she was fantastic).

The couple said “I do” then it was cocktails, cupcakes and back down the gondola for a private bus ride back to the city. The Vancouver Club was arranged beautifully
with pink roses, white hydrangeas and silver candelabras. After speeches,
dinner, dessert we proceeded downstairs to where a makeshift nightclub was ready to get
the party going.

They had their first dance as husband and wife and the night
took off. The Moet was flowing and the live band was fantastic, the dance floor
was overflowing all night.

Although the day went quick (as it always does) it was such a wonderful
day and I was so happy to be there to share it with them.
