Fall Wedding at the Baron in Calgary
Sonja & Aaron got married under the cloudy fall sky of Calgary. They had a beautiful ceremony at their home to begin their day and finalized their vows in front of their guests at the Baron in Calgary. Read the rest of the story below!
Their Story
First look at the Couple’s House
We started the day off at Sonja & Aaron’s house where Sonja was waiting for Aaron to arrive. We were greeted by a huge and adorable Freja, the couple’s furry baby! Aaron arrived and saw Sonja for the first time. They greeted each other with a huge hug and a long smooch! Tamara Jones completed their legal marriage ceremony at their house. It was witnessed by some of their closest friend and family members. October 14th last year also happened to be the 1 year anniversary of their possession of their home so it was a reason for double the celebration. We took one photo of the couple outside their house to commemorate this occasion.
The Family Photos at Prince’s Island Park
Following the legal marriage ceremony, we went out and photographed the couple and their family members at the Prince’s Island Park. We got some gorgeous family photos for the couple with a brilliant yellow and orange backdrop of the fall foliage. This is one singular reason why we love the fall colors for weddings. We created a special photograph for Aaron and his brother that is reminiscent of their graduation!
The Creative Formals at Prince’s Island Park and Peace Bridge
After completing the family formals, we photographed the couple and wedding party for their creative formals. The creative formals are by far our favorite part of the day as we get to create some epic portraits for the couple that they get to have for the rest of their lives! For Aaron and Sonja we used the beautiful fall foliage colors and the bow river to create some gorgeous photographs. We also got a chance to take some really neat photographs at the Peace Bridge.
Second Ceremony at the Baron
The couple had a second ceremony that was officiated by their friend Nathaniel Sarabura who had come from out of town to join them for their wedding. The ceremony was held at the Baron where the couple tied the knot in front of all of their guests and family members. It was quite emotional as at one point Sonja started crying during the vows. I may and or may not have been crying while taking the photos myself…

Decoration by Sonja & Aaron
The reception was held at the Baron as well. The staff at the Baron did such an amazing job overhauling the venue for the reception in such a short period of time. The reception started off with the couple entering to some epic music followed by a delicious dinner prepared by the staff at the Baron! Following the dinner, the best man and the maid of honor gave some heart-wrenching toasts that brought tears of joy and bouts of laughter on the couple’s faces. Finally, the parents of the couple gave some wonderful toasts as well celebrating the couple’s marriage.
First Dance!
The couple began their first dance to Van Morrison’s Crazy love and showed their guests what a first dance should look like! It was epic to photograph the couple dancing. Sonja & Aaron were then joined by their parents on the dance floor for the father daughter dance and the mother son dance! Eventually, the party started and everyone was on the dancefloor celebrating the coupel’s union! We got a chance to take some epic pictures of Sonja dancing the night away with her bridesmaids!
Bouqet & Garter Toss!
How would a wedding be complete without the pre-requisite hilariousness that follows the bouquet and garter toss? We photographed as people leaped into the air to grab the bouquet. Check out some of these epic photos below!
