August 8, 2026 — Port Moody

Some weddings take you on a little tour of a whole town — and Karen & Yan's did exactly that. A church ceremony, portraits in two of Port Moody's prettiest spots, and a reception at Site B to finish the day. Port Moody showed off from start to finish.

The Day: August 8, 2026

The Ceremony

The day began with a church ceremony — timeless, emotional, and full of the people who matter most to these two.

Portraits: Dogwood Pavilion & Rocky Point Park

Then we took the portraits on a Port Moody tour of our own: first Dogwood Pavilion, then Rocky Point Park, with the water, the trees, and that soft coastal light doing what they always do. Two locations, two completely different moods — and Karen & Yan were radiant in both.

The Reception: Site B

The celebration moved to Site B in Port Moody for dinner, speeches, and dancing — the kind of room where the party builds all evening and nobody wants it to end.

Karen & Yan — thank you for trusting me with your day, from the church to the park to the dance floor. 🤍
