Lior + Steve

From the very beginning, the vision for this wedding was something out of a European summer. Think romantic garden party, candlelit details, soft hydrangeas, endless greenery, and the timeless charm of an old-world villa. Inspired by the gardens and architecture of the Italian countryside and the south of France, they wanted a celebration that felt elegant, intimate, and full of beautiful details.

Sandpiper Resort was the perfect setting to bring that vision to life. The property has such a special charm, with its beautiful greenery, winding paths, and the character of the historic inn. The overall aesthetic was elegant without feeling overly polished, creating that lovely balance between a European garden party and the relaxed beauty of the West Coast.

While the aesthetic was undeniably beautiful, it was the meaning woven throughout the ceremony that made the day so personal. Lior and Steve brought together their Jewish, Chinese, and Canadian heritage in a celebration that honoured the traditions and people who shaped their lives.

I'm also so excited that this celebration was also featured in WedVibes, an international wedding publication, which makes getting to revisit and share these memories even more special.

It was such a joy to document a wedding with such a beautiful sense of style, culture, and connection. A little European romance, a beautiful forested setting, and a day filled with so much love. Sandpiper Resort, you were a dream!
