Wedding on the mountain

Catherine and David had an absolutely beautiful wedding. The day was perfect. Everyone rode the ski lift up to the top of Fernie's ski hill and after a short hike the ceremony took place in an open field that was just amazing. The only hitch to the day was when it was realized that the flowers were still at the house. So two of the guests took the lift down, got the flowers and came back up the lift. Life is like that, if you expect the ceremony to be perfect and therefore the marriage to be perfect then you might be disappointed. This little hiccup in their ceremony only means that there will be hiccups during the marriage. This too shall pass.
The rest of the day went off without a hitch. The only rain that we saw was while traveling to different photo locations. Island Lake Lodge was absolutely beautiful. The waterfalls were absolutely beautiful. The reception, a lot of fun. It was, in short, a wonderful day spent with a wonderful couple.
Although I am still working on their images to be posted for all guests to see, and will post a few here and on my website and on my facebook site and probably on flickr as well. We have created a lasting memory that Catherine and David will have for many years to come.
