Pender Island Wedding: Jeanine + Carmen

In our final year of weddings, we had the pleasure of photographing our dear friend’s Pender Island wedding at Poets Cover resort.

It was our first time visiting Pender Island and it did not disappoint. There’s something about small islands, where the time slows down and nothing feels as rushed as in the city. (Except maybe when you have to catch the ferry to get back to Vancouver ;). Better not miss that one.)

Both Jeanine and Carmen are beyond doubt the fittest people I know, so it was fitting they started the day off with a not-so easy hike. Jelger and I joined the fun later on when it was time to get ready. The duo planned to take som photos together before the wedding, with a small block of extra photo time during the sunset. (always a good plan!) That way they didn’t have to abandon their guests. Some guests had traveled all the way from the Philipines to be there with them!

Adorable puppy Froja definitely stole the show. She did so well during the ceremony!

Basically this wedding truly had it all: the island vibes, great company, games (the giant jenga was so fun!), live music, the cutest puppy, amazing food, a gorgeous sunset… Certainly a day to never forget. 🙂

Thanks you two for trusting us to photograph you day! And cheers to much more Belgian food together
