Fort Garry Hotel Wedding

Lance & Bri got married on a beautiful September day. We met at the St. Boniface Cathedral for their first look but of course the girls were running late, so we started off with some photos of Lance and his groomsmen. Once the ladies showed up, we did their first look. Bri looked absolutely stunning in her sleek, long sleeve gown. She was giving some serious Kate Middleton vibes. So beautiful. The bridal party was a blast and they really were the hype team for Lance & Bri. I love seeing the support a couple has going into their marriage and these two are surrounded by the best. We headed over to the Legislative Building for some more photos and the locations just suited them so well. The ceremony was held at St. Luke’s Anglican Church and after some family photos outside the church, we headed to the Fort Garry Hotel for the reception! They had their reception in the Crystal Ball Room and it might just be the most beautiful reception space in Winnipeg. Everything was stunning, from the room itself, to the gorgeous decor. Amanda Douglas and her team did a fantastic job of coordinating the day and seeing to every detail. One of Bri’s bridesmaids made the cake and the flowers were done by Academy Florist. Everything came together so perfectly. Lance and Bri introduced their own wedding party and set the mood for the evening with both their humour and obvious love for each of their friends and family. The food was catered by The Fort Garry Hotel and it was delicious. My favourite part of the speeches was the video montage of Bri’s dancing that her mom had put together. All the speeches were both hilarious and heartfelt. The whole day was filled with an atmosphere of fun, happiness and love. Enjoy!
