July - What a whirlwind! Bring on August!

4 weddings, crazy heat and good times - that's how I would sum up July. As much as 4 weddings may not sound like a lot, add in a full time job and going through training to the mix and I can see why I'm counting down to my holidays!

The beginning of July started out with a wedding at the Elm Hurst Inn in Ingersoll. This ceremony was beautiful - the setting was down in the valley in behind the hotel, with some very nice live musicians... however, the heat was almost unbearable! There was no breeze that day, and everyone was soaked with sweat. I was shocked to see guests in the audience get up during the ceremony in search of shade and water. On the positive side - I got a decent tan :P The next wedding was in Mount Brydges - on a cooler day with a wonderful quiet setting in what seemed to be out in the middle of nowhere.

The ceremony took place on a property on the outskirts of town. There was a pond, lovely plants, waterfalls and wildlife everywhere. Very nice! And let's not forget the awesome car the couple got to drive:

The following wedding was in Owen Sound. I couldn't go as I had a wedding the next day that I would never have been able to make, so I am excited about getting the footage soon from Shouldice Media!

The final wedding was in the beautiful Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington - absolutely stunning! What a great place to have a ceremony and reception! Beautiful flowers everywhere, gorgeous pathways for some amazing pictures... I would go back in a heartbeat! I also had a date for the wedding:

I was a little freaked out when this landed on me at first, but it turned out to be pretty cool :P

Anyway, I am gearing up for 2 more weddings before my holidays! I'm heading to Newfoundland from the 15th-20th, with a wedding there on the 17th. I can't wait!! After that, I'm coming back to Ontario to enjoy a week of the outdoors. So pumped. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
