I love when a wedding carries on in the most elegant of ways and then BAM -- a few fun, unique surprises pop up along the way!

It's not hard to see why the bride and groom chose Pender Island in British Columbia for their nuptials. If I found myself on a gorgeous island with a winery, I'm not sure I'd ever leave! Check...

I have an affinity for rooftop weddings. It's the blue skies, the top of the world views, the "you may now kiss the Bride" mingled with cityscapes that can take your breath way; all good. And all made even better when documented by Judy Pak. She has proven time and again her prowess with capturing the beauty of a New York affair. This beauty is no exception.
