your wedding blog by jen: Happiest Bride on the Block!!

Last summer I was invited by Amy with Best Day Ever Photography and Jenn with Faithful Bull Productions to participate in this amazing wedding giveaway they put together. Initially I had no idea how awesome this wedding would grow to become. It didn't take long to figure it out though, their excitement and passion was contagious. Within a month we had 25 vendors donating their time, services, goods and spaces to this lucky couple.
The ceremony took place at the Monastery in Mt. Adams. We were so fortunate to be able to get this venue because it is essentially abandoned aside from them doing some art installations. Which also meant it was a bare boned venue. The Monastery created a unique and breathtaking space to be married in.

All Occasions provided the oak garden chairs which looked perfect in the venue. Lucius Limited spent the entire day constructing the tree like arch. We wanted to keep the overall design inside the Monastery simple and natural. The Monastery was so beautiful inside and we really wanted to showcase the architecture of the building.

The reception took place at Longworth's, just down the hill from the ceremony. All of the guests were able to walk right down to the venue.

We transformed the upstairs including the patio of Longworth's. It was a labour of love but it was so worth it in the end. The vineyard chairs were gorgeous on the patio and helped tie together the ceremony and reception.
