Kadance + Jordon's Fairmont Woodlands Terrace Wedding

Kadance and Jordon’s Fairmont Woodlands Terrace wedding felt like the full-circle moment of a love story that started in the most unassuming way — a quiet New Year’s gathering, just the four of them. Sometimes the best connections don’t shout; they settle in slowly, quietly, and then never leave.

Whistler held a special place in their story. It was where they took their first real trip together — the weekend they both realized what they had was something rare. So when it came time to choose a wedding location, it made perfect sense. And not just Whistler — the Woodlands Terrace at the Fairmont offered that blend of forest calm, mountain energy, and intimate beauty that matched their story.

Spring was always going to be the season. They began dating in May, and this time of year reminds them of fresh starts and the kind of love that feels equal parts grounded and brand new. That feeling was woven into their entire wedding day.

They brought a lightness to the celebration — full of laughter, ease, and a sense of “this is exactly right.” Their ceremony overlooked the woods with family and friends gathered close, and the day slowly unfolded into what they had always imagined: a dance floor full of movement and joy, where Jordon (a self-declared dance-floor MVP) could shine, and where they could be fully themselves — no stress, no pretenses, just a celebration of their story.

What I remember most is how they made room for the things that mattered: a deep connection to the outdoors, moments of quiet in the forest, and time to fully feel it all — the joy, the excitement, the nerves, and the unbelievable happiness of starting a new chapter in the place where their story really took off.

They told me early on that they loved candid moments and the Whistler landscape — and I was lucky enough to capture both. From portraits tucked into the woods to the in-between glances they didn’t even know they were sharing, their day was full of the kind of authenticity I always hope to photograph.
