Alix & Nick – September 7, 2009

Alix and Nick hired me from the States for their destination wedding in Vancouver and as they only arrived the day before we met for the very first time at their wedding. 
It was our pleasure to photograph their Orthodox wedding at St Sava’s on 63rd Ave. Rich in colour and tradition, it was amazing to be a part of. Here are a few of the elements of the ceremony.
The church…

The crowns…

Being led around the table three times…
Married!
Kissing the cross…
After the ceremony we headed to Queen Elizabeth Park for family photos and then some couple shots. It had poured with rain on Sunday but Vancouver put on it’s best weather for our visitors…

Alix and Nick joined the group of friends and relatives who had traveled here for the ceremony for a lunch reception at Seasons in the Park. I loved their cake topper…

And their favours – luggage tags!

The newlyweds were departing on an Alaskan Cruise for their honeymoon that afternoon. Here is their ship behind them at Canada Place…

It was our pleasure to meet you both.  Happy Cruising!
