HEATHER WILKINSON [photographer] »

This adorable little family of three came all the way from Alberta to be married in front of (and party with) their closest friends and family in Fredericton a couple of weekends ago.  I instantly fell in love with their beautiful one year old daughter, Emma…. and loved watching them interact as a family.  There was an obvious adoration for each other, especially Ken for his two ladies.  One of my favourite elements from their wedding day was that, since Melissa is a teacher, they used a school bus to transport their wedding party around which I thought was really fun and creative.

Here’s a few images from their day….

‘Tis the season to have lots to blog and no time to do it!  But, I have set aside some time today to begin to catch up, so get excited because the blog floodgates are about to open! First up we have the super adorable Eric and Beth. I really didn’t know anything about Wisconsin at all, except that apparently cheese is a big deal there… so I wasn’t sure what to expect.  What I found in Hayward was a a cute little town with lakes, candy shops, and the most bait and tackle vendors I’ve ever seen.  We had fabulous weather, which made for an even better day for Eric & Beth’s super laid-back wedding.  The ceremony was at 11am and I’m not lying when I say that everyone was ready by like 10am.  They were just so excited!  Eric, Beth and I spent 45 minutes or so roaming around downtown Hayward just after their ceremony.  They were just too cute… off in their own little love bubble even though dozens of tourists were watching them at any given moment.  After we met up with their friends and family for some quick group portraits, we headed inside for one seriously delicious dinner…. pizza, salad and garlic bread.  I was just soooo happy =)  It suited them perfectly.

Thanks so much you guys for taking me all that way to be a part of your wedding!  Here’s a few favourites….

She was the younger sister of Andre’s hockey buddy.  During his speech, Annie’s brother told everyone that guys generally don’t let their sister date their hockey friends…. for good reasons.  But when it came to Andre, he didn’t feel the same way at all.  This seemed to be the common thread through everyone’s speeches… that Andre & Annie are both just truly kind, hardworking, fun people who have been good kids, good sibblings, and good friends.  From the little bit that I was able to get to know them that day, I would have to agree.  Their wedding day was relaxed, fun and beautiful and I enjoyed spending it with them and their friends and family.

Here’s a little overview of the day…
