Other vendors: Hair by Nina at Mousy Brown’s, cake by Cakes by Trina, flowers from The Wild Orchid, and music by RVL Entertainment. The formals were shot at The Alberta Art Gallery.

From Jaleen: Their story is so unique. I met them back in 2008. Valerie booked a photo shoot with me….it was to be of her and her boyfriend….but Jarrett called me a few days in advance and told me he planned on proposing to Valerie at the photo shoot, so he and I had our cues all set as to when he was going to drop down on one knee…and I caught the moment for them on film, it was fantastic. Two years later I was so excited to be their wedding photographer!
