In the height of summer in Prince Edward Island, Islanders and visitors alike flock to the historic fishing village of Victoria-by-the-Sea for the stunning vistas, charming shops, and rolling hills in vibrant green.
Built in 1877, The Grand Victorian, a beautifully restored Gothic Revival masterpiece, provides the vintage elegance inspiration for this styled shoot.
For a wedding befitting a Victorian-era heroine, the grandeur of the venue finds its match in the simplicity of natural elements and heirloom pieces. The brides look stunning in hand-selected vintage wedding dresses. The harvest table is set with vintage milk glass vases and century-old medicine bottles styled with local wildflowers. The understated bouquets suggest an evening stroll through fields in late summer.
In the words of beloved author L.M. Montgomery, "There is so much in the world for us all if we only have the eyes to see it, and the heart to love it".
