AN AMAZING WINTER WEDDING WAS HELD AT THE STUNNING VENUE "THE MEADOWS" LOCATED JUST 15 MINUTES OUTSIDE OF BELLEVILLE, ONTARIO, DISPLAYED STUNNING RUSTIC VIBES WITH A BEAUTIFUL TASTE OF ELEGANCE.

This beautiful winter day in Stirling, Ontario, witnessed a stunning couple taking part in an amazing opportunity for wedding vendors to join together and create magic.

What is a content day? Content days are amazing opportunties for local wedding vendors to join together and create scenes that photographers can capture. Content days aren't just for photographers. Wedding coordinators, florist, makeup artists, hair stylists, videographers, content creators and so many more are all apart of creating this union to all work together.

This content day was very special to me. Not only did I feel like this opportunity came together seamlessly as if it were meant to be, but I was able to collaborate with a number of vendors I have previously worked with either at other content days or witnessing couples saying "I do." Our stunning models Michelle and Brad are an actual married couple for 11 years. To top it off Michelle was our stunning makeup artist. Michelle Shaw Makeup has the ability to enhance natural beauty while bringing a brides vision to life. In this case my vision.

Suddard Cinematic Media was another amazing talented vendor to join this day. Karley and Josh are near and dear to my heart not only for their talent but I have personally hired them for my own wedding. Their ability to be storytellers, capturing moments as they unfold and transforming them into cinematic media. Something I 100% would recommend to every couple who are looking to capture their special day.

Amber from Exclusive Invites sets the tone for life's most special moments. Her work blends creativity, elegance, and personal touches to craft pieces that reflect a couples unique love story. Her talent added a special touch to this day!

Mikaela from Hair by Mik is an artist. Not only being my personal hairdresser but how she can make brides feel special on their big day is true talent. With skillful hands and an eye for detail, she creates stunning hairstyles that complement the bride's vision, dress and overall aesthetic. She created a stunning hair style that complimented Michelle beautifully. With the added touch of a hair accessory made this hair style complete.

Marissa from Rustic & Ritz creates stunning florals for brides special day. She has the ability to transform a couple's vision into a breathtaking floral masterpeiece. Marissa took my inspirational images for this day and made it real. I love the white flowers with hints of greys and blues which matched perfectly for this winter wedding day.

Brooke the owner of Runway Bridal has provided her stunning dresses for many of my content days. Not only have we worked together multiple times but I have been honoured to be her family photographer. She is more than the owner of Runway Bridal she is a curator of dreams and a guide in one of the most emotional and exciting journeys a bride will take. With a keen eye for style, fabric, and detail she hand selects gowns that capture the essence of romance, elegance, and individuality.

Last but not least The Meadows. The family owned buisness is something I can't recommend enough. Not only having the opportunity to be a photographer at this venue but also being a bridesmaid at my friends wedding. I am speechless about the service this family has provided to both the newly weds but also their guests. They truly know how to make everyone feel comfortable during a busy day. This wedding venue is more than just a location- it's the backdrop for a couples love story, setting the stage for unforgettable moments.
