Wedding details

" Our wedding was truly a "Father of the Bride" experience, with my mom and dad dedicating the year leading up to it to transform our home into my dream wedding venue. They painted the exterior of the house, tended to the yard, grew hand-cut flowers in our desired colour palate, and even cleared out all the furniture inside to host the reception. Surrounded by our loved ones and the memories of my childhood, the day was filled with deep meaning and intimacy.

The wedding design beautifully blended romance and nostalgia, perfectly complementing the intimate setting of my childhood home. It was incredibly personal, with a middle school friend providing all the local florals, the DJ being someone who went to prom with my sister, and my high school band teacher playing saxophone in the trio during cocktail hour. The abundance of personal touches added layers of meaning, reflecting our style and the deep connections we share with our loved ones.

Our wedding stationery, with its romantic and timeless design, perfectly set the tone for the celebration. A stunning watercolour of the lake and vineyard view, vintage stamps, elegant calligraphy, and gold wax seals created an atmosphere of nostalgia. The welcome itinerary captured the excitement. I wanted our wedding weekend to give our guests the full Okanagan experience. We hosted a long table rehearsal dinner under the stars, a lively speakeasy welcome party at Crown and Thieves Winery, and a farewell pool party at the house on Sunday. By stretching the celebrations over the weekend, we had time to mingle with everyone and savour each moment.

The decor embraced a timeless elegance with a vintage-inspired touch, balancing classic and fresh elements. Every detail was thoughtfully chosen to enhance the natural beauty of the surrounding lake and vineyard. The floral arrangements featured soft pastels and delicate blooms like roses, ranunculus, feverfew, and cosmos, arranged in a natural, slightly whimsical style. A palette of blush, peach, and soft pastel tones, accented with hints of ivory and gold, added a touch of luxury to the overall aesthetic, making the day as beautiful as it was meaningful."
