Michelle+Curt

The first time they met was at a wedding when both moms were pregnant with both Curt and Michelle. They grew up worlds apart, Michelle in Egypt and Curt in Kelowna. But it was when Curt spotted a picture of Michelle up on his aunts fridge did he say "I'm going to marry that girl." They were 14. He wrote her an email and said "wouldn't it be weird if we got married?" They've been in each others lives ever since!

It was only fitting that they married by the Pyramid at Summerhill Winery, after all it is second only to the great pyramid of Egypt for precision and alignment. We had such a great day with the two of them and their family. The love, friendship and kindness was evident in not only the two of them, but in everyone around them.




Michelle was absolutely radiant!


Getting help from her bridesmaids


Michelle's mom put on her pearl necklace while her sister put in her pearl earrings. Unfortunately she dropped them down her dress and had to fish them back out!


Their "first look". We love this idea of the bride and groom meeting up prior to the ceremony for an intimate moment before heading down the aisle.




A stunning bridal portrait




Michelle is absolutely beautiful


And the handsome Curt










Love this moment between the two of them


We had to capture some fun shots of the two of them in the vineyard!






All the girls gathered together right before the ceremony. I love this shot Jon took of Michelle with her mom and sister


Curt's mom


Tim, Michelle's brother walked her down the aisle




Michelle and Curt married as the sun set behind the mountain. I love the sunshine beaming through their photographs.




Married!


Some more bride and groom shots before dinner




The Egyptian Princess... need I say more.


A toast at the parents table






We were truly honoured to be apart of your day. Thanks for being so much fun!
