Shawna & Scott | Kirkland House Wedding

I met with Shawna and Scott almost a year ago for their engagement session on Granville Island and this past year just flew by! Gary and I were excited to be part of their big day at the Kirkland House in Ladner. Outdoor ceremonies are so fun to photograph and the Kirkland House is a beautiful venue for it!

Shawna and Scott met at Douglas College where they first spent time together practicing how to tape up ankles...apparently Shawna did a better job. The only reason I say that is because they are a bit competitive with each other:)

I met up with the girls at the Coast Tsawwassen Inn while they got ready and waited for the school bus to take them to the ceremony. Did I mention that Shawna and Scott are both teachers?! Here are some pictures from their big day...enjoy!

{Often couples are unsure of how to incorporate their loved ones that are no longer here on Earth. In Scott's family, the butterfly reminds them of a loved one that had passed away. You can see the butterfly incorporated into their bouquets. Also, as Shawna and Scott walked down the aisle at the end of the ceremony, a butterfly flew alongside them!}

{After taking photos at the Kirkland House, we went to Deas Island for a few more. It was still super hot and sunny but we found a few shady spots!}

{And then it was off to the East Delta Hall for the reception!}

Congratulations Shawna and Scott!! All the best to you as you start a new school year and this new adventure as husband and wife!
