They traveled from across the ocean for a picture perfect wedding day. Kerry & Ross exchanged vows with the breathtaking cliffside view of the Gatineau Hills behind them. Le Belvedere was the perfect location for this beautiful couple to celebrate with their closest family and friends.

Ross and I met in London, United Kingdom in September 2010. I was working at a branding agency called Claessens when Ross moved down from Scotland and also started working there. Ross remembers me on his first day when I was covering the reception desk for my colleague, however, the first time I remember Ross is when we all went to the pub after work on a Thursday. I was about to leave the pub for the night and was walking through the crowd of people when I heard his strong Scottish accent. He was talking about water-skiing and for me, being Canadian, I loved water sports, and was instantly intrigued as it was not a usual topic, or accent, for London! I turned my head and there he was, and from that moment I knew there was something special about him and I had to know more.

Ross proposed to me at my parents’ house at Lake Clear in Ontario, Canada on January 1st, 2018 as we rang in the new year. He got down on one knee and pulled out a beautiful princess cut diamond ring. All of my family were in the living room with us, standing in front of the Christmas tree, with the log fire roaring behind us. His parents had flown over from Scotland, especially for the occasion, and I was none the wiser. It was their first time meeting my family and until that moment I had no idea why they had chosen to travel to Canada for the first time in the winter instead of summer. I thought they were crazy but they embraced the cold Canadian winter to be there for us and that was really special. We continued the celebration into the wee hours with champagne and fireworks.
