john michaels banquet wedding in Thorold

John Michaels Wedding | Kristy and Paul

In late September, I had the honor of capturing Kristy and Paul's wedding at John Michael's Banquet & Event Centre in Niagara. It was a beautiful fall day with the sun shining and the temperature feeling like it was still summer.


My day began with Kristy and her girls getting ready in Vineland. She looked beautiful in her dress and everyone was so excited to get the day started. We set off to the canal in St Catharines to capture the first look. Paul's face lit up when he turned around and saw Kristy for the first time. This spot held sentimental value for them as well with a touching memorial of Paul's mother there.


Our next stop was Niagara Falls, where a special memorial for Kristy's late father is located right by the waterfall. With the falls as a breathtaking backdrop, we grabbed a couple of photos there. Then, we set off to the Botanical Gardens with the wedding party. The hour we were there was filled with constant laughs from Paul and the wedding party.


We then headed to the beautiful gardens at John Michael's for their outdoor ceremony. Once it finished we headed inside for the reception. John Michaels has a reputation for incredible food and once again it lived up to it with an antipasto bar and dinner that exceeded expectations. The evening sparkled with laughter, heartfelt speeches, and fantastic dancing. Congratulations you two!
