A Modern Wedding In Downtown Calgary

Updated Apr 23, 2015

| By Vanessa Ortynsky

This jet-setting couple was living in London, England when Trevor told Justine to pack a bag for a five-day vacation. It wasn’t until they arrived at the airport that Justine found out they were heading to Bordeaux, France. “It wasn’t our final destination,” reveals Justine, who still had no idea their engagement would take place in Hossegor, France; a small surf town on the Atlantic coast that they had fallen in love with a few years earlier (Justine was working in Paris at the time). Although Justine and Trevor both love travelling the world, they opted for a Canadian wedding surrounded by their closest family and friends. When planning their downtown Calgary celebration, the couple didn’t skimp on any of the details—and their absolute favourite was the food. “CHARCUT did an amazing job from start to finish, and the ambience in the restaurant was perfect.” Another gastronomic highlight was the tasty midnight snack served up by the Holy Grill food truck.
