What an incredible team that Shear Inspiration Studio and Island Moments put together last weekend!
Oh boy. With less than a few days’ notice we somehow had the most stunning models on Vancouver Island sign-up for a seriously crazy day.
Kelsey and Toni {hair and make-up, Shear Inspiration Studio) are simply artists at their craft. Truly. Absolutely. Perfection. We are so honoured to be able to continuously work with them.
The always gracious and graceful Dawne from White Bridal helped us select impeccable gowns. The models did not attend the dress selection meeting, which tells you just how talented Dawne is. Brides take note – this woman is outstanding at her job!
The flowers? With no time to bug one of our awesome local florists, we just {made do}! Silks from Michaels. Gerber’s from the local grocer. Cedar boughs from Lisa’s yard – fresh cut Sunday morning!
Jessica from Van Island Weddings with 24 hours notice, came in and simply became part of the crew at the salon and on location. There was no need to ask her for help, she just dug in and knew what to do.
Four locations in the harbour city. We held up traffic (Julianna – you STOPPED traffic). We chased ducks. Well. Erin chased them. Just a little bit!!! We had some kissing. We had some dipping. We had gorgeous Kayla trotting oh so delicately down the gangway in high heels at the harbour. We had a dad covering his daughter with his own jacket after a cold wind at Neck Point left her shivering and blue (oh Toni!). We had the hair stylist model boho…
We’ll let the images speak for themselves. At the end of the day we were all exhausted. But so blissful. Sometimes there’s magic in a day. Thanks everyone, you all clearly carry that magic inside of you!
