Three awesome days with Amal and Aleem!

We were excited to meet up with Amal and Aleem for their three day extravaganza. I love East Indian weddings. The colours, the traditions, the FOOD! Oh yes, how I love the food.

Day 1 was the Mendhi for Amal. The artist was amazing and one of the best I've ever seen.







Day two





Amal brought in an amazing belly dancer.



Aleem didn't fare so well at his party though... hahahaha



Day three. Aleem's mom was a bit skeptical when I chose her kitchen trash bin to shoot their rings on. I like it. =)



And here they are finally together on their wedding day!



It was a beautiful October day!



Then off for the ceremony.



They seemed happy to sign the contracts.



Then we went to the Matrix Hotel for a wardrobe/hair/makeup change.





Haha, the hotel reception was nice enough to let us usurp the front desk for this shot.





This darn fireplace turns on and off randomly... and every time we set up for the shot it would turn off. It took us about 3-4 tries to finally get a shot with the fire on.







The reception was at the Meridian



There was more dancing for entertainment



What's a reception without embarrassing comments?







So congratulations you guys. It was an awesome weekend and we had a blast hanging with both your families. I'm sure we'll visit you soon to eat more of your food... LOL.

Fall colours with Carla and Miguel

We went down to Calgary again to enjoy the beautiful fall colours with Carla and Miguel.

First met up with Carla at the beautiful Eau Claire Sheraton downtown



Then off to the salon!



We then met up with the guys at Carla and Miguel's beautiful condo in the prestigious Mount Royal area. We only had to walk onto the street right in front of their place to find some great photo spots.





The rings



These two were so unbelievably cute!



The ceremony was at the gorgeous Sacred Heart Parish downtown.



Congrats!!



Huddle together! It's cold! It started to rain right as we left for the photoshoot. Didn't scare anyone though. I can't complain, we haven't been rained on this whole wedding season!



The colours were out on the trees!



And also in the sky!





I love this... it almost looks like you're looking down into some small village.



LOL, Carla and Miguel were making faces at each other regularly.





We then went to the Rotary House for the reception. Here Merry caught them sharing a moment while waiting to be allowed into the building... haha



First Dance



You guys were so fun to hang out with and know how to have a good time, despite some rain. So thank you very much for that. Please keep in touch and we wish you the happiest marriage possible! =)
