Day 3 of Shefali and Thierry's wedding...
Thierry is originally from Amsterdam and in order to incorporate his heritage, they decided to have a western style wedding as well. Their western ceremony was something I could only imagine in my dreams. It was held in a remote location in Bragg Creek, on a private property. The ranch included a man-made lake complete with boat house, full size horse racing track, stables, individual chalets for the bridal party and... the set for the movie "Unforgiven" starring Clint Eastwood!!! Can you imagine getting married on a movie set?
It was decadent, extravagant, and utterly beautiful. Check out some of my favourite photographs below.
For this ceremony, Shefali chose a very beautiful, slim, calssic dress to show off her gorgeous figure. A stunning contrast from the Indain sari that she wore the day before.

We had some time before the ceremony started, so I decided to take Shefali outside and take some relaxed portraits. Her natural beauty shines through in these images, absolutely stunning.
The cabin was up high on the hill side overlooking the location where the ceremony was about to take place, so Shefali could see everyone down below but no one could see her!
I love this silhouette taken in the entrance of boat house.

Shefali's long walk down the aisle... In the background you can see the chapel, the casino, and the saloon. Since the chapel was too small to house all 300+ wedding guests, they opted to have their ceremony outdoors on the helicopter pad. You couldn't ask for a more unique and gorgeous location.
The love that these two have for each other is unwavering, you can just see it in her eyes.
Breathtaking views, a couple in love, and a bridal party up for anything, what more could you ask for?
The Dutch boys having a quick game of roulette in the casino in between takes.
Shefali and Thierry are so blessed to have such amazing, loving people in their lives. The speeches given at their wedding were some of the funniest and most touching I have ever heard.
Also, some of the most delicious wedding cake I have ever had - and I have tasted a lot! Looking for an amazing wedding cake or a delectable dessert?
Pure romance.
