Nathalie + Christopher's Backyard Wedding

Meaghan Marmillod July 8, 2020

Congratulations to the happy couple! I am so happy to have been the photographer at Nathalie and Christopher’s socially distanced backyard wedding. In spite of many planning challenges caused by COVID regulations, this bride and groom took it all in stride and were one of the most laid-back and happy wedding-day couples I have known!

After having their plan A and plan B reception venues cancelled, the family and friends of this couple came together and created the sweetest backyard celebration to send them off on their new life together.

You know it’s a COVID wedding when (the cutest ever) soap and hand sanitizers are gifted as the party favours!

The small, intimate (and socially distanced!) ceremony took place in the beautiful Blessed Sacrament Church, in Toronto.

We had two minutes (literally!) of portrait time after the ceremony as the Limo driver unexpectedly had to leave early. This did not phase our happy couple, too pleased to have found their person to let little details ruin a perfect wedding day.
