When Morgan & Richard began planning their wedding, the vision for their day revolved around one common, warm and fuzzy, cuddly feeling. A cozy cabin in the mountains. A crackling fireplace to keep them warm. Sparkling white hillsides and glowing candles to light their way. It sounds a bit like a fairy-tale dream, but in fact, this was Morgan & Richard’s wintery, white wedding. And we had the distinct honour of photographing this dream-like scene as it revealed itself to us.
Morgan & Richard were married at the Delta Sherwood Inn, near Port Carling, Ontario. The day started with friends and family gathering for a pick up game on the pond out back which included several professional NHL players.
Then off to the main room of the Inn, with a fireplace blazing at the end of an aisle that Morgan was soon to walk down. Crystal clear hurricane vases filled with white sand and cream colored candles lined the aisle, with hundreds of creamy rose petals sprinkled across the length of it.
Morgan was absolutely beautiful in a strapless white gown, with a cathedral length train and a bouquet of whites - white tulips and white lilies and white feathers. Simply beautiful. In fact the entire ceremony was beautiful and from the look upon their guest’s faces, it was a moment they had all been eagerly awaiting for some time.
But now… now it was time to party! And party they did. If a white winter wedding in the mountains was the couple’s first vision, their second must have been the dance floor because that is where the majority of their friends and family members remained – for the rest of the evening. In fact, we are pretty sure Morgan’s dad got the party started as he shimmied down the aisle wearing his wintery fur-lined trooper hat.
To say this was a wild group is putting it mildly. But with a guest list that included several high profile names, an all-night dance party was practically a guarantee. And so it was, on a beautiful winter evening, Morgan & Richard’s closest friends and family members danced the night away in a beautiful snow-capped mountain side cabin.
Morgan & Richard – it was an honour and a privilege to witness this momentous occasion. Thank you for letting us be a part of your winter wonderland wedding!
