The wedding

Jaci and Vincent were married in Watertown, NY, in the North Country, at the Hilton Garden Inn Watertown/Thousand Islands. A French Canadian and an American, they brought both sides of the border together on the water of the Thousand Islands.

From the rehearsal through the wedding day

Bella Vita photographed them from the rehearsal on the water through the wedding day. The gallery includes getting ready, the couple on the dock, the ceremony by the water, portraits on the lawn, and the reception.

The film

The wedding was also filmed. The film is published on its own page, separate from the still photographs.

What a waterfront day like this needs

This celebration used the water for the rehearsal and again for portraits, with the reception at the same inn. That shape is useful to plan for: time on the dock or lawn, a way back indoors, and a sheltered option if the weather turns. Travel from Montreal to Watertown is outside the 20 km area where travel is included, so the trip is quoted for the booking.
