The past 18 months have been all about adapting - wedding planners and couples, I see you. While weddings are one of the many things that have been impacted and changed since the pandemic, the truth is, we are constantly adapting, growing, and changing. Emma and Wayne’s Pitt Meadows wedding was adapted to the restrictions during the third wave of the pandemic in May, and it was beautiful and perfect for everyone. They chose the stunning Alouette River area of Pitt Meadows and it did not disappoint.

There is something special about a blended family because there is an exceptional amount of love and coordination that goes into them. It’s not just your and your partner’s lives you’re impacting, it’s everyone involved, and it’s a lot to take on from any angle you look at it. I’m lucky enough to be in a wonderful situation where my kids and my bonus kids (my partner’s kids) get along really well. But, this isn’t always the case, and that’s okay!

At Emma and Wayne’s wedding, Emma made a heartwarming point of saying her vows to her new stepson. This was a beautiful gesture and a loving start to their new normal together. I wish this growing family all the best and am excited to see where their adventures take them in the future.
