Madi and Carter | Married A Stonefields Estate Wedding

Madi and Carter’s Stonefields Estate wedding was one to remember! Not just because everything looked beautiful and the venue staff were amazing, but because of that amazing feeling of LOVE everywhere! Their wedding party was one of the nicest I’ve ever met. Each person obviously cared so deeply about their friendships, and did everything they could to help out. And you could tell that Madi and Carter really appreciated all of the people who came. At one point during the reception the guests were having such a great time that almost 1/3 of the full dining room broke out into song together, toasting the happy couple. Their parents were so proud of all the couple has accomplished together. And Madi and Carter couldn’t keep their eyes off each other. It was perfect!

The venue was a nice continuation of the rustic theme of their engagement portrait session we’d done last fall in Ottawa. All the key events of the day took place at Stonefields Estate, where thankfully the air conditioning was going full blast. It was a hot one! The guys got ready at the Badchild pub, gearing up for the day with a cool beer and plenty of jokes. The ladies were next door in the charming farmhouse, which has so many incredible options for getting ready. Madi shared a first look with her dad which turned into an emotion moment for both of them. And then it was time for the walk down the aisle!

They opted to use the indoor ceremony house. With storm clouds on the horizon and temperatures reaching close to forty degrees, that turned out to be a good call! The ceremony house is a beautiful white stained A-frame building. A stunning floral arrangement by Riverwood Gardens, who did all the flowers for the day, brought in their blue wedding colour. Their officiant stood for much of the ceremony with her back to the guests, which allowed Madi and Carter to face everyone who’d gathered to witness their vows. Their words to each other were endearing, and Madi especially had to fight tears while speaking them.

Rain threatened on and off, but the wedding party were not deterred! The cocktail patio at Stonefields is largely covered, giving the guests plenty of shelter from the light rain. It didn’t last long, though, and we had plenty of time for portraits. The sun came out later and Madi and Carter ducked out of their reception for a few minutes for some amazing golden hour shots.

Madi and Carter, I hope you’re enjoying your honeymoon! Here are a few images to bring you back to your wedding day.
