Married outside with the mountains in the background on the most perfect day!

There are a few things that I will remember from this day. One is how it felt when we walked up in the morning. Everything was calm as can be. Abbi was just sitting outside, taking in the surroundings sipping on champagne. The day had turned out to be so beautiful. It called for showers (go figure) all week. It turned out to be a beautiful overcast day, which is absolutely perfect for photos, in my opinion of course.

Chris and Abbi had their ceremony outside at the Juniper in Banff. It was absolutely beautiful. A big thanks to Jenelle, with Special Event Rentals out of Edmonton, for making this day look absolutely stunning.

We headed off for formals. I have been dying to shoot at this location for years. I don’t make my way to Banff very often, let alone with a girl in white with a handsome guy by her side. So I just had to shoot here. Abbi loved it and it went so perfect with the girls pink dresses. It was so beautiful.

“Abbi, you just have that magic that completes Christopher. “

I have to agree with Chris’ Mom. You two are a perfect fit and everyone around you can see it.

When Abbi walked towards Chris for the first time dressed in white, Chris mouthed to her…WOW, you look beautiful. If that isn’t love, I don’t know what is.

Chris and Abbi…THANK YOU! Thank you for including me in such a perfect day. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your family and friends, if only for a moment. I will miss chatting with you about everything.

I wish you the most happiness in the world together.

XO

(p.s. It’s a long one. I am in love with everything about this wedding so I simply could not narrow it down!)
