Georgina & Andrew’s summer wedding at Ottawa’s Billings Estate, National Historic Site, was one of the most thoughtfully personalized weddings we’ve had the pleasure the be a part of. It seemed like every piece and part had a story or a reason and as a result, they had a wedding that truly represented their life together. It’s hard to list all the little things but in the photos below, you’ll see Gin & Tonics served in science beakers, the bride’s immediate family all wearing their Fluevog shoes, the groomsmen wearing adult light-up sneakers, a Chinese tea ceremony that also includes the bride’s British heritage, Asian fusion food, and literally so many things to entertain all the little ones who were invited to this all-age affair.

Wedding at Ottawa's Experimental Farm
Ottawa may get some flack for being a boring city, but it also has a lot of perks! I wonder how many other cities you can hold a wedding quite central to the city but have that wedding hosted in a barn? Ottawa’s experimental farm/arboretum area is a hot spot for weddings and couples but until this wedding, we hadn’t had the pleasure to capture a wedding inside the Agriculture & Food museum. They had perfect fall weather and with the help of wedding planning company, Bourbon & Bloom, a perfect fall wedding.
Social Restaurant Wedding Reception
Last February, we had the opportunity to be a part of Danielle & Kyle’s wedding reception at Social. They had gotten married out of town and so they had a cocktail reception for their friends & family here in Ottawa. It was the perfect place for an evening of hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, speeches & celebrating.
