Romantic. Casual. Laughter. Rustic.
Katie and Christian’s wedding was all of this and more. In each image, you’ll be able to see just how much love there was at this wedding, not just between the bride and groom, but with the bridesmaids and just generally all around. This sweet, warm couple had a beautiful day and every image tells that love story, time and again.
- Bride and Groom: Katie and Christian
- Wedding Date: June 10th
- Location: Ceremony @McKenzie Town Church / Reception @the Sheraton, in Calgary, Canada
- Wedding Theme: Pink and Brown Rustic Summer Warmth
“My favorite memory from the day was when we were standing up at the altar,” said Katie. “It was the happiest I had ever been in my whole life because I was standing up there with my best friend and the love of my life… and the best part of the reception was all the speeches. They make you laugh, cry, and truey make you realized how special your love is and how special the people in your life are.”
Enjoy Katie and Christian’s Real Wedding Pictures:
Katie’ smiling face says it all: This is the happiest day of her life (and maybe the most fun, too!).
This bride’s bouquet is perfect for summer or spring: pink gerber daisies, white roses, purple carnations, and green kermit mums. Love.
Nothing like a little pre-ceremony foosball to unwind before the big event!
Katie and Christian’s first kiss took place below a gorgeous stained glass window, which makes for a great shot. It’s also one of the most romantic wedding kisses we’ve ever seen!
Post-ceremony, the whole wedding party piled into the stretch limo and celebrated with some bubbly. You don’t always get to see shots from inside the limo, so this was a good call and a fun moment to remember.
This bird’s-eye shot of the bride and her bridesmaids is simply beautiful. It captures the detail of the girls’ dresses as well as the love, support, and happiness all around.
Smoking groom and groomsmen… we know smoking is totally bad for you, but there is something pretty hot about this picture, you gotta admit.
Katie opted for shots with each of her bridesmaids, but this talented photographer caught a sweet, goofy moment that is so much more special than a plain portrait.
Katie and Christian’s wedding photographer had a genuine eye for perspective. We love the blurry bridesmaids in the background and the gorgeous bouquet details up front.
We love this closeup of the newlyweds’ wedding bands. The shot is intimate and also adds nice detail to the wedding album.
It’s always lovely to get a shot of the bride with the groomsmen and vice versa. It’s a reminder that the wedding party is there for both sides of the couple.
Again, it’s great to get a pic with the groom and the girls. We love how the wedding photographer played with perspective in this real wedding picture.
Katie and Christian’s flower girl was oh-so-cute and super honored to be on rose petal duty for the big day.ured a classic sweetheart neckline, sweet flower detail at the waist and a super-trendy high-low skirt that showed off her wedding shoes.
This pretty seating chart echoed the couple’s pink and brown wedding colors and features cute photos from their engagement. So sweet and a fab way to remind your guests what this day is all about: love.
The bride chose drapery and lights for her reception decor, which adds drama and romance without being over the top.
During the toasts, the photographer caught some of Katie and Christian’s candid reactions. Again, unplanned, unposed shots like these move your album from ordinary to awesome. You can see how much fun they’re having here – no wonder this was Katie’s fave part of the reception – and kudos to an amazing photographer for capturing their happy spirits.
The candy buffet hinted at the couple’s pink and brown color theme without being over-the-top matchy. Also, we love the L-O-V-E dishes – so on trend and so pretty full of candy!
Haha – this wedding game was all about the groom figuring out which kiss was from his bride! Clearly he hasn’t found her yet. 🙂
Candids are always the best wedding photos, so if your photographer can capture any cute kiddos getting down to the beat, make sure they do it!
This fabulous picture of the entire wedding party is extra awesome thanks to the vintage backdrop of a wooden building and the simple but striking black umbrellas, which play nicely off the pink chiffon of the bridesmaids’ gowns.
This rustic backdrop provides such a lovely contrast from the couple’s formal wear. We love the romance of this pose and the nice silhouette of the couple. This man is obviously bananas about his blushing bride! Congrats to the happy couple and thanks for inspiring us with your love and super gorgeous wedding.
