We had the pleasure of being part of Jessica and Howard's engagement and wedding. This young, easy-going couple loved being intimate outdoors and we get to really explore and use the temperate rainforest that is in the city as their backdrop. Jessica is a quiet individual, and Howard is a funny and energetic, and romantic. Howard surprised Jessica when he took her on a horse-drawn carriage ride date deep in the forest. In a clearing on the soft bed of the forest floor, he hired Jessie from We Do Weddings Etc to set up a table, flowers, champagne, a violinist, and asked for her hand in marriage.
We were so thrilled to be invited to capture their lovely wedding just a couple months later! The couple said their vows in an intimate outdoor wedding at the beautiful Cecil Green Park House and held their reception on a yacht. Their wedding theme colour was lavender purple which matched so beautifully with the summer flowers and the greenery.

It's finally here. Yna and Yohei's wedding photos and video!! This was one of the weddings we waited for a long time. A wedding full of our own friends, a wedding with most DIY and tears, a wedding that is most special to us. Yna and Yohei have been very supportive friends ever since Modern Romance launched in 2010. It has been a long journey for us and we are very grateful to have them by our side with so much love and support.
Read MoreWe had the pleasure to capture another Cambodian wedding this year! It's been so long ever since Serey + Marcus' Cambodian wedding last August. We were thrilled when Jenny and Andy told us that they will be having a Cambodian ceremony at a backyard because we love everything at a Cambodian ceremony. All the vibrant colours, flowers, paired trays of exotic fruits, blessings from beloved family and friends, and the best part is - their beautiful outfits!!! Oh, and there's always so much delicious food to eat. Yup, and the list goes on!
It gets better the next day, second part of their wedding - the Vietnamese tea ceremony at Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden. It was probably the best venue to have a tea ceremony. All the Chinese touch to it with the beautiful traditional outfit, Jenny looked absolutely astonishing! Like any tea ceremony, there's always the infamous Door Games that comes first. The perfect chance for any bridesmaids to ask the groom and his groomsmen to do anything and also legitimately ask for red pockets (the monetary gift!). Andy and his men were asked to sing of else no bride for Andy, one of the common "tasks" but yet always entertaining to have.
The reception was something that we had waited for the whole year - a 500-people banquet at a fully decorated Chinese seafood restaurant in Richmond! It was definitely a huge party all night long. So glad we had the opportunity to be a part of such an incredible wedding. Now, please enjoy their epic Same-Day-Edit and be ready for the best Thor Punch Action ever filmed for a wedding film!

reactions of the couple and their awesome bridal party! BEST REACTIONS EVER!
The sweetest couple!
We are so excited and thrilled to be sharing these sneak peeks with you and our friends. It's the wedding that we have been waiting for, the wedding that is most unique and special to us. We are biased simply because Yna and Yohei are not only very good friends of ours, they are also our biggest supporters ever since Modern Romance launched. Oh and also our very own photographer, Ruby, wasn't a photographer at this wedding. She was one of Yna's bridesmaids, she finally got to experience on the other side of the camera and witness her own team in action. It was also the wedding that we know most of the guests and friends, not to mention, it was the most touching and teary wedding we have ever been to and captured. It was impossible not to have watery eyes at the reception. Simply the most touching wedding ever.
We can't tell you how much this wedding means to us. Just let us proudly present you some sneak peeks!
Special thanks to Tony & Mathias for shooting this wedding while Ruby's busy being a bridesmaid. =)
the ladies start their morning with a shot of mead!
Gorgeous wedding on the balcony with an outstanding view of Vancouver Downtown at Pinnacle at the Pier in North Vancouver. Check out their adorable flower girls and butterfly release at the ceremony. One of our favourite venues for sure!
the ladies getting dolled up!
Love Silvia's beautiful blue eyes
One of the best ceremony sites to have on a sunny day in Vancouver - the balcony on 8th floor at Pinnacle At the Pier! Can't resist the view of downtown Vancouver!
Releasing the butterflies, welcoming the new life together.
One big happy family!
