Real Wedding | Chateau de Challain, France | Paris Wedding Photographer David Bacher

Joe Milton — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 07:49:22 +0000

Wedding Photographer: David Bacher, Paris, France Wedding Photographer
Ceremony and Reception Location: Chateau de Challain
Wedding Planner and Chateau Owner: Cynthia Nicholson
Wedding Date: September 10, 2011
Client Names: Pure and Leo

Real Wedding Description
Pure and Leo, originally from China, but now living in Switzerland, decided to have their destination wedding at the fairytale Chateau de Challain, located about 4 hours away from Paris near the city of Angers. This was my third wedding at Challain and it is honestly the most beautiful wedding location that I know. Arriving through the chateau’s main entry gate is an awe inspiring experience as one is confronted with the towering ornate pillars and exquisitely maintained French gardens. I began photographing Pure and her bridesmaids while they were getting ready in one of the enormous mahogany walled bedrooms downstairs. Guests then slowly moved to the romantic outdoor ceremony location which consisted of a decorated gazebo and beautiful flower bouquets. Leo waited at the gazebo as Pure inched her way out of the chateau, down the steps and across the small path toward him. Her veil must have measured 10 feet in length. Following the rather brief but very intimate ceremony, guests congratulated the newlyweds with champagne. I then spent a half an hour taking some portraits of the couple both inside and outside of the chateau. Dinner, dancing and the wedding cake presentation concluded the day’s events.

Real Wedding | Alameda Casa Rosa | Florianopolis, Brazil Wedding Photographer Fabricio Sousa

Joe Milton — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 06:49:09 +0000

Wedding Photographer: Fabricio Sousa, Florianopolis, Brazil Wedding Photographer
Ceremony and Reception Location: Alameda Casa Rosa
Decoration: Mila from For de Liz
Wedding Date: December 22, 2011
Client Names: Maica and Cristiano

Real Wedding Description
The Lutheran ceremony and party happened in a beautiful house between the woods, one of the most beautiful places here in Florianopolis, on the way to Lagoa da Conceição. The decoration was impeccable as always and very well illuminated. In the beginning, Maica and Cristiano were a little bit shy, and didn’t want to do the pre-wedding shots, but ended up having a great time. The wedding day was full of expectations, especially with the recent news of Maica’s pregnancy.

The wedding of Samit & Taran was an amazing affair set in the stunning surrounding area of Udaipur, the City of lakes. Flying from London in the UK to Mumbai India and then on to Udaipur. The celebrations were set over 5 days and boy did they party. From UK Rap artists to Bollywood stars to Indian cricketers, this wedding had everything. The five day celebrations was very much spread around the various palaces of Udaipur culminating in the wedding day being staged at The Lela Palace. It was a dream wedding to shoot and one that I would love to repeat. Fingers crossed we will get the chance to shoot another destination wedding in India later in 2012.

Joe Milton — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 05:39:49 +0000

Wedding Photographer: Haley & Michael Shandro, Edmonton Wedding Photographer
Ceremony Location: Robertson-Wesley United Church
Florist: All About Flowers
Portrait Location: Shaw Conference Centre and Matrix Hotel
Wedding Date: November 26, 2011
Client Names: Justin & Jeff

Real Wedding Description
There is one word that can describe Justin & Jeff: adorable. We feel like old friends when we hang out with them. They were both full of nervous energy on their wedding day, and it was beautiful to behold.

I’ll let them do the talking about their joy on their wedding day: ““We take exception to the fact that this day is all about us. Unlike countless other gay men, we have been graced by the unconditional love, support and acceptance of you, our friends and family. As individuals, you encouraged us to be true to ourselves and stood by us through this sometimes painful journey of self-discovery. You insisted that we learn to love ourselves. You have continued to nourish the loving relationship we have formed with enthusiastic acceptance. Without your love and support, we would not be half the men we are today. And so, you see, this day is actually all about you.
Love, Justin and Jeffrey”

We’ve worked with several same-sex couples and are proud to work in a country that accepts marriage of all people in love.
- Haley & Michael Shandro.

Wedding Date: December 30, 2011
Client Names: Becky & Colin

Real Wedding Description
When we had to schedule our pre-wedding consultation around Colin and Becky’s Dodgeball League, I knew right away that they were a bride and groom I would LOVE to shoot!

I was right. They were an absolute blast to be with on their wedding day! We had two hours set aside for photos between the ceremony and reception and we made full use of them by going to Vancouver’s Olympic Village, Hotel Georgia’s 1927 Lounge and then wandered around Gastown for a bit before taking a bit of a break to freshen up and thaw out. We had a lot of laughs as we dodged raindrops and gusts of wind. They knew that having a winter wedding in Vancouver would be iffy and they just went for it. I’m so glad they did.

The wedding reception was held at Heritage Hall in Vancouver and looked absolutely amazing thanks to the planning and styling team of Eventful Planners and Niche Event Stylists. The damask chair covers and feather & crystal centerpieces made the room look stunning and were enjoyed by the guests as I heard lots of ‘oohs and ahhs’ as guests entered the hall. The candy buffet was a great treat for guests of all ages. I made sure to sneak a piece of that delicious red velvet cake before leaving for the night!.

Real Wedding Description
This was the Hurricane Irene Wedding! This is probably one of the few couples that did not cancel their wedding located in the danger zone – Staten Island, in the beautiful Nicotra’s Ballroom at the Hilton Garden Inn. Besides the storm outside, Valerie and Kirill had a very happy mood and they were ready for any adventures! There are always guests who do not make it to the wedding under some circumstance and many were expected not to arrive due to the hazardous weather conditions, however, to this wedding, almost every guest arrived!! At this wedding, we have met a lot of our past couples who have told us that they have to come out and support their friends! We always love to see our past couples!
It was a very fun night, the DJ kept everyone on his feet!!! .

Real Wedding | Sunset da Mona Lisa, Los Cabos | Mexico Wedding Photographer Dennis Berti

Joe Milton — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 07:58:25 +0000

Wedding Photographer: Dennis Berti, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico Wedding Photographer
Ceremony Location: San Jose Catholic Church
Reception Location: Sunset da Mona Lisa, Los Cabos, Mexico
Wedding Planner: Infinity Weddings, Los Cabos, Mexico
Wedding Date: October 22, 2011
Client Names: Joanna & Charlie

Real Wedding Description
I loved this wedding. First of all because it was set in three different locations: the Westin Resort Los Cabos for the getting ready, the Catholic church for the ceremony and the Sunset da Mona Lisa Restaurant for the reception with Mariachi Music and its great terraces with an amazing ARCH view. One of the most spectacular thing in Cabo are the sunsets. Please check out the amazing and dramatic colors of the sky. I like to “play” with the natural light of the different venues.

I took the engagement photo session of Joanna and Charlie six months before the wedding date and we had such a great time.

And I also would like to thank the wedding planner Rachel Hansen of Infinity Cabo who did a great job with perfect organization..

Real Wedding | Casa Santo Domingo, Antigua, Guatemala | Vancouver Wedding Photography Funkytown Photography

Joe Milton — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 06:25:29 +0000

Wedding Photographer: Christina Craft, Vancouver, Canada Wedding Photographer
Ceremony and Reception Location: Casa Santo Domingo, Antigua, Guatemala
Wedding Date: October 23, 2011
Client Names: Victoria & Eric

Real Wedding Description
Victoria & Eric treated 100 guests from New York to a fabulous weekend celebration in one of the most spectacular destinations in the world for weddings – the Casa Santo Domingo in Antigua, Guatemala. This is one of the first colonial cities in Central America, and it’s a UNESCO heritage site since many of the buildings from the 1500s and 1600s remain, including the former monastery which is now home to the Casa Santo Domingo. When guests entered the church for the wedding everyone’s jaws completely dropped. More than 2,000 candles lit the ceremony alone and there were several thousand more used in the reception (including in all of the chandeliers). The majority of the lighting you see in all of these pictures (even in the bushes) are candles! Saguzo Eventos organized all of the details, including countless red roses, a Mayan dance troupe and a Michael Jackson impersonator. The city of Antigua itself is set in the mountains, overlooking three volcanoes and it has perpetual spring-like weather. If you’ve been considering getting married somewhere unique, I highly recommend the Casa Santo Domingo. It’s remarkably more affordable than you’d think, especially considering the world-class events held here. This is the second wedding I’ve photographed in this extraordinary location and I’m still completely amazed at the beauty of the city and the venue. It was also really great to work with Victoria & Eric, who are an incredibly nice couple (and photogenic too!)..
