Kelowna Wedding Album: Chantel & Josh

© Wedded Bliss Photography

Chantel and Josh's Wedding at Cedar Creek Estate Winery and Manteo Resort was a dream wedding for us. With the ceremony being earlier in the day, we had so much time to do photos that our wonderful bride and groom treated us to lunch on the beautiful patio at Cedar Creek! Then to top off the night, the reception at Manteo, which was catered to by the hotels' Wild Apple Restaurant, was probably the best meal I've had at a reception. Well done chef!

Congratulations Josh and Chantel. You are a beautiful couple through and through!

Sweet little Jorja....slept like an angel for her session! Watch for a session coming soon where I got to photograph her again in amongst the apple blossoms and I got to meet her two older sisters too :)

Kelowna Engagement Session: Travis & Erin

Erin & Travis's Kelowna Engagement Session and Wedding may be getting the long distance award this year. Working currently in England, Erin first flew home to Alberta before coming to the Okanagan for their engagement session. Wanting a destination wedding located between where all their families live (Maple Ridge & Calgary), Kelowna was a natural choice. We are super excited to be photographing their Wedding at The Harvest Golf Club in September.

Kelowna Engagement Session: Jen & Kyle

Jen, originally from Kelowna, met Kyle while in Victoria, and they've been there since. Coming home was a natural choice for their Wedding and we're looking forward to photographing them at the lovely venue they picked out- Gellatly Nut Farm in West Kelowna.

We're also super excited for the family connection at the Wedding....we photographed Jen's brothers Wedding back in 2010. It will be fabulous to see Erin & Justin again!

As a personal note to this story-Jen was very apprehensive about the Engagement Session. She felt she didn't photograph well and had never had her photo taken professionally. Not only do I love Engagement Session so that I begin connecting with my clients before their Wedding day and get them to know them better (and they get to know Wedded Bliss Photography) but I then get comments like this after they see their images for the first time:

"Well Renee, I think you shocked me into silence. We look fantastic..  I
couldn't be happier.  I can't wait for the disc so that I can use some of
the images on the website and facebook :)!

Thanks so much.  You have completely changed my outlook on getting pictures
taken."

Cheers,
Jen

I love my job :)
