With just 23 dys left before our big day, Ryan and I ventured out to the little town of Baxter, ON to get our marriage license. Why? do you ask would we drive 20 mins out of the way to buy what we can buy just 5 mins from our house? Our amazing efficient Tom Cooke (Please contact me for his contact details, if you are getting married you need to consider using Tom Cooke.) told us that we would get a better rate on our marriage license if we went to the little tiny town of Baxter. He was right, we saved $40, and only had to wait 15 mins for them to process the license. In Barrie, it takes longer and costs more. When it comes to wedding planning you really have to save your money for the things you really, really value. Now don’t get us wrong, we value the legality of having a marriage license, but the truth is that Barrie doesn’t offer anything different for $40 more. So why waste the money?

For Ryan this was a truly momentous day, he gained yet another license haha! If you know Ryan he is a collector of licenses. Mostly for things he doesn’t do but is just interested in. His list of licenses now include a license to wed.

A few weeks ago we traveled to Ottawa to photograph Melissa & Adam’s Ottawa engagement session. They had this super cool baby blue classic Ford pickup and this sweet rustic barn for us to shoot in and of course it poured rain the whole time and was freezing cold for the entire shoot. Melissa & Adam were amazing to work with, they even braved the rain for a few shots next to the pick up! Check out some of their barn themed Ottawa engagement shoot.

Thanks Adam & Melissa for an awesome engagement shoot, we are so excited for the wedding. Fingers crossed for no rain.

Cheers

& Ryan
