Confederation Park ~ Executive Royal Inn Wedding

August 28th, 2009 by Tricia B

Nicole and Ryan were married August 15, 2009 in Confederation Park in Calgary. Although the morning was chilly and overcast, by the ceremony time the sun had come out and the day warmed up nicely. The reception was held at the Executive Royal Inn with all the details being organized by the event planner Sarah Kisman. Here’s a sneak peak of Nicole and Ryan’s images from their day….

Calgary Zoo wedding

August 13th, 2009 by Tricia B

Jessica and Nick were married on August 1st at the Calgary Zoo. The ceremony took place in a garden near the Conservatory and the reception was held in the Safari Lodge. Both wedding parties dressed for the wedding at the Hotel Arts, and the Bride and Groom would spend their first night as a married couple in one of the gorgeous suites.

This was a very intimate wedding of family and friends witnessing Nick and Jessica’s commitment to each other. Family from Ontario were present and had to opportunity to learn a line dance to celebrate Calgary’s western flair. Ray the DJ played Michael Jackson’s Thriller as the bride and groom provided a show of the original dance moves from the music video. Weddings like this make me so glad to be a Calgary wedding photographer. Here is a look at some of my favorite images of their day.
