Cold Lake, Alberta – Chuck & Marlie’s wedding!
Saturday, August 21 was a beautiful day to get married in Cold Lake! It was sunny, but with enough of a breeze that no one overheated. The smoky haze that had been hovering over the entire region last week cleared enough that it didn’t effect the photos.
Chuck and Marlie booked me WAAAAYYYYY back in 2008; they were supposed to get married last year, but postponed the wedding to 2010. It seemed to work out perfectly anyway! The couple married in her parents’ backyard, which backs right onto the beach and Cold Lake itself. Absolutely gorgeous! Marlie was so beautiful in her ivory gown, and Chuck was handsome and beach-wedding-ready in his white shirt and khakis.
A few quick shots just before the ceremony started …


The beautiful bride and her dad!

The guys watching the bride come up the aisle …

The amazing wedding location






Smooch!! I think the kiss is my favorite part of every wedding!


The receiving line …

Is there anything cooler than a hammock by the lake?



Then we headed out to the M.D. Park for some more photos …







And then back to Marlie’s parents’ place for drinks and some more photos!




I was TERRIFIED for Marlie’s dress! But the seadoo shots worked out great!





Congratulations Chuck and Marlie, and thank you so much for choosing me as your wedding photographer!


Great Album Jen!!!! Wht a brave and fun couple!
Wow, totally cool. So many to love. I love the look of her dad during the ceremony. Love that the groom and groomsmen went white and casual and adore that one of them on the water machine!
