Jordan & Shawn's Wedding :: September 9th, 2006

Jordan and Shawn's wedding was a very special event that I feel honoured to have been asked to photograph. Not only was it the celebration of the union of the two of them, but it was also the celebration of the union of their family which includes Shawn's four amazing children. It was such a fabulous day! The event took place in Millbrook at an old church that has since been converted into the King Street Centre for the Arts. Jordan wore a gorgeous custom blue raw silk dress and her bridesmaids wore matching floral printed dresses. All of the formal photos were taken before the ceremony so that there was plenty of time for me to take candids of the cocktail hour. During the ceremony their parents, the kids and the bride and groom each planted a shoot of bamboo to signify their new family. At the end of the ceremony the wedding party danced down the aisle to Stevie Wonder. The love between Jordan and Shawn is so great - you could see it in their eyes every time that they looked at each other. There is something truly special between them that most of us only hope to find in our own lives. Congratulations to you both!
