Laura and Dan’s outdoor Ontario wedding was bold and vibrant. The couple decided to marry at Laura’s family’s cottage, which only added to the many special moments the couple had spent there prior to their wedding. Almost all of the decorations at the reception were DIY – the couple made the hand lettered chalk boards, confetti cones, table numbers, and candy bar. Laura even put her skills as a graphic designer to work by designing the wedding announcements and invitations. Magnolia Studios worked around the clock to capture every moment from Laura and Dan’s wedding on camera.

I love a Midsummer Night’s Dream and always loved the look of the fairies in that story. I wanted to feel like that, light as air.
The most memorable part of the day for us would have to have been our first looks. We snuck away, in the forest behind where the wedding was taking place. It felt like miles away despite being only a few minutes walk. It was just the four of us up there and was a wonderful moment to separate ourselves from all the hubbub of the wedding and just be with each other.

Our venue was my family cottage. My husband and I spent so many special moments up there throughout our relationship and when we got married it seemed to me like there would never be a better place. Now when we go and visit we are surrounded by memories of our wedding day.

I lo...
