Chris and Mallory tied the knot on Saturday, June 26 at Mallory’s parents’ farm near Elk Point, Alberta. With their two young sons and about 50 of their closest family and friends looking on, they said their “I wills” and “I dos” and then, yes, Chris kissed his bride! It was a beautiful wedding, with tears and laughter, hugs and handshakes, small children running underfoot, lush greenery and generous sunshine. A perfect day for a wonderful couple!

Here’s the sneak preview from Chris and Mallory’s wedding ….

Nervous giggles!

Kissing of the bride

Decor was by I Do Wedding & Special Event Planning

Father Sam is from Ireland; I am now convinced every wedding needs an Irish priest. He was fantastic!

Mallory making it official and legal

Cody with grandpapa and grandmama – I could tell that Mallory’s folks just adore their grandsons!

Mr. and Mrs. Chris and Mallory Dykstra!

Hugs from her bridesmaid, who is also her aunt. I love hugs. Hugs are great!

Some love for the groom!

After the receiving line, we photographed the family formals. This is Mallory and her mom – aren’t they gorgeous?!

Daddies and their little girls!

The lovely ladies of the bridal party

This cutter made the perfect backdrop for the family formals, and then a few with the bride and groom, of course!

There were some pretty cool clouds, so we did some off-camera flash techniques!

A nice gust of wind!

The flowers were by The Jungle in St. Paul, Alberta.

Mallory and Chris, thank you so much for choosing Jennifer Jacula Photography! I had a great time photographing your wedding and meeting your family and friends. I wish you the best of everything and we’ll talk to you soon!
