Wedding At Chateau Le Jardin | Felisha and Howard

At Felisha and Howard’s wedding at Chateau Le Jardin back in May, Howard’s best man recounted the story of Howard’s first trip to Yellowknife to visit Felisha. Howard lived in Atlanta at the time so to get to Yellowknife, he would have to take a plane, then train. Then finally a bus ride. That’s when his best man knew that Howard was serious with Felisha. She could be The One.

Throughout all the speeches from their families and friends that night of their wedding reception, Felisha and Howard held hands listening. They would exchange glances and smile at each other every now and then. After spending their entire relationship apart in two separate countries, Felisha and Howard were finally going to be together.

Both Felisha and Howard are devout followers of The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints. It was important for them to follow their traditions. I was unable to document their sealing ceremony as only their parents and select members of their Church were invited to witness it. Myself and the rest of their wedding guests waited outside the temple for Felisha and Howard. I could sense a strong energy of anticipation among their guests as a lot of them have not seen Felisha since she and her family moved to Yellowknife. When they eventually emerged from the temple, everyone applauded and marvelled at how beautiful Felisha looked in her wedding dress and how handsome Howard was in his grey suit. They looked stunning!

The Toronto Temple has an amazing architecture and has covered areas that is really useful for portraits. If the sun is harsh and is right on top of your head like what we had on their wedding day, having a covered area was helpful in getting great looking family portraits done quickly. The temple also has well maintained gardens and orchards which made great backdrops for romantic portraits as well.

Thinking back about that day, their wedding reception at Chateau Le Jardin was my favourite portion of my coverage with them. I love the songs that their DJ played! I didn`t know I dig reggae music until that night. Everyone had a great time on the dance floor, and when everyone was having fun, there were more moments for me to photograph!

Here are a few photos from Felisha and Howard`s wedding at Chateau Le Jardin.
