<br />
We were so very thrilled to receive the gorgeous wedding of Kelly & David from<a href="http://tandshughesphotography.com/blog/" target="_blank"> <i><span style="color: #45818e;">T&S Hughes Photography</span></i>,</a> and we could barely contain ourselves to save it until March 1st! We loved their wedding so much, that we made Kelly our Covergirl for our first USA issue!<br />
<br />
Can we just get an 'Ooh and Aah' for her gown, his style, those florals, the bridesmaids - the dinner! <i>Well, just everything?</i><br />
<br />
Take a peek at their whole love story in the newest issue over at: <a href="http://www.therefinerymag.com/"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">www.therefinerymag.com</span></i></a><br />

When Blair dropped us an email a few months back to see if we would be interested in doing some collaborations, we instantly jumped at the opportunity! We have loved following this up and coming Calgarian Photographer, and <i><span style="color: #45818e;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Blair-Marie-Photography/159219350778470?fref=ts" target="_blank"><span style="color: #45818e;">Blair Marie Photography</span></a> </span></i>is quickly making waves in the indie wedding photography crowd in central Canada. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Our mission for Blair was to capture a simple and sweet Valentines "at home" date that any couple could execute. Not only that, we wanted to show that this could be done at any time of year, and that any night is a great excuse for a dinner date for two.</div>

<br />
On Valentines Day of 2014 there was plenty of love in the air! From the abundance of engagements and weddings that happened around town, to the launch of the newest issue of <a href="http://www.therefinerymag.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">The Refinery Magazine</span></i></a>, there was plenty of love-ly inspiration to be had!<br />
<br />
Part of that inspiration was the addition of our new regular contributors <a href="http://www.bestdayevervan.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Chelsey & Dene of Best Day Ever Creative Events</i></span></a>!

<i><b>From Chelsey & Dene, at Best Day Ever Creative Events:</b></i><br />
<br />
We’re sure most of you can relate to having to embrace a bridesmaid look that just isn’t quite you. You don’t hate it (ok, maybe you do), but the dress just doesn’t quite flatter your figure and definitely doesn’t fall in line with your personal style. No offense brides, we know it’s your day and you should have the ultimate say, but wouldn’t you rather know that your girls not only look, but also feel amazing standing up there next to you?<br />
<br />
Of course, there’s always the fear that if each bridesmaid wears a different dress, different jewelry and carries a slightly different bouquet, the wedding party isn’t going to look like they are part of the same wedding. That is simply not the case!<br />
<br />
It’s important to incorporate a few common elements so that the looks do come together in a really beautiful and cohesive way. Unify the bridesmaids with your colour palette of choice, a consistent makeup look and bouquets that use similar blooms while still allowing your girls’ personal styles and personalities to shine through.<br />
<br />
Our line-up of ladies included the ‘girl next door’, ‘rocker’, ‘boho beauty’, ‘free spirit’ and ‘glam girl’. With a colour palette of cobalt and navy blues, we visited local bridal shops and fashion boutiques on the hunt for dresses that complimented each girl and hinted at their unique individual styles. And, we didn’t stop at attire; what really brings these looks full circle is tying in jewelry selection, floral bouquets flawlessly designed by The Flower Factory and the perfect hair and unifying makeup (which in this case featured a bold oxblood lip). A matching oxblood nail polish from lacc, found at Shut Up I Love This, was a natural choice, not only because the colour matched the lip perfectly, but because this pretty polish is also vegan and paraben free.<br />
<br />
There’s no doubt that playing on each girl’s individual style and finding unique pieces from local boutiques around the city can all come together in a really amazing way. Here’s to doing things a little differently!<br />

<br />
The adventure issue was packed with with gorgeous inspiration, and we wanted to share more here on the blog, photographed by the incredible <a href="http://www.marielhannahblog.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">Mariel Hannah Photography</span></i></a>. We fell in love with this lovely Californian photographer when we first came across her work in summer 2013. When we began planning the special edition, we knew that we wanted to feature California - a place where we have several family and friend ties, and a place where our ginger freckles come out to play!<br />
<br />
We dropped Mariel a line, and we got to work on creating a feature that would focus on a taste of the California wine country, a place where many can tie the knot under a faux italian sun. We asked Mariel to bring together a team that would inspire brides to add a splash of spanish flair to their big day, to represent the warmth and integrity of the californian people and land.<br />
<br />
We can't wait to come on down south, with Madison visiting California in the spring, and our new USA issue focusing on California, Oregon and Washington - places we frequent and love.<br />
<br />
Thank you again to the amazing team that put together this stunning shoot, and we can't wait to see more from all of you again in the future! You can call The Refinery your northern home, that's for sure! To find out all who made this shoot possible, please see the entire list below.<br />
<br />

<br />
This incredible destination session on the Isle of Skye truly took my breath away. It was an honour to be able to share some extremely talented photographers in the new Adventure Issue, and we can't wait to share more in the issues to come. (Issue V - Canada - and Issue I USA - both go live on February 14th, 2014!!!)<br />
<br />
Matt & Dom's "In Love" session is a particular favourite of mine, as my roots to the North of Scotland run deep. I wrote a short paragraph to accompany the spectacular photography from Nirav Patel, and you can find it in the newest issue of TRM over on our website!<br />
<br />
Here's a great travel tip for all you adventurous couples out there:<br />
Are you planning a trip to a foreign location, and want to remember your time there together through the lens of a real pro? Many photographers travel worldwide, and often are in destinations that you are headed to! Nirav Patel, for instance, is a San Francisco, California based photographer, however he manages to globe trot capturing wicked couples, like Matt & Dom, and possibly in the future, you!<br />
<br />
Drop Nirav a line by visiting his website here! Thank you again to Matt, Dom and Nirav for sharing your images with us, and with our followers - we appreciate it deeply.<br />
<br />
Enjoy the rest of these stunning images, as I know you will adore them!<br />
<br />

Canada is a vast land, and from sea to sea, Pacific to Atlantic, you can find endless life changing landscape. From our heavily forested BC rain forests, to the majesty of the Rockies, right through the rolling prairies and all the way to the Rock of Newfoundland, there is a travel destination for anyone, just waiting to happen.<br />
<br />
We contacted <a href="http://www.brittanymahood.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">Brittany Mahood</span></i></a> at the beginning stages of planning the <a href="http://www.therefinerymag.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #45818e;"><i>special edition Adventure Issue of The Refinery Magazine</i></span></a>, and asked if she would be willing to shoot an editorial showcasing the beautiful prairies - and boy, did she deliver! Teaming up with the talented stylist <a href="http://ashleynicole.ca/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">Ashley Nicole</span></i>,</a> this Winnipeg duo, accompanied by many local pros, produced "Field & Flour" - a play on words, since gorgeous Manitoba relies heavily on the Wheat industry!<br />
<br />
Below is some select images from this stunning shoot, and below you can also find a short write up from Brittany about some highlights in Winnipeg. We seriously have to get over there soon!<br />
<br />
We encourage all readers of The Refinery to seek some new borders in 2014, and create your own adventures. Need some inspiration on how? Read the new issue over on our website:<br />

<i><br /></i>
<i><br /></i>
<i><br /></i>
<i><br /></i>
<i>From Brittany Mahood:</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Winnipeg is coming into it’s prime, of this I am certain. We have eclectic coffee shops opening all around the city and plenty of creative types to fill them. We have amazing wedding vendors who are internationally known for their work. We have got our NHL team back, we have a folk festival that attracts amazing indie artists and endless outdoor summer events. </i><br />
<i>One of my favourite things about Winnipeg is that it is fiercely loyal. Of all the North American cities I’ve lived in, Winnipeg does the best job at supporting locally grown creatives and entrepreneurs. We look for uniqueness and talent and lucky for me, that oozes into the wedding industry, where I am lucky enough to capture the work of these fine artists in these establishments all year. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Now let’s talk specifics. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Lattes: Thom Bargen Coffee + Tea on Sherbrooke is the real deal. Real people, real coffee, real leather shop in the back that made me a camera strap I use at every wedding. Also their white walls, wood accents and big windows make it the perfect Instagram backdrop. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Bread: Stella’s Bakery + Cafe. It’s a Winnipeg institution. At the café, the chicken sandwich with homemade cranberry sauce and a side of their house salad is my favourite. At their Sherbrooke location, they have a bakery that looks and feels like it’s something straight out of Europe. Indulge in their daily dessert creations. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Stems: Academy Florists is everything right about florals. Their modern twists on classic influences leaves every single bouquet that comes out of their shop amazing and Pinterest-able. They also have a selection of gifts, like eco-friendly candles and household items that make it creative heaven. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Art + Shop: Tiny Feast, a stationary shop, which carries some of the most amazing local and international creatives. The amazing One Plus One Design, who designed the invites for our shoot, has a selection of their cards and prints for sale at the shop, in addition to their Etsy store. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Skating: In the winter Winnipeg has one of the largest trails in the world in the Red River at The Forks. It’s best to go with friends or as a bundled up date night. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<br />
<br />
<i>Folks: I’d be remiss if I spoke about Winnipeg without mentioning its greatest asset, its people. For instance, Ashley Nicole, the creative genius behind this shoot and once of the most endearing people you’ll ever meet. Lucky for you, there are two of her, as her twin sister Jenna is the talent behind the cake done for this shoot. When you’re here and drinking lattes, it has to be with people like these two. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Suffice to say, come to Winnipeg. Come drink our wheat beer and eat our homemade bread. We have all the right ingredients for a wedding and all the right talent to pull it off. The wheat fields are the perfect backdrop for a summer wedding and we have plenty to share. </i><br />

After looking through <a href="http://www.shariandmike.ca/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">Shari + Mike</span></i></a>'s photography from their recent travels to Vietnam, we immediately went to expedia.com to book our flights. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Having little cash, and little time, we realized the opportunity was not realistic, but after seeing these stunning photos, Vietnam has been added to the bucket list:</div>

We don't mean to brag, but this issue is jam packed full of some of the coolest couples we have yet to share in TRM. From cuties in Spain in white birch forests, to cool photographers who travel far and wide, we are pretty pumped by the love stories that we get to share with you.</div>

She has wicked style, and he's a fantastic bboy dancer (and we even have a pic of it in the issue - worth the read just for that) - and you can take it from us, they do what they do amazingly well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Today's the day! The Knol family Christmas tree is going up and I'm leaving you with some winter wedding inspiration to go with your roasting chestnuts and open fires.<br />
<br />
It may be the Prince George in me or the wannabe tree planter (who lasted a whopping 3 days on the block) but I sure do love conifers. Deciduous trees got nothing on my favourite cone bearers... cedar, fir, spruce, hemlock...<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I just hope pine beetles stop munching them and that this <i>mood </i>board gets you in the <i>mood</i> to host a snowy celebration of your own. </div>

<b>On a side note:</b> Have you ever tasted roasted chestnuts? I don't know what the hype's all about, they taste a bit like bitter mashed potatoes but crunchy. Not a fan.<br />

White is the very definition of timeless (GAP doesn't call it a 'classic white tee' for nothing) and <a href="http://www.therefinerymag.com/four" target="_blank"><span style="color: #660000;">Issue IV</span></a> features pages of white Pinspiration that we're hoping to see more of in 2014 (and beyond). Sparkly headpieces, puppies of honour, woodland ferns, understated cakes... it's pure snowy white goodness captured by the talented duo, <a href="http://www.shariandmike.ca/" style="background-color: white;" target="_blank"><span style="color: #660000;">Shari + Mike Photographers</span></a>.</div>

We are beyond excited to welcome our newest team member: Sara! The Refinery Magazine is quickly growing and we knew that with our busy production schedule for Issue V, and our new US edition - both of which are our February 14th - finding the right "blogess" was the perfect route for us to take!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sara is the Founder and Principal Planner for <a href="http://topknot.ca/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">Top Knot Events</span></i></a>, as well as the creator of the lovely blog <i><a href="http://saigewisdom.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #45818e;">Saige Wisdom</span></a> </i>- we highly suggest you check out both!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Packed with fiery red head personality, we can't wait to see what Sara brings to the table, and hope you join her for the ride! Thanks for being such a valuable member of TRM, S!</div>

<i style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Shirley and I met in the last years of high school, through mutual friends. Funny enough, I started speaking to her in order to find out if she was interested in my friend! Well, that turned out unexpectedly.</i><br />
<i style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br />We dated long distance through university—a tough but valuable experience. Once I had finished university, after 5 years of dating, I spent the summer in Ottawa as Shirley completed a co-op term. Being on her home turf, I knew I would have no way to surprise her with a proposal, so we took a weekend trip to Montreal, supposedly to help me find an apartment for my master's degree. I arranged a fancy dinner boat cruise on the last night, and towards the end of the evening I gave her a journal in which I had been writing her messages for a year. The last page included my soppy proposal, which I then delivered along with an engagement ring. She said yes!</i><i style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /><br />I love Shirley because of her incredible God-given tenderness. Her affections are wholly unfeigned and deeply sacrificial. On top of that, she's wonderful in many ways I'm just not. Though we are rather different people, I think we thrive off each other's different abilities and temperaments.</i><i style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /><br />Our big day went very well, despite a desperate attempt from Vancouver rain to make an appearance. We were able to get our photos taken just as the rain subsided, and it gave us the added benefit of clearing out QE park of any visitors while we were there. We got married at Immanuel Baptist, our home church, before moving to the Heritage Hall on Main Street. We were all tears and smiles amidst a diverse but supportive group of friends and family. It was a wonderful first day of the rest of our lives.</i><br />

Is it just us, or is this wedding just stunning!? Dallas and Sabrina of Dallas Kolotylo captured the stunning wedding of Kelsey & Jerrit beautifully, and it doesn't help that the happy couple, their party, guests, venue and everything about it is so stylish and so visibly filled with happiness. It is, quintessentially, a true "vancouver" wedding. And for those brides that fall in love with this venue, The Diamond - the rumours are true: it is amazingly cool and the drinks are out of this world!<br />
Take a peek through this gorgeous wedding, and at the end, be sure to read about all the special moments Kelsey & Jerrit shared together, and with their closest loved ones. We love it, and so will you!<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Our wedding was an amazing day. Jerrit and I can honestly say that we wouldn’t change anything about it. From having a close family friend give our wedding talk, to our non-traditional wedding cake consisting of different wheels of cheese stacked on top of each other to resemble a cake, to opting for a prop-filled photo-booth as entertainment instead of dancing. Everything came together to create a day Jerrit and I think back on as quite perfect. </span></span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When it came time to plan our wedding, we thought there would be a million little details to work out. However, in choosing <a href="http://www.di6mond.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">The Diamond</span></i></a> in Gastown as our venue for both the ceremony and the reception, and <a href="http://dallaskphoto.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">Dallas and Sabrina Kolotylo</span></i></a> as photographers - we soon realized there wasn’t a lot left to stress out over.</span></span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The staff at The Diamond really went above and beyond our expectations, from setting up for us, to creating an amazing menu to suit each of the many allergies and dietary issues of our guests, to even taking care of the playlist for the entire evening!</span></span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We knew we wanted to have Dallas and Sabrina document our wedding long before we even met with them, and long before we got engaged actually. They are this amazingly talented couple that have the ability to get you so excited and yet feel so relaxed about your big day. They are as professional as they are a pleasure to be around, and their passion for what they do really shows in their work. What really impressed us was how they were there first thing in the morning when we were getting ready, and didn’t leave until after Jerrit and I had left for the night. They captured everything. We couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out, and how accurately they portray the events and emotions of our day.</span></span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When you marry your best friend, you want that day to reflect who you are as a couple. We had just that, and we owe it to our family, our friends, and the professionals we had the pleasure of working with.</span></span><br />

<br />
Check out this sick tune I found through a good friend of mine - it's really catching my ears! Oh, and I'm super jealous of her skills - she is only a year older than me!<br />

All the fog around Vancouver has really been bringing back fond memories of our first big bridal shoot with <i><a href="http://www.theapartmentphotography.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #45818e;">The Apartment Photography</span></a></i> in Gastown. Here is a favourite shot of Julia in<span style="color: #45818e;"> <i><a href="http://truvelle.com/" target="_blank">Truvelle Bridal's</a></i> </span>Julia Gown on the roof beside the old Woodwards W.<br />
<br />
This shoot happened in January of this year for our <a href="http://www.therefinerymag.com/one" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #45818e;">very first issue</span></i></a>, and it reminds us that our 1 year anniversary issue is quickly coming up! We are so excited to share what we have planned for all of you!<br />
