Lesley took the mic after her husband Adam to say a few words. Looking out into over a hundred faces of beloved guests she began, "Adam and I want to thank you all for coming to celebrate with us." Lesley stood oh-so-close to her new husband Adam, not wanting to be even two steps away from him. "To Adam's parents, I thank you for raising this boy into the man he is today." She smiled, "I am crazy-in-love (said quickly, with a humourous shake of her head from side to side) with this incredible man. My husband Adam."

There's moments in my life when I meet people that I just get. Lesley and Adam are those kind of people. From my first meeting with these two in Starbucks in the Spring of 2008, we chatted our faces off. We talked about everything under the sun and probably even talked about the sun (or lack of it in Vancouver Aprils) as well. I shot their engagement session nearly a full year ago (mid-July 2008) and also had it filmed for a promo video.Lesley has a natural entrepreneurship/business brain, as does Adam. I LOVE hanging out with people who think like me! Over the past few months I've enjoyed getting to know them even more before their wedding day. After coffee dates and dinner at their apartment, I can confidently say I arrived on June 20th as a friend of these two. What's better than seeing a friend married to the man she adores? Nothing! What a great day.

Lesley is a woman of style and details and her day made me squeal with delight. First of all, she had three pairs of shoes: purple for portraits, white for the ceremony, brown dancing shoes for the reception. Yes please. All of the reception details and flowers for the day were organized by the super sweet Jeanette from Delovely Creative. (Love her!) The ceremony venue was the crazy-amazing Holy Rosary Cathedral in downtown Vancouver and the swanky reception was at The Vancouver Club.

The bride and groom are currently enjoying Greece and I couldn't be more jealous. Ohh Adam and Lesley, can't you get married every weekend so I could be a part of this day over and over? :)

Love,
J.
