Claire + Robert = Married!

Claire and Robert are MARRIED! Out of all the winter days we had in Vancouver, we got the most perfect one! Sky is clear, fog is gone, no snow, no slush! Yay! I had such an awesome day with Claire and Robert. They are the most fantastic people to work with! Did I mention that they are tall? Especially Robert who towers over me. I lost count how many things i’ve climbed that day to get a good perspective/angle of them. But it was all fun though. Ceremony and reception was at Brix Restaurant. We also did a “First Look” which I would totally recommend to everyone as it really helps with the logistics of the day!

Vanessa second shot for me throughout the day and she did a fabulous job with the guys getting ready!

Room service! This looked so good! I was eyeing that last piece of pizza left, but no such luck for me. I was starving!

Love these shoes, they were a million inches high! Say good bye to your feet Claire!

Apparently, she is much smarter than that. She got these cute white ones for walking around. Love these too!

Here is Claire’s mom’s muff from a long long time ago which we used for some photos! Everyone got a kick out of it when Claire explained this.:D

The only way to put on the garter is to prop up your leg onto the couch! Yes! Love that Claire!

We got some crazy dancing afterwards! The dance floor was busssy!

CR_1990.jpgCR_1992.jpgCR_2000.jpgCR_2002.jpgCR_2024.jpg
