  3. Check availability early – The best wedding venues in Calgary book up quickly, especially for summer weekends.
  4. Ask about vendor restrictions – Some venues require you to use their preferred vendors or charge fees for bringing in outside services.
  5. Consider transportation – Think about how easy it will be for guests to reach your venue, especially those from out of town.
  6. Review your contract carefully – Understand what’s included in your package and any additional costs you might incur.

Nicole & Jon’s Wedding at Windermere Golf & Country Club

Dubue Wedding at Windermere Golf & Country Club

A Fall Wedding Like No Other!

“Then love knew it was called love.
And when I lifted my eyes to your name,
suddenly your heart showed me my way”  ― Pablo Neruda

The Wedding Slideshow

Above is the beautiful wedding slideshow I created for Jon & Nicole. It was created from a selection of photos that tell the story of the couple’s wedding day.

Their Story!

Here is a link to the couple’s engagement session:

  • Dubue engagement session at the Old Arts Building, University of Alberta, Edmonton

    Dubue’s Engagement Session at The University of Alberta

    First Impressions "You are my today, and all of my tomorrows." -Leo Christopher THE ENGAGEMENT RING AND HOW THEY MET The idea of love, at first sight, is delightful. And sometimes it is just familiarity, where one soul recognizes another and calls it home. For Jonathan and Nicole, the familiarity turned into something lasting. Their [...]

First Look at the Windermere Golf & Country Club

These two adorable humans asked me to photograph their wedding almost 1.5 years ago! Since then, I have thought about how I will make sure I tell their story and do it justice! I want to share some of the photos from their wedding day in this blog and I am so excited for the Jon & Nicole!

We started the day off with photographing Jon and some of his groomsmen at the Windermere Golf & Country Club, Edmonton. While we were waiting for Nicole to arrive, me and Alaa (my second photographer) scouted some of the locations around the golf club for the first look!

First Look: https://www.brides.com/story/brides-reveal-pros-cons-of-first-look-wedding-photos

Once Nicole arrived, the couple did their first look and let me tell, it was a tear jerker! I must have teared up a few times. It was a beautiful and emotional moment. Jon, being the softie, was tearing up right as Nicole was walking up to him.

Ceremony at the Windermere Golf & Country Club, Edmonton

The couple was joined by their family and loved ones for a beautiful ceremony. One of the most memorable moments for me from the ceremony was the vows where Jon told Nicole about how he started writing his vows the day he met Nicole. THIS WAS WHERE THE FLOOD GATES OPENED! The ceremony was led by Naomi Tichkowsky.

Family Photos at the Windermere Golf & Country Club

After the ceremony, we did family photos at the Golf Club and the beautiful grounds. We got some awesome photos of the Nicole & Jon with their parents, sibblings and friends.

Reception at the Golf Club

After the family photos, the couple had arranged a luncheon reception. During the reception, the had a few games, speeches and a personalized newspaper that announced their wedding. The reception was catered and organized by the excellent staff at the Windermere Golf & Country Club.

Creative Formals at the Alfred H. Savage Centre

One of my favorite parts of the wedding is the creative formals. Here, the wedding party and me go to a cool location and take some posed and life-style photos. For Nicole & Jon, we went to the Alfred H. Savage Centre. It has some awesome scenery around the area that made for fantastic fall backdrops. At one point during the photos, two random strangers showed up with electric scooters. Well, me being me, I asked to borrow the scooter for the couple and we go some adorable photos 😀

Online Gallery

An online gallery of all their images is available for the next 90 days. From the online gallery you are able to favourite images, order prints and share the gallery with your family and friends. The gallery can be accessed via the link below and you can contact the couple directly for their secure password.

It was amazing to work with BRIDE & GROOM on their wedding day and we are honored to have been a part of their story! You can check out the rest of our work on our blog.

End of the World & Love!

Engagement Session at End Of The World Edmonton

engagement session at end fo the world, edmonton

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way than this:

where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep. ”
― Pablo Neruda

THE ENGAGEMENT RING AND HOW THEY MET

Hockey happens to be both a favorite past time for Canadians as well as a pathway for love! Neda and Nathan met playing hockey year and years ago! This adorable couple went for their first date to the River Valley and it was also the place where Nathan proposed. Obviously, it was the ideal choice for the engagmeent photos as well!

It was an extremely chilly day wtih temperatures around -20 but Neda and Nathan braved the elements and we were able to create some awesome artwork for the couple! We also went down to the End of the World which has one of the most unique view of the Sasketchwan River (albeit it was frozen when we went there).

It was amazing to work with Neda & Nathan for their engagement session! You can check out the rest of our work on our blog!

How To Clean Your Engagement Ring! (And Why!)

How To Clean Your Engagement Ring! (And Why!)

You remember the feeling you had when you first saw him go down on one knee and open that little box in front of you? (no not the box of pizza! the ring box!!) Well, your ring looked beautiful and gorgeous when you first put it on!

It also helps your wedding photographer take amazing photos of your wedding and engagement rings if you clean them beforehand.

As is the habit of things worn, they get dirty and grimy over time! I wanted to create a little guide for you to clean your engagement (or wedding) ring! Now before we jump into what to do, I want to mention what not to do:

  1. DON’T use household cleaners like bleach, cleaning, and acetone. These chemicals are active chemicals that can damage the metals or react with them!
  2. DON’T use abrasives such as toothpaste, baking soda or any powdered cleaners. These abrasives can easily scratch soft metals like gold.
  3. There are exceptions to these rules that I will outline below!

The easiest way to clean your ring is to use a solution of warm water (almost hot) and dishwashing soap. You can then soak your ring in the solution for 20 to 40 minutes depending on how dirty the ring is. You can also use a very soft toothbrush to clean out any grime sitting in hidden and tight spots! Rinse your ring thoroughly after you have cleaned your ring. It is important to ensure that you remove all signs of soap water from the metal surfaces.

Special Solutions:

  1. Silver & Gold + Diamond Ring:
    Make 50% Windex & 50% Hydrogen Peroxide solution and soak your ring in the solution for 10-15 minutes. The Windex will help remove any day to day grime while the hydrogen peroxide will kill any remaining bacteria! After soaking, remove any residue by using a soft toothbrush and ring with lukewarm water.
  2. Silver + Diamond Ring:
    Make a solution of 1/2c Cup of Vinegar and 2 Tablespoons of Baking soda. Soak your diamond and silver engagement or wedding ring in the solution for 2-3 hours. Then finally rinse your ring with cold water and dry with a lint-free cloth.
  3. Silver + Diamond Ring – Bring the Shine Back:
    Soak your wedding ring in a bowl of ketchup and let it sit for a few minutes. Then use a very soft toothbrush to move the ketchup into the crevices of the ring. Leave the ring for a few minutes and then ring with warm water to get a shiny new ring!

I hope this guide helps you bring back the shine to your ring! Let me know if you have any other tips that you think we should add to this guide! Here are some more cool ring shots from the wedding and engagements we have photographed for you to enjoy!

The Deans’s Wedding at Edmonton’s Radisson Hotel & Convention Centre // Edmonton Wedding Photographers

wedding photos at alberta legislature building, edmonton

Summer Wedding for an amazing couple!

Shamalla & Mark Getting Ready

We consider ourselves storytellers and as such we like photographing every element of the day. This starts off with us photographing the bride and groom as they get ready during the early part of the day. This makes for an amazing album that feels like a storybook when the couple looks back at it 10 years down the road.

The Guys Getting Ready

We first photographed Mark & his groomsman at their beautiful house in Edmonton. All of them extremely handsome in their tailored suits and pink ties! Mark himself was wearing a black bow tie which is a classic tradition.

The Girls Getting Ready

After we photographed Mark, we traveled to Shamalla’s place where she was getting ready. She wore a trendy rose colored gown that looked absolutely stunning on her. Her bridesmaids and her flower girl helped her get ready.

Their Ceremony at Evangelical Lutheran Church

We went to the Evangelical Luther Church in Edmonton to photograph the couple’s beautiful ceremony. It was a tradition Christian ceremony where the bride and groom exchanged vows and committed their lives together. The church had a very vintage rustic look that looks great in the photos!

The Family Photos at Evangelical Lutheran Church

Following the ceremony, we photographed the couple and their family in the foyer of the church. The foyer was very well lit with natural light that allowed us to capture some amazing portraits of the couple and family members.

The Creative Formals at Alberta Legislature Building

Every wedding day includes bridal portraits or formals. This is the part where we take the couple and the bridal party to a beautiful location and photograph them. These photos are timeless and romantic. They are usually a huge part of the wedding story.

The Dean’s Reception at Radisson Hotel & Convention Centre

The Dinner provided by the talented culinary staff at Radisson Hotel & Convention Centre

Decoration by Lulu

The reception of the wedding was held at the Radisson Hotel & Convention Centre, Edmonton. The staff there had prepared an amazing meal that looked and tasted equally great. The Chef, Fabian, had done an excellent job of creating some of the tastiest food that we have ever tried. It was a buffet style meal that was complemented with equally delicious dessert.

Cutting the beautiful cake

The couple opted for a multi-cake arrangement rather than going with a single large cake. The cake itself looked delicious with white fondant and silver studs on the outside. The wedding at the Radisson Hotel & Convention centre was only topped by the cake at the wedding itself!

First Dance!

The couple danced together for their first dance. They had a choreographed dance which looked really amazing! They were then joined by the rest of their family and loved ones on the dance floor. The DJ had some great tunes going including some ethnic ones that got everyone going. At one point, our Second Shooter Jeremy was himself on the dance floor!

The Dean Wedding Day Slideshow

Above is the beautiful Wedding Slideshow that came with Shamalla & Mark’s wedding package. It was created from a selection of their best photos.

It was amazing to work with Mark & Shamalla on their wedding day and we can’t be more excited to share their final images with them in the coming weeks! You can check out the rest of our work at our <a href=”https://boxcubephoto.com/edmonton-wedding-photographer-blog/”>blog!</a>

THEIR STORY!

Have you seen high school sweethearts? Well here is an adorable couple for your afternoon craving for romance <3.  This couple (Unnati & Dhrupad) met in high school via a mutual friend and have been dating each for the last 8 years.

After Dhrupad and Unnati ended up on a cruise together to Mexico last year, they decided it was time to tie the knot. Given that they both love food and life in general, the didn’t need much else in common. Also, one of them is an engineer and the other a nurse, Ill let you guess who is who.

I met this couple after they came across a photo I took for Tooba & Shahmeran’s Wedding. After our first meeting at a coffee shop, I knew I wanted to tell this couple’s story and I am glad I got the chance!

As Dhrupad hadn’t technically proposed to Unnati, I helped him setup the proposal by distracting Unnati during the photo shoot and letting Dhrupad sneak in behind her and get on his knee. It was adorable to see this happening!

We start the session at Muttart Conservatory and then as it got progressively colder, we move to El Cortez. El Cortez (Mexican Restaurant) happens to one of my favorite places for both food and photography so we were able to create some amazing artwork there! Check this cool wedding that I photographed at this place as well!

Bitten by the travel bug, my dream now is to photograph love on every corner of the earth! If you are an adventurous soul who yearns to create some amazing photographs, contact me and we will have some cool adventures together! PS We will also have amazing coffee and food to plan out the adventure first!

Vintage Wedding? Cute Couple? Amazing Party? You got it! Wedding at The Country Lodge: Polish Veterans Hall

Stephen & Nicolle’s wedding at Edmonton Radial Railway Society was a vintage yet stylish affair. When I met this couple, they told me that they were gonna get married on top of a bridge in the middle of Saskatchewan River in a Rail Car. In my mind I said “holy crap….”. I am so glad they chose me to be a part of their amazing day! Their reception was at the Country Lodge and it was an equally amazing affair!

First Look at Edmonton Street Car Barn

As soon as we finished the first look ceremony, we started photographing the bride and groom around the Edmonton Street Car Barn. We created some very cool portraits against the huge green doors.

Since we were all hungry and in need for liquid encouragement due to the cold weather, we went to this amazing restaurant called El Cortez near Strathcona! The manager was so accommodating and allowed us to create some amazing artwork for the couple.

Karpan’s Wedding at Sherbrooke Community League, Edmonton

Kimberly & Marko’s Wedding at Sherbrooke Community League, Edmonton | Edmonton Wedding Photographers

A Flowery Wedding at Sherbrooke Community League Center, Edmonton, AB

Kimberly is an amazing florist who often works with us as a preferred vendor. She is able to create amazing floral designs for her clients. You can checkout her work HERE. When Kimberly contacted me to photograph her wedding, I was beyond excited! I could not wait to see the kind of flowers that would be used on a florists wedding. Well to say that I was impressed would be an understatement. Don’t believe me? Check out he slideshow above to see some of the amazing florals present at Kimberly & Marko’s wedding.

The Karpan’s Same Day Slideshow

The Reception slideshow above is included in everyone one of our wedding collections and is very well loved by both family and friends. It is composed of a selection of photos from the time the bride and groom are getting ready to the ceremony, family formals and creative formals. It is presented in a classic black and white video format that we show during the reception on a projector and  a screen we bring along with us. We also upload the same slideshow the very next day to our blog for everyone to enjoy while we edit and prepare the wedding day images.

Their story <3 – Engagement Session

I photographed Kimberly & Marko on Kimberly’s family farm for their engagement session a few weeks ago. You can read the story of this cute couple and see their engagement photo right here: Karpan’s Engagement Session

Groom Getting Ready:

We photographed the groom getting ready with his amazing groomsmen. They all Croatian socks and shared a serbian drink (except the underage one of course! :P).

Bride Getting Ready:

Following the groom, we photographed the bride getting ready. She told us this amazing story about the green toy car you see above. She told us that it was a toy car that her grandpa gave to her when she was a child. It was an emotional story and I could not help but photograph such an important part of the bride’s story! Both the bride and groom’s family were very love and family value oriented!

Ceremony at Sherbrook Community League, Edmonton

Among other understatements, here is one: the ceremony was emotional! There were tears of joy! Both from the bride and groom and their respective families. Marko was crying when Kimberly walked in and it was the cutest thing I have seen at a wedding. Kimberly on the other hand was crying during ceremony. One of the younger groomsmen actually sang a song for the bride and groom and it was heartwrenchingly emotional. He was crying while singing it and I couldn’t help but wipe a tear or two as well! This was an amazing privelege to photograph!

Family Photos:

Following the ceremony, we photographed the couple with their family. Mark, the EPS office photographed above was unable to take a day off for his sister in law’s wedding. Therefore, he came out during his shift briefly to be a part of his family’s big day! Thus we got a cool shot of the bride and groom with the police cruiser :D!

Creative Formals at the Muttart Conservatory:

I pride myself in my ability to create artwork for couple I photograph. This is what I have tried to achieve with the above shown photographs! It was perfect weather and lighting conditions at Muttart Conservatory, Edmonton for these photographs!

We were so fortunate to be a part Kimberly & Marko’s wedding. It was an absolute honor to be a part of their day!

Edmonton Videographers – Featured Vendor – YEG Wedding Video

edmonton wedding videographers

We often work with other vendors and we recommend them based on the quality of their services. This help us provide an entire stress-free experience to our clients. This includes recommending vendors that the clients may be in need of. We often do short interviews with those vendors to ensure our clients know who they might be dealing with.

Sam & Justin with YEG Wedding Video are an amazing duo who have the magic of videography down to the last bit. They are edmonton wedding videographers. Here is a sample of some of their work and a short interview of these two awesome dudes.

You can check out the rest of their wedding work out here: http://www.yegweddingvideo.com/#intro

 

https://vimeo.com/175603697

How did you get started?

We are a team of two videographers. We first shot a wedding video for a friend of ours who asked us to. Once we released the video, people started inquiring and as they say the rest is history.

Tell me about your favorite wedding last season.

Our very first wedding was our favorite of last year – baseball themed wedding, beautiful bride and groom and just a lot of fun. We didn’t know what to expect coming in as it was our first time shooting a wedding but we left and we knew this is what we wanted to do. It was amazing!

How far out should a bride pay a deposit to secure your services for her wedding day?

We are booking a year ahead of time as of right now.

What is included when a couple books your services for their wedding?

We offer two main packages: Package A and Package B. However, we offer the option to customize both our packages.
These packages come with a variety of features including two-cameras, GoPro, Drone aerial shots and lapel microphones.

How do you help couples customize their wedding?

We can offer extra coverage, more videographers, Go Pro footage, extra days and even special aerial drone coverage.

What is one interesting fact about your services?

Besides the fact we are only one of the very few certified companies that offer aerial drone footage for weddings, we love attending rehearsals. We make sure we can attend the rehearsals so that we get the best angles to capture your special day. We like to get to know our clients so that we can make their video personalized to who they are.

What do you have planned for the future?

We want to continue to grow as a business and wedding videographers. We would like to grow our team and offer the best wedding videography service in Alberta.

How many people can you accommodate? (i.e bridal party makeup)

We have captured venues up to 500 people and also weddings of 50-100. We are able to accommodate our services to any size of wedding.

What makes your services unique?

A lot of wedding videos are sappy and sad; not us. We are unique in that we customize our videos based on your personality. It’s your wedding day, it’s fun and exciting and our aim is to capture that in as many ways possible.

How long has this business been a part of the community?

2 years doing weddings, 3 years as a video production company.

Who would be the best person to contact if a couple wants to book your services?

Pinup Wedding Reception at Windsor Estates

You know when you walk into the diner and see the cutest family where the siblings help each other, the mother and father love their family and each other and it all looks like the happiest bunch! That was Joe & Benjamin. This family that consists of 6 family members and lots of love was absolutely amazing to photograph. I documented their wedding day on July 23rd, 2016. Starting early in the morning with Joe & Benjamin as they got ready, we photographed them throughout their wedding day.

The Balsa’s Same Day Slideshow

The Reception slideshow above is included in everyone one of our wedding collections and is very well loved by both family and friends. It is composed of a selection of photos from the time the bride and groom are getting ready to the ceremony, family formals and creative formals. It is presented in a classic black and white video format that we show during the reception on a projector and  a screen we bring along with us. We also upload the same slideshow the very next day to our blog for everyone to enjoy while we edit and prepare the wedding day images.

Groom Getting Ready

The groom (Benjamin) got ready at his parent’s house and he looked stunning! He was accompanied by his best man Jayson who helped him get ready!

Bride Getting Ready

edmonton-wedding-photographer-hastings-lake-gardens-box-cube-photography 4

You know there is a certain charm to photographing the details of the bride’s jewelry and dress as seen here! Her dress was a pinup style simple but elegant piece of craftsmanship.
edmonton-wedding-photographer-hastings-lake-gardens-box-cube-photography 5

You know there are tears on their way when you see the bride giving a gift to her mother in law and her maid of honor. This is exactly what happened here! edmonton-wedding-photographer-hastings-lake-gardens-box-cube-photography 6

It would be an understatement if I were to say that the members of this family just love each other; look at this cute photo of the mother of the groom and the bride!

Kill will be kids

edmonton-wedding-photographer-hastings-lake-gardens-box-cube-photography 7

Because, kids getting ready for a wedding is a thing of its own. They play game on their Nintendo DS followed by fighting with their shoes to put them on. The photo above of Joe & Tera where Joe is holding her hair was a very funny and cute moment where Tera refused to let Joe do her hair and kept making Pokemon like sounds. She was one of the flower girls of the ceremony and the bride’s eldest daughter!

Family photos at Windsor Estates

edmonton-wedding-photographer-hastings-lake-gardens-box-cube-photography 8

The family photos were captured at the Groom’s parent beautiful house in the Windsor Estates and this house has been in the process of building for the last 20 years as the couple wanted to build it themselves! It looks absolutely stunning!

Wedding Ceremony at the Hastings Lake Gardens, Edmonton

Joe & Benjamin had one of the fastest and shortest ceremony I have ever seen! It was extremely cute and all the guests were happy to be there for this adorable couple! Their exit was decorated with flower petals as you can see in the photo above! The wedding at Hastings lake gardens was absolutely beautiful. Following the ceremony, we were able to use the nearby locations for some great creative formals!

Creative formals at Hastings Lake Gardens & an old church!
