Mountain Summer Wedding [Drew and Alyssa]
Alyssa and Drew had such a beautiful wedding in Lethbridge surrounded by so much love from their families.
The couple originally wanted a mountain summer wedding but with so many relatives who couldn’t make the trip, they decided to keep the party in Lethbridge and just drive out to the mountains for their portraits in the afternoon. After a beautiful drive out to the Crowsnest Pass, Drew and Alyssa got to spend time in the forest and under the mountains, giving them the landscapes they love so much.
Alyssa is a very talented country singer so it was a natural fit for their wedding to have country-inspired themes and involve lots of music! Alyssa even performed at her own reception, which was such a fun touch. I’m so glad we could bring one of her guitars out for photos!
Congratulations, Drew & Alyssa!
We started off the day with their wedding ceremony at St. Basil’s Church in Lethbridge.
Alyssa’s brand new niece loved smiling for the camera!
The cowboy boots were a perfect touch :)
Our first stop in the Crowsnest Pass was at the Miner’s Path, where we also did Drew and Alyssa’s engagement session. Back then the leaves weren’t out yet so it looked like a totally different place on this trip.
Drew and Alyssa are both runners and brought along their sneakers for a few photos. They were also smart and spent the reception in the same shoes for comfort :)
After our first location, we went closer to Turtle Mountain for some mountain landscape views.
Their reception that evening was held back in Lethbridge at the Italian Canadian Club.
For their honeymoon, Drew and Alyssa will be running the Disney marathon. Their cake topper was a bit of a send off :)
Drew’s grandparents won the anniversary dance for being married the longest. They are so sweet together!
