The Wedding Day

Chariti and Matt, what more can I say about these two incredibly sweet kind and caring humans. These two powered through everything to get to this wedding day, they were determined to tie the knot this day. As of just a few day’s before the wedding, they didn’t even have a reception location lined up!

Covid really threw a few curve balls at Chariti and Matt, but I loved the resiliency that they had and honestly the wedding day was intimate and charming. It was a hot June date, the botanic gardens were in full bloom, we stopped for ice cream as a relief from the heat! And we enjoyed an outdoor reception, shoe game, dancing, cutting of the Cinnabon cake, and a few drive by visits from friends in keeping with some social distancing. So that everyone was safe and happy. Just what we needed for a botanic garden wedding in Edmonton.
