Alex & Liz found my information on social media. We met up for a consultation in New Westminster one Friday evening. A casual meet up turned into a bottle of wine, 3-4 hours of chatting over our mutual love for late night fast food runs and Liz's adorable (and hilarious) French accent. We also reminisced about our time in England, as Alex went to school just over and hour outside where I was born.
Alex & Liz met in Mexico, while both simultaneously both on family vacations. Liz was living in Quebec where her family currently lives and Alex from Vancouver. Alex even made an 'extra' layover in Quebec on his way home from Mexico, must have been love at first site! They both now reside in Vancouver.
They got ready (without seeing each other) at a family friends house in Shaunessy, just gorgeous location! Family and friends from near and far surrounded them all morning.
Then we headed to Redeemer Lutheran Church in Vancouver, which has been a family staple for a very long time. The ceremony was translated in both French and English.
Now it was time for the real party to begin. After photos we headed to Science world where their reception was held on the rooftop overlooking false creek at sunset. We toasted to Alex' dad (who celebrated with us from heaven) and enjoyed speeches, heartfelt dances & ate incredible food. Ill let the photos speak for themselves…
