Winter wedding at the Queen’s Landing, Niagara on the Lake

Elizabeth and I met in Sicily back in 2010. Due to a fortunate chain of events we ended up staying at the same fantastic vila. We connected right away on many levels and I recall our laughs with great pleasure. We truly felt we must have been sisters in a previous life! Since, we have had long, deep conversations over the phone and have exchanged soul soothing emails. She is a special human being and I am very happy to have her in my life. Needless to say, I was super excited for her the moment she announced the engagement to Dan, her boyfriend of a few years. They met in Buffalo while she was doing her Master’s at the Buffalo State College. Fate? I would think so! I have not had the pleasure to meet her fiancĂ© until their wedding day. And I was very content to discover that Elizabeth could have not chosen to spend the rest of her life with someone better suited: a gentleman in all senses. I felt fortunate to get to spend so many hours around them that pretty mild January day and I could have not thought of a better way of part taking in all the emotion while capturing some great moments through my lens. Their choice of a venue was fantastic, the quaint Queen’s Landing in Niagara on the Lake still had all the Christmas decorations up so the celebrations felt even more festive.

Dear Sissy Beth and your lovely Dan, I am wishing you both a new path paved with love, mutual support, fun, health and many wild dreams coming true!! Lots of love, Sissy M.

A wedding at Queen’s Landing, Niagara on the Lake

Carly & Patrick got married on a gorgeous September day. I love Niagara on the Lake and I was thrilled with their great choice!

I am always inspired whenever I find myself close to the water. Their ceremony took place at the quaint Queen’s Landing. Everybody was relaxed and laid back, but I could constantly feel a lot of emotion in the air. There was one moment in particular that really touched me: both Carly’s grandmothers tied their rings to her bouquet. It was difficult for me to hold back my own tears!

After the ceremony Carly and Patrick were taken in a carriage over to the reception place, the beautiful and elegant Prince of Wales Hotel, Niagara on the Lake’s landmark.

I finished my day with a delicious ice cream at “Cows”, while relaxing and contemplating the way the events have unfolded throughout the day. I felt content and thankful.

Congratulations Carly and Patrick and may your new life together be joy filled!
