Timeless Wedding at Saskatoon Farm
This timeless wedding at Saskatoon Farm is the perfect blend of elegance and romance.
The Tea Ceremony
Christine and Michael’s timeless wedding at Saskatoon Farm this past summer was the perfect blend of elegant and romantic. The day started off with a Chinese tea ceremony to show appreciation to their families while also honouring their Chinese culture.
Christine Getting Ready
Following the tea ceremony, Christine and Michael separated to get ready for their first look and portraits. For her second look, Christine wore a beautiful, elegant dress from Love Note Bride. Christine got ready with her mom and maid of honour. One of my favourite moments was looking over to see her bridesmaids peeking into the room and getting emotional when they saw how beautiful Christine looked.
First Look and Portraits at Saskatoon Farm
Christine and Michael shared a somewhat private first look (their wedding party couldn’t help but look on from afar) Michael had changed into a classic black suit and bow tie, which looked incredibly chic with a single calla lily as his boutonniere. Christine’s bouquet of calla lilies beautifully complemented Michael’s boutonniere. Christine’s two tiered blusher veil added an extra level of romance to their portraits. If you know me, I love a good veil moment.
Wedding Party
Christine’s bridesmaids wore beautiful butter yellow dresses from Park and Fifth. Michael’s wedding party looked incredibly chic in black. I absolutely loved including the parasols for the group and bridesmaids portraits. One of Christine’s requests were elegant, editorial portraits. As a result, I leaned into staggered Vogue style portraits.
Timeless Wedding Ceremony at Saskatoon Farm
The ceremony space had a gorgeous set up. White bows adorned the chairs in the aisle, while stunning white floral arrangements in urns on plinths served as the focal point of the space. Christine honoured her late father’s memory by reserving a chair in the front row. It was a hot, sunny August day. Parasols were provided to keep guests cool and in the shade during the ceremony. Most importantly, the ceremony was officiated by one of Christine’s relatives which added a personal element to their day.
Reception In the Greenhouse
The greenhouse was transformed into a beautiful reception space. Round tables filled the space with stunning floral arrangements on each table. In lieu of table numbers, each table was named after a destination where Christine and Michael had travelled. Saskatoon berry jam was placed at each setting as a favour for guests to take home. One of my favourite things about Saskatoon Farm are the cats that are roaming the property and how they weren’t afraid to cozy up next to guests during cocktail hour.
After Christine and Michael’s grand entrance, they jumped right into their beautifully choreographed first dance. After dinner, we stepped out for some sunset portraits. Once the formalities of the evening wrapped up, Christine changed into a third look for the cake cut – an elegant corset dress with a chiffon scarf.
