Mel and Tony's Big Day! Only 5 months late....

Mel and Tony were married in December but I'm only just now getting around to posting some (ok, a lot!) of their photos. This is quite easily my longest post ever, and there are so many more I would have loved to share. Congratulations you guys!

The only thing more beautiful than Mel's dress was Mel herself :)

The make-up artist was fantastic, even giving us all make-up lessons as she went about making the girls look fabulous!
Putting in the all-important veil!

Corset backs always require a little help :)

A pretty important mother-daughter moment!
The bride is starting to get excited!




Mel and her best friend and maid-of-honour.

My favourite shot of Mel from the entire day!

When everyone was ready, the girls went outside for a few photos on the deck.

Mel even got her wish - flurries!

I wasn't there for the getting-ready session for the guys, but I did catch Tony's brother helping with his boutonniere. It's not as easy as it looks! :)

Mel's parents both escorted her down the aisle.During their ceremony...


Sharing a moment when it was all-said-and-done.

We did it!

It wouldn't be a wedding without some kissing :)
Bridal party fun at Watson's Mill in Manotick.

The "brothers"


There's nothing like a kissing silhouette!
Clearly, the speeches were entertaining!

First dance

Just a lucky shot, I really like it....

Tony's mom was so much fun!

Need I say more?!?! :)

The kids had a ball!

I almost felt bad taking this shot, as though I was interrupting a 'moment'.
A few details....

Decorating the chandeliers with Christmas balls was such a great idea! Everything was so festive!

An engagement photo (also taken by moi!)....
