Sutton Wedding Photographer | Rosie’s Place


Lily & Ahmad

It’s not too often you marry the same person twice, but that’s exactly what Lily and Ahmad did! Lily got a teaching job in Vietnam, and to get the paperwork done in time, they legally got married in February. Then they had their wedding in July, at Sutton’s newest wedding venue, Rosie’s Place! I was honoured to be their Sutton wedding photographer for their big celebration!

How They Met

In the very beginning, Ahmad and Lily met in high school. Ahmad was friends with Lily’s twin brother, Chris. Chris and Lily went to separate high schools, so Lily met Ahmad when he came over to visit Chris.

Flash forward to when they were in university: Lily came home from spending a summer studying in Venice, Italy. Ahmad was working at the local Petro-Can gas station. Ahmad ran into Lily’s family there, who told him about her travels. He texted her asking about the trip, and they started “seeing each other” that summer. By the end of the summer, they were officially a couple. Five years later, they were married!

The Wedding

Getting Ready

Lily and Ahmad actually got ready together for their wedding! They thought it would be easier, plus technically, they were already married anyway 😉

The Ceremony & Reception

The wedding ceremony and reception were held at Rosie’s Place. The ceremony was outdoors, and the reception was held the beautiful barn filled with authentic antique decor! Lifestyles Catering served mouth-watering foods from all around the globe – which was fitting since Lily is such a world-traveller!

Since Lily and Ahmad were already married, they didn’t need an officiant. Instead, their wedding party took turns reading lines from the original ceremony.

The Wedding Party

Another unique wedding element, was their almost-entirely male wedding party! The guys on the bride’s side wore shades of warm colours (yellow, orange, red, pink, etc.), and the guys on the groom’s side wore cool colours (green, purple, blue). Malini was not only the Maid of Honour (and only female attendant), but she was deemed by several people (including herself) as “the best person at the wedding”. Malini – you are awesome! (I know her response would be “I know.” haha.)

The Newlyweds!

We literally just walked all over the property and took photos – Rosie’s Place has tons of great photo spots!

Lily & Ahmad’s Sneak Peeks

Today I get to share with you some of Lily and Ahmad’s Sutton wedding photos! Lily and Ahmad have a unique wedding story, in that they got married to each other twice this year!

Lily got a teaching job in Vietnam, and when they found how long it would take to get their marriage license after they got married, they had to get legally married a bit earlier than they planned, just so all the paperwork would be ready before they left for Vietnam.

They had their big wedding celebration just last week, at Lily’s parents’ place! Their “Auction barn” was turned into a beautiful wedding venue for Lily and Ahmad! They also had a ton of DIY aspects of their wedding that a lot of people worked very hard on, but I will talk about that in a future blog post 😉

My daughter noticed that in the photo below (top left), that the wind blew Lily’s hair into a heart-shape!
