Wedding at the Royal Laurentian Golf Course and Chalets: N+J

It was last August, in the backyard of a chalet at the Royal Laurentien resort. Jérémy and Nathalie were married in front of a few close friends and family. First of all, I should mention that it was a very hot and humid day. In fact, the ideas they had for celebrating their love couldn't have been more fitting. A groom without a jacket, children and a grandfather in sandals, and a private beach behind the chalet. Not to mention a go-kart ride to explore the nearby golf course. A golf course that I think is among the most beautiful in Quebec, and especially in the Laurentians! So, I started the day by photographing the accessories in the bride's room, in the largest chalet on the resort. Then I joined Jérémy, who was getting ready with his sons and family in the chalet next door, rented by his brother.

A true "backyard wedding" at Chalets Royal Laurentien

As my first backyard wedding I couldn't have asked for more. With a breathtaking view of the private lake and surrounding mountains, it was truly beautiful! Masterfully led by the officiant Dominique Spénard, the ceremony was beautiful, moving, funny and touching. The lovers having gotten engaged nine years before, it was time for them to say YES haha! I must say that in the meantime, they had three perfect children who always smiled when they saw me! I remember part of Jeremy's vows which said: "I am lucky because I found MY person 12 years ago already"

A walk on the Royal Laurentian Golf Course

So we took advantage of the cocktail hour to go for a go-kart ride. An organizer from the Golf Royal Laurentien accompanied us and led the way for our trio of go-karts. She knew exactly where to find the most beautiful places for me to photograph the bride and groom. Since the golf course is really big, I could have spent hours there taking pictures of the couple, the Laurentians are so beautiful!

A dinner with a food truck

Since their wedding was unconventional, the couple brought in the food truck from Pierino Gelato Laval for dinner. With a menu featuring several small courses, I also ended the day with ice cream! What did I love about my day in short? Laughing with the bride and groom, especially at how hot it was! I also loved the bride's custom-made dress by The Coup de Foudre shop. Then the dressing of the groom and the three boys. The superb bouquets of flowers made by She loves flowers as well as the beautiful cake of Anouk's Delights. Not to mention the food truck and especially the magnificent macramé arch made by the bride herself! All things that made this wedding unique and memorable!
