Chic Black and White Wedding at The Stunning Three Feathers Terrace

Eight years in the making and forever to go. 2024 marked a huge step in Nina and Chris’ longtime relationship and we couldn’t have been happier for them and their families! Their wedding day represented the uniting of two incredibly supportive families whose love for Nina and Chris was so touching to document.

Nina and Chris’ story began when when Chris moved to Canada to begin his professional hockey career. Nina had no idea that say yes to ice cream with the newest player on her city’s hockey team would lead to a whirlwind of travel and adventure while Chris played hockey in three different countries and two continents! After years of dating long distance, the hockey off season in 2022 was one they never will forget. Chris proposed to Nina while on holiday in the Greek Islands.

Having their immediate family spread all over the U.S. and Canada, they decided that they would plan for a ‘destination wedding’ here in Ontario. They choose the private estate venue, Three Feathers Terrace and had their out of town guests all stay at Friday Harbour Resort. Their week-long celebration started with a mini vacay of golf and dining at Friday Harbour and ended with their celebratory black-tie wedding day at Three Feathers Terrace.

Nina had clear in her mind her wedding day vision. She enlisted the help of The Event Design Co. to execute her chic and modern black and white design. The focus was on making the day a true experience for their guests, including a sketch artist and live music during cocktail hour.

We were so honoured to photograph their wedding day as they celebrated with each other and their fam. The happy tears and joyful embraces made their modern wedding day unforgettable.

We can’t wait to see where the future takes the Martenets!! xo

Playful Pops of Colour for Couple's Chic Wedding at The Doctor's House

It’s hard to even know where to begin with Eliza and Grant and how much we enjoyed their wedding day at Kleinburg’s, The Doctor’s House. 100% relaxed, chic, true to their style and centred around having an incredible day with their families and friends, it was the dream day to photograph! Eliza and Grant first reached out to us in 2022 about their wedding day. They knew they wanted to host a day that showed their guests who had travelled from China, Hong Kong, British Columbia and all over Ontario, how much they were truly loved. Due to the fact that many had travelled from long distances, they decided to host all the events of their wedding day at The Doctor’s House.

We arrived just as Eliza was finishing up with hair and makeup and Grant was busily putting the finishing touches on some of the decor for their reception. Everyone was super chill-having enjoyed a relaxing start to the wedding morning. Grant and Eliza decided that they would like to start the day together with a first look (the cutest first look ever we might add) and go right into a tea ceremony hosted by Grant’s family. We loved that Eliza wore a traditional Korean dress, a Hanbok, to celebrate her family’s culture. After their tea ceremony, it was time to get ready for their wedding ceremony in The Doctor’s House iconic Chapel. Something that really stood out to us what their very heartfelt and personal vows to one another. They spoke to their commitment, love, what led them to their wedding day and their promises for the future. We were so honoured to be present for such meaningful vows!

Their being pronounced as husband and wife was sealed with a high five, kiss and celebratory champagne pour! After having photographs with their families and friends it was time relax and enjoy the evening! Although they both loved a very clean, light aesthetic, they also both loved the idea of incorporating colour into their day. The beautiful flower arrangements and playful touches of colour in their decor really spoke to their happy personalities.

Eliza changed into a cocktail dress that she made (!!!) for their first dance. It was the perfect dress to get the party started ;) After an incredible dinner, hilarious speeches and a beautiful sunset it was time to dance the night away!

We left Eliza and Grant’s wedding feeling so grateful for such a kind couple who made their day so personal. These are the memories we love :)
