Cassandra and Antony had an absolutely lovely wedding at one of my all time favourite wedding venues, Hessenland Inn on the shores of Lake Huron in Southwestern Ontario.
Like almost every other couple getting married these days, their wedding plans had been wrecked by COVID-19 forcing rescheduling and even rebooking of a certain vendor who I won’t name who refused to provide proof of vaccination or even get tested…. luckily Cassandra and Antony were able find an amazing replacement in Jeff Sabin!
Began the day with Cassandra and the girls at her parents beautiful country property just outside of Zurich, Ontario as they got their hair and make up done. Also popped quickly into town to Cassandra’s brothers place were the boys were hanging out for some prep pictures of them as well.
Cassandra and Antony opted to have a first look where they see each other before the wedding, something that I always recommend. In my experience this gives the wedding day schedule a much better flow… We can get all the portraits out of the way before the ceremony which allows the everyone to go straight from wedding ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception. I find it also gives couples more time with the guests and more opportunities for candid moments.
Cassandra and Antony lucked out and had the most amazing weather for a wedding in October… not a cloud in the sky and it was still pretty warm out for their outdoor wedding ceremony.
For cocktail hour they had arranged to have lots of games for their guests to enjoy on the beautiful grounds of Hessenland Inn.
Dinner was amazing, as always, with plenty of laughs and even a few tears during speeches and lots of dancing to end the night!
