Stephanie and Hunter’s wedding at Strathmere Lodge in Ottawa was the kind of day that feels like it was made just for them, sunny, warm, and full of love. From the very start, the day was full of excitement and anticipation. Stephanie got ready in the McGill House at Strathmere, surrounded by lots of natural light and laughter with her bridesmaids, while Hunter prepared off-site, gearing up for the moment he would finally see his bride.
Their outdoor ceremony was nothing short of beautiful. Friends and family gathered at the Lodge’s courtyard as Stephanie and Hunter exchanged heartfelt vows under the summer sun. Every detail felt perfectly in place, reflecting their personalities and the love they share.
After the ceremony, the party moved indoors for a reception filled with music, laughter, and so many memorable moments. As the sun began to set, Stephanie and Hunter stepped outside again for their first dance. The sky turned a stunning shade of blue, and the twinkle lights above created a magical setting for this intimate moment.
And just when everyone thought the surprises were over, Stephanie wowed Hunter with a second outfit for the party portion of the evening, proving that weddings are not only about tradition, but also about fun, spontaneity, and celebrating your way.
Stephanie and Hunter’s day was full of joy, love, and those little moments that make a wedding truly unforgettable. It was a celebration that felt intimate, personal, and completely them, a perfect start to their life together.
