BECKY & PHIL GET MARRIED

Ahhh Becky & Phil... this wedding was a really special one to document. A very small group of only their closest family and friends joined these two in the little tourist town of Picton for the weekend and watched them get married in the little white chapel that's there just outside of town. Their friends helped direct everyone as they parked along the narrow road, and Becky grabbed hold of everyone's hand as she and Phil slowly made their way out of the church as a married couple.. it was just really special.. to think that as they looked out to see everyone's faces in the pews, that every single person who was there meant so much to them... and you could tell. We tried to tell that story the best way we could, here is a little piece of that story as we saw it :) Becky and Phil, so much love to you both. xo, jennThe Winery at Huff Estates | Picton, September 2012

KASSANDRA & MATT'S SUMMER CAMP WEDDING WEEKEND | a wedding at camp tamakwa muskoka

"... it doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals, or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine and your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic, or to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me who you are, or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back ..."

It's pretty hard to sum up this day, in words or in images, because Kass & Matt's day wasn't just a day, it was a weekend away in the wilderness of Algonquin Park, at a camp only accessible by boat. It wasn't just two people, it was a whole group of people, living in cabins and roasting marshmallows on the fire every night.... and it was beautiful and amazing because of what Kassandra told us the morning of her wedding day, heading to the dining hall for breakfast. She told us that being up there at Camp Tamakwa, that this was her idea of paradise.....[audio:https://jennanddavestark.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/04-Sun1.mp3,https://jennanddavestark.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/04-Sun1.mp3|titles=Sun,Sun|artists=Jonsi,Jonsi]We had the best time, the absolute best! I can't even put it into words accurately. We can't thank Matt & Kass enough for their 100% trust of our eyes and hearts to document their weekend as it happened, and we would do it again in a heartbeat, really we would. xo, jennCamp Tamakwa in Algonquin Park, Canada | if it looks familiar, you might have seen this movie! | September 2012
