Tia & Josh - Smoky & Stunning Cold Lake Wedding


Tia and Josh’s wedding day was nothing short of unforgettable. Amongst the trees in Cold Lake Provincial Park, their wedding unfolded under a smoky haze from nearby wildfires—creating an ethereal, moody atmosphere that made for some truly breathtaking photos. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, they celebrated their love in a way that was heartfelt, cozy, and uniquely them.


A Wedding Day Wrapped in Love & Hazy Skies

Despite the smoky skies, nothing could dim the joy of Tia and Josh’s wedding day. Their ceremony took place in Cold Lake Provincial Park, a beautiful spot nestled in nature. The soft haze added an almost cinematic feel to the moment as they exchanged vows, making their "I dos" feel even more intimate and special.


After the ceremony, we ventured down to the shores of Cold Lake for their wedding portraits. The misty, golden light filtering through the smoke created a soft, dreamy glow. With the calm water stretching behind them and the gentle waves lapping at the shore, it was the perfect setting to capture their newlywed bliss.


A Cozy Backyard Reception by the Water

Following their portraits, Tia and Josh hosted an intimate backyard reception at their waterfront home. String lights, laughter, and the warmth of family and friends made the evening feel like pure magic. Guests gathered around, sharing stories, enjoying delicious food, and celebrating the start of Tia and Josh’s new adventure together.
