I have to quote the talented photographer, David, when he said: I would like to submit a wedding to you…a very cool, urban, simple, modern wedding. This is Colleen and Mike, and they have a lot of style and, most importantly, impeccable musical taste.

So with that as the opening line, of course I was hooked! Their wedding was in a restaurant called Charcut, in a boutique hotel in downtown Calgary called Hotel Le Germain. The adorable tandem bicycle is their own, the flower details were all done by Colleen herself, and the music was carefully put together by both of them. Sounds like a match made in blog heaven!

You guys ready for this?!??!
