Britt & Andrew Say I DO – Ottawa Wedding Photographers- Chateau Laurier

Welcome to Britt and Andrew’s Ottawa wedding photography blog. This downtown Ottawa wedding has everything to inspirer any bride planning a wedding in the nation’s capital. We were also teamed up with some pretty incredible Ottawa wedding vendors:

Stacey Price from Marry Me Productions, Erin from Full Bloom Floral Design  , the wonderful event team at the : Fairmont Chateau Laurier as well as Kimberley Dunn, an amazing singer and pianist.

I can describe this wedding in three words; elegance, timeless and breathtaking!!! Britt is wonderful, beautiful and sweet and Andrew’s  handsomeness, east coast charm and wit landed him the girl of his dreams. Together, they gave a memorable emotional wedding speech that brought the house down in laughter and joy. The day was perfect, their family and friends were wonderful and the vendors made this wedding top shelf. To Britt and Andrew, we wish you the best in your new lives together!

Krystal & Shawn’s Edwards Ontario Country Wedding

Krystal and Shawn have a beautiful dream property with horses and a riding arena in Edwards Ontario. When they started to plan the wedding, there was no question in their mind their home was going to be “the wedding venue”. We started the day at the bride and groom’s home with Shawn and his family. We then made our way to the parent’s newly renovated farm home 2 minutes from the couple’s property. The farm house provided the perfect  rustic style and blended magically with the theme of the wedding. The ceremony was held outdoors next to the couple’s riding arena. They even built their own wedding arch out of distressed wood. The hanging flowers were in vintage medicine bottles… wow, this couple is so detailed oriented, they bring a whole new meaning to DIY weddings. They even had lavender in paper cones for the guests to throw like confetti for their first walk down the aisle as husband and wife! What a unique idea that gave us  breathtaking photos.  The couple photos, family and wedding party was done in their hay field. The weather was beautiful and their friends and family provided the perfect atmosphere! Love was in the air! The bride looked stunning in her Enzoani designer dress from Baroness Bridal Boutique.  The groom looked equally charming sporting a cowboy hat for the couple’s session. The reception was held inside their riding arena. The decor included vintage typewriters , old rustic wood barrels, hay bales, antique tea cups and antique wagons. A perfect decor for a country chic outdoor wedding! Here is a look at some off the images of their wonderful day! To Krystal and Shawn: Congratulations and we wish you the best!

Christina+Jared – Royal Ottawa Golf Club Wedding, Ottawa & Gatineau Quebec

Christina & Jared are an exceptional couple. They are kind, beautiful and so considerate. Christina’s bubbly personality and beauty is what makes her so charming. We started the day with the groom’s session at their house, then, the bridal session was at her parents house surrounded by all her childhood memories. The ceremony was at the iconic Notre Dame Basilica downtown Ottawa. The ceremony was performed facing the front of the church and the guests were sitting around the couple.  It was so unique, different and personal, everyone was more involved in the ceremony. The family photos, wedding party and couple photos were done at the church and downtown Ottawa. We went to the National Art Gallery and to the Museum of History in Gatineau for more romantic photos of the couple. The reception was held at the Royal Ottawa Golf Club. A wonderful day for a beautiful couple! To Christina and Jared, we wish you the best in your new lives as husband and wife!

Fall Family Session – Orleans Cumberland Outdoor Photo Studio

Last call for outdoor fall photography! If you did not book yet, now is the time! Thank you to all the families that braved yesterdays cold weather. Yes, it happened, our first snow fall during our morning family sessions. We got wind gusts, hail, rain and snow. But the determination of our families made it possible for us to continue the photo session outdoors ( with many trips to our indoor studio to warm up). The convenience of having both studio within seconds is what makes outdoor sessions possible even in bad weather. Don’t forget to dress comfortably, in layers and to apply makeup with no shine ( a mat look is always best for photography). Here is a look at a beautiful fall family session at our outdoor studio in Cumberland Ottawa!

POTVIN & THOMPSON’S FAIRMONT MONTEBELLO WEDDING, QUEBEC

If you are planning a wedding at the  Fairmont Chateau Montebello , have a look at this wedding.!!! Annabelle  and Ben  got married at the gazebo on the East side of the Montebello grounds overlooking the Ottawa River. This was the perfect backdrop for a beautiful dream wedding.  Annabelle and Ben came all the way from Miami, Florida to get married at the famous  Chateau Montebello. We photographed the groom and his groomsmen first, followed by the bride and bridesmaids. The chateau offers a dramatic style of lighting that works perfectly with the photos we wanted to achieve. The guests made their way to the gazebo while Annabelle and her father, Denis, arrived in style with a horse and carriage. After the ceremony, the guests enjoyed cocktails while we did the family, wedding party and couple photos. The reception was in the Canadian room and, to the couple’s surprise, they were greeted by the wedding party holding hockey sticks above their heads (a tribute to all the NHL hockey players in the room). The live band was amazing and the speeches were heartfelt. A great wedding reception to a perfect wedding day! To Annabelle and Ben: Enjoy your new married life. We wish you all the happiness, health and success you deserve. It was an honour to be a part of your big day!

Christina & Daniel – Notre Dame Cathedral Basilica of Ottawa Wedding

Christina and Daniel got married last September at the famous Ottawa Landmark Notre Dame Basilica. What a beautiful day. We can say it was perfect. When we got to the Bernado’s home for the groom’s coverage, we got a warm welcome from mom, dad , family and friends. The house was photo ready already!!! Mom was serving all the special appetizers and treats she had spent hours making and the boys were having a blast.  We then made our way to the Timpson’s home for the bridal photos. Christina was beautiful in her Mori Lee wedding dress. The ambience in the house was amazing…All the family and friends were there to see her walk down the stairs…let’s just say the party had already started! The ceremony was held at the Notre dame Basilica and the family photos were done on the church grounds. We then took photos around the church,  National Art Gallery,  Chateau Laurier and the locks at the Rideau Canal ( A big thank you goes to the young man that took a polaroid snap of the couple and gave it to them as a souvenir, it made a great photo!!!) The bride, groom and wedding party were the best models!!! We had so much fun during the photo session, it was a blast! The reception was held at the Centurian Banquet Hall on Colonade Road in Ottawa. The evening was filled with love and laughter while the live music and the  MC offered amazing entertainment….To top it off, Elvis even showed up to give a 30 minute show! Just when we were  leaving, the buffet was served. I have never seen so much homemade goodies at a wedding before. Everything was so good! To Christina and Daniel: May your lives be filled with greatness, love, health and lot’s of babies!!! It was a great memorable wedding and a pleasure to be a part of it!
