Wedding in sunny California was powered by love

August 15, 2009 :: Pasadena, California

Story by Carla @ The Ring

The summer of 2009 was a whirlwind of weddings that I went to and was a part of - four beautiful weddings of eight amazing friends of mine and Tony's (that's my boyfriend, in case you were wondering). I've always loved weddings, even before I found this dream job where I get to write about them, so even though it was super busy, it was also really fun. It's even more fun now that I'm on the inside of the wedding industry because I get to take note of all of the moments, details and unique ways that people personalize their weddings.

Couple beats the pre-winter weather with a wedding in sunny Dominican

With winds blistering outside and salt stained pants dripping with slush, it's hard to imagine that Spring is in the near future. And as the Team at The Ring turns up the furnace, we find ourselves lost in photos from destination weddings. The sun, the sand and the vibrant colours almost made us forget that it was minus thirty outside.

 

Jennifer & Tyler had the same idea when they planned their wedding in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic for November of 2009. And now, while all of our tanless bodies dry out, Jennifer and Tyler have their photos to look at while they drift back to their perfectly sunny wedding day, which was held on November 24, 2009. Luckily for us, they've shared their photos and a bit of their wedding story.

 

Dana & Adam: Northern Ontario Wedding Style

October 4 2008 :: Algoma Mills

Dana Arkilander and Adam Lauder met six years ago while sharing the late shift at a Waterloo coffee pub. After work, they often found themselves playing cards into the wee hours of the night. After Dana first asked Adam out to on an official date - to a movie - that was it. "We've been together ever since."

 

Crystal & Brandon: Winter Wedding Charm

March 15 2008 :: Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Brantford
& Concorida Club, Kitchener

Brandon Dmytryshyn proposed to Crystal Kalcsa in August of 2007. Brandon and Crystal had taken a walk down the beach at sunset, only to return to a fairytale scene set up by their close friends—a blanket laid on the beach surrounded by burning candles and a bottle of wine. “We drank strawberry wine, watched shooting stars and then Brandon proposed… Of course I said yes,” explained Crystal. She says that she and Brandon share a deep love and respect for each other and for God.

 

Tyla & Brian: Saying ‘I Do' in Style

June 14 2008 :: Hauser Hall, Heidelberg

Like so many couples today, Tyla Fullerton and Brian Sweet met on the internet. Brian said one of the things he loved most about Tyla was that she is a strong intelligent woman “who cares deeply about her family and community.” For Tyla, it was about “Brian’s sense of humour and his optimism. He can always make me laugh and he keeps me grounded.”
