Remember this relaxed and sunny engagement session on the Toronto islands? Sarah & Dave tied the knot in September at the beautiful Mike Weir Estate Winery. Their Mike Weir Winery wedding combined their fantasy of having a destination wedding in an Italian vineyard with the wish to have all their friends and family be a part of their important day. This was the first wedding ever held at the winery, and combined with decor & florals by Fresh Collaborative Events, Sarah and Dave’s vision was brought to life wonderfully.
As photographers, we don’t often get mentioned in speeches. I think mainly because the fruits of our labour aren’t seen until after the wedding. But at Sarah & Dave’s wedding, Dave mentioned a little moment that happened during their engagement/Document Love session that really stayed with me. I had asked them to express their love for each only by looking each other in the eye and gave them a minute or two to absorb that. Dave said at first it was a bit funny, but then as the moments wore on, he realized that they don’t do this enough: to slow down and just look each other in the eye or just really be in the moment.
So, thank you Sarah & Dave for inviting me into these moments on your wedding day. Here’s their story as seen through my lens.
