A Knockout Wedding

While editing Harold and Heather’s wedding pictures, I found my playlist filled with classic 80′s hair bands. This couple proved themselves to be very rock and roll and were not afraid to take full advantage of their wedding day and have fun with the shoot. Because Harold is big into the wrestling scene, their wedding, held at the Prince George Hotel, was filled with professional wrestlers from throughout the maritimes which made for a very interesting and enthusiastic guest list. This passion for the sport also allowed us to take some fun and different shots, from the beach and city streets to eventually, a boxing ring at Palooka’s Boxing Club where heather left Harold’s head spinning. To top off such an amazing day spent with the couple, the bride chose not to have bridesmaids. Instead, her entourage consisted of her two boys, who were just as willing to have fun with the camera. This made the “bride getting ready” shots untraditional, fun and touching! Congratulations to our rock and roll couple, Harold and Heather. It was a blast to work with them and their amazing family!

Minutes before Heather and Harold’s ceremony, another bride (with her mom) showed up to the wrong wedding … I’m pretty sure they found their way, albeit a few minutes late.

A big thanks to Chez van Straaten for her attention to detail relaxed coordination of the day’s events. Thankfully she never had to wrestle anyone.
