Kassie and Tyler are nature lovers and what better place to have their wedding than the rustic setting of Silver Lake Forestry Camp near Peachland, BC. In spite of wishing that I had remembered the bug repellant after bumping up the unpaved road to the camp, it was delightful to get away from the heat of the day and into the cool tranquility of the forest. Guests were seated on wooden benches surrounded by shady trees with the lake just a short path away. Kassie was beautiful in a dress lovingly made by her mother and in spite of the casual surroundings, the guys showed up very dapper in their wedding suits. Kassie's baby brother added a little unexpected extra to the sounds of nature around us and happily exercised his own vocal cords as the ceremony unfolded. This was all part of the special ambience. A moment of significance happened as we waited for the bridal party to proceed down the path. One of the guests remarked on a tree that was directly behind the platform where the ceremony took place. When looking at the base of the trunk you could see that this tree had actually started out as 2 separate trees and the trunks had twisted gracefully together over time to become one whole tree. We all thought this was rather profound and a special symbol for the wedding couple. Best wishes for a long and happy life as you contiue to grow together, Tyler and Kassie!
