xAlex and Nadia’s June wedding was as unique as the couple themselves, complete with an epic windstorm, moody overcast skies, and their two adorable dachshunds. As the wind whipped through the valley, it added a dramatic flair to the day—ruffling hair and dresses, sweeping through the wildflower fields, and creating a cinematic atmosphere that made every photo feel alive. The Fraser River Lodge, nestled against the stunning backdrop of the mountains and the river, was the perfect stage for this one-of-a-kind celebration.

After the ceremony, we ventured through the property capturing wedding party and couple portraits. The overcast skies provided the most dreamy, diffused light, highlighting the vibrant colors of the wildflowers and creating a soft, romantic vibe. These are the moments I live for as a Chilliwack wedding photographer—capturing raw, authentic connections surrounded by nature’s splendor.

Surrounded by friends and family who had traveled from near and far, the day was a heartfelt celebration of love and togetherness. Despite the wild weather, the warmth and joy shared by everyone present kept the spirit of the day glowing. It was a beautiful reminder that even with life’s unpredictability—or perhaps because of it—love always finds a way to shine.

The Lodge’s picturesque setting is ideal for couples who want to embrace the natural beauty of the Fraser Valley. With its expansive property, the venue can comfortably host weddings of up to 200 guests, ensuring there’s plenty of space for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations.

Chilliwack Wedding Photographer | Matt and Sydnee’s Celebration at Chilliwack Golf Club

Not gonna lie, it’s been a while since I’ve completely sobbed at a wedding. Sure, I’ve shed a few tears here and there, but Matt and Sydnee’s intimate family wedding at Chilliwack Golf Club had me tearing up right alongside them. This wasn’t just any wedding—it was a heartfelt celebration filled with love, laughter, and the most touching moments that left not a dry eye in the room (including mine!).

A Heartfelt First Look in Abbotsford, BC

The day started in the serene woods of Abbotsford, BC, where Matt and Sydnee shared their First Look and then their wedding portraits. This private moment set the tone for the day—a blend of deep love and pure joy. We also captured some quick wedding party photos with their closest family members and two best friends. This group, whom I’ve lovingly dubbed “their forever bubble,” radiated love and support.

Intimate Wedding Ceremony at Chilliwack Golf Club

Afterward, we made our way to the Chilliwack Golf Club, a premier wedding venue in the Fraser Valley and home to the stunning Canex Pavilion. Known as one of the most spectacular outdoor wedding and banquet centers in the region, the venue provided the perfect backdrop for their intimate ceremony and celebration.

A Creative Car Parade of Love

Despite having to pare down their guest list due to current restrictions, Matt and Sydnee’s friends didn’t let that stop them from celebrating. A surprise car parade through the Golf Course brought laughter and heartfelt congratulations, reminding everyone just how much these two are adored.

Emotional Wedding Speeches That Left Everyone in Tears

As the day transitioned into heartfelt speeches, the emotions overflowed. Family members shared stories of Matt and Sydnee’s love, resilience, and the ways they’ve impacted those around them. I managed to keep it together through the first few speeches, but when the floodgates of emotion opened, the entire room became a beautiful, teary-eyed mess. Matt & Sydnee- you are loved. Truly and completely, not only by each other, but by each and everyone one of the people you choose to have a part of your lives. Matt and Sydnee I am truly honoured that you trusted me to capture your love on this first day together as each others forever’s. The love surrounding these two was palpable, reminding everyone what weddings are truly about: connection, community, and an unwavering commitment to each other.
