Whitney and Matt had a fabulous at-home wedding on Whitney's parents' property in Maple Ridge. A lot of planning and preparation went into the day and I think Whitney and her Mom could now write a best selling book on event planning. Matt and Whitney's Dad were the home handymen who build the room that housed the reception, the bar and the signage, amongst other things, and together with last minute helpers it was a great family contribution.
Here are some of the details of the wedding.
The invitations....
The dress...or one of them - Whitney wore two.
The signs....
Here's some shots of Whitney getting ready....
Here's Matt seeing his lovely bride for the first time.....
After the ceremony afternoon tea was served in the garden.
Whitney's Mom had been collecting tea sets and crockery for a couple of years and had 200 settings....
Even the sugar cubes were hand-decorated!
Next we went down the road a bit to some nearby barns. It was hot hot HOT that day so it was a good thing the girls had parasols. The colours looked awesome too!
Back at the reception to an awesome catered dinner and some swing dancing. Lots more to come, but for now I'll leave you with a few more details of the day.....
Cupcakes....
And place setting cards....
Congratulations Whitney and Matt! We enjoyed meeting you and hope you are having a fabulous time in Alaska!
