Junie + Nick // American Creek Lodge Autumn Wedding, Hope, BC
Junie and I spent the entire week leading up to her wedding checking the weather. The morning of, it was downpouring, but the hour by hour reports looked somewhat hopeful that we might get some breaks and be able to host her and Nick’s wedding ceremony on the deck of American Creek Lodge. As Junie and Nick got ready, we got closer to the deadline for making a decision for where to set up. Seeing that Junie was clearly in distress about making the decision, I stepped in and told her to take the risk for the outdoor ceremony. The view was worth getting wet for. Not long after she agreed to set up the ceremony outside, the clouds parted and a giant rainbow stretched across the sky. It was only the beginning to an epic wedding day.
Though we had to pull out some umbrellas for a few minutes during the ceremony (and it even started to snow briefly at one point!), the rest of the day was dry and gorgeous. Junie and Nick said their ‘I dos’ and danced under the stars. Junie’s show stopping dress made everyone swoon, but it was the little tuxedo vest she made for their dog, Paddington, that truly stole everyone’s hearts. Honestly, I may begin to limit my services to dog friendly venues only because weddings are 100x better with a dog present. Paddington roamed around all day and got his fill of treats (there was even a treat station just for him at the reception!).
The weather may have been fickle, but this wedding day could not have been more beautiful. Congratulations, Junie and Nick!
