The Last Wedding of the Season…

I truly couldn’t have had a better last wedding of the season than Gillian and Jason’s. They were married on October 22nd – on again yet another fabulous Fall day in Nova Scotia!  Gillian had all her bridesmaids around her helping her get her beautiful Anjolique wedding dress on. She borrowed a blue ring from her cousin Karen who is more like a sister to her than a cousin.  Jason’s daughter Abby was the most adorable flowergirl and the flowers from Rosebowl were stunning as the Fall accent for Gillian and her bridesmaids!  The limo arrived on time and we were off to the most quaint, hidden away yet gorgeous church near Shubenacadie with a long driveway lined with the tallest trees you’ve ever seen.

As the years move on, I realize more and more that although family will always hold the #1 spot in my heart, that friends are simply irreplaceable. When Jason and Gillian made their thank you speeches to their family & friends, Jason made the most poetic statement I’ve ever heard in my entire life about how his friends would always be there to support him.  Suffice it to say it certainly moved me and many others in the room to tears when his best men all helped lift him to stand to kiss his new bride.

Gillian and Jason are both very lucky to have one another – they joked and laughed all day long surrounded by the best of friends of family.  It was absolutely my pleasure and honour to photograph their wedding day - I wish them all the best that life can bring!
