At the Grand Lodge Mont-Tremblant Wedding/Wedding by C+L
Chloé and Louis chose to get married last fall at the Grand Lodge in Mont-Tremblant. The couple chose THE perfect weekend to say "I do" in the Mont-Tremblant region. It was early October, and at this time of year, the trees in the Laurentians have already started to change color. The couple met in 2018, after chatting a bit on Tinder. Their first meeting lasted eight hours. It took place in a brasserie, and they closed the place because the conversations were flowing freely between them! They complement each other perfectly and get along wonderfully. On their big day, they looked at each other as if they were discovering each other all over again, their hearts in their eyes! Here's a glimpse of their perfect day, from the beginning of the preparations to the dancing in the evening.
The suit made exclusively for Louis by Surmesur. It is a beautiful green-grey!
When Chloe put on her beautiful princess dress, she told me that she was the first to be surprised by the effect it had on her during the fitting. She fell in love with it and couldn't resist it!
Ceremony at the Grand Lodge, in front of Lake Ouimet
The weather was wonderful for an outdoor ceremony, in front of the magnificent Lake Ouimet. We could see the trees bursting with color on the other shore during the ceremony. It was splendid. With a warm autumn sun, the bride and groom couldn't have asked for more. Celebrated by a very close friend of Louis, the ceremony was beautiful, touching, funny, and filled with love and emotion.
Once the ceremony was over, we were able to take advantage of the beautiful light at the end of the day to take pictures of the couple. I thank them greatly for their availability and openness in wanting to take their time to have photos in several different places. Moreover, when you think about it, couple photos are pretty much the only time of the day when the bride and groom are alone together. Apart from my presence and that of my assistant of course haha! Also, it's a moment to digest the range of emotions that a ceremony can bring to life.
We had asked the bridal party to join us at a specific time to take pictures with the bride and groom. I've noticed that in recent years, couples are open to doing things differently, to no longer following traditions. While Louis had 4 groomsmen (including his brother), Chloe only had one bridesmaid, her sister. And it was perfect that way. It's okay not to have the same number of bridesmaids and groomsmen. Or not to have any bridesmaids and groomsmen. It doesn't offend anyone haha.
Festive evening at the Grand Lodge
The guests and the bride and groom's families were very friendly, making the evening a festive one. With a few speeches, games, the cake cutting, and dancing, it flew by in no time. Often, my cue to leave is when the dance floor is full. I take pictures for 10-15 minutes, and that's enough. Then it's time to leave and return to Montreal, my head full of beautiful memories of the day. And above all, I'm very happy to have been with the bride and groom to immortalize this day that was so important to them!
