Here are a few pictures from a lovely wedding outdoor wedding ceremony at the Cochrane RancheHouse. Marc and Melissa had a really summery theme, all yellow and navy blue, which are two of my favourite colours together. The bright bouquets (flowers by Li’l Mam Flowers), shoes, bridesmaid dresses and men’s accessories all coordinated together beautifully.

This was my first time to the Cochrane RancheHouse, what a great venue. It’s huge and the grounds are wild and lovely. I love that you could actually see the Rocky Mountains in the far, far distance.

This was a very international wedding, with guests from all over the world. So adding to the cheerful festivity were many ladies in their formal hats. I wish this were a tradition we saw here more! These hats are not only beautiful, but practical — the midday sun was bright during the outdoor ceremony. It was a hot summer day with typical Alberta quickly-changing weather and sweeping cloud formations, so we were lucky to have a lot of variety during the portraits. Anyway, here are a few of the photographs we took in Cochrane:
