Mystic Beach shoot featured in Pacific Weddings magazine
Yipeeeeee! Finally we can show you something we’ve been itching to share for months. Laura of Tuktu Paper inspired an incredible shoot that Verbena Floral took part in. Set at the magical Mystic Beach, French Kiss Event arranged a photo shoot of a laid back, intimate West Coast wedding, and the editors at Pacific Weddings saw a snap on Instagram and asked to publish it! We just got our copy and are so beyond thrilled to share this project with their readers-and now finally with you! The photographer for this shoot was the incredible, talented Christie Graham of Christie Graham Photography (who kindly came over from Vancouver).
This multi location shoot started with this table set up at the Pacheedaht Campground in Port Renfrew (because there was no way we were hauling all this stuff down the 45 minute hike to Mystic!). Then we drove back to Mystic and all hiked down for 45 mins to get the portraits and surf shots. Then back up to warm up around a fire with dinner. We capped off this long day with an incredible Morrocan Stew that Elena’s husband had made for all of us over a campfire on the beach.
Setting up for this shoot involved a lot of vendors! Laura of Tuktu Paper was the talented woman who created all the printed material like the invitations, the place cards, the “You can’t stop the waves” tambourine and the beer bottle labels below. The beautiful dress is an Anna Campbell dress and it is from The White Peony, in Victoria. Patrick Tier of Citizen Clothing provided all the clothing for the groom. Hair was by Elena of Concious Hair and makeup was by Erin Bradley of Style by Erin Bradley. Cake by Ruth & Dean. And Mexi Pops brought their cart and frozen treats so we could shoot the bride and groom with the pops. Without furth adieu, here are some photos from the “wedding”. How gorgeous are these models?! And what troopers-it was not exactly sunny and warm-it was authentic West Coast: breezy. Isn’t their dinner table so sweet? Vanessa bought the pillow fabric from Liberty of London in the UK and had pillows made. The incredible feather scarf (below) and the chevron print table runner were both pieces bought from Coral & Tusk in New York.
And last but not least, our favourite shot: the Mystic Beach waterfall. Absolutely incredible, Christie Graham.And in true Vancouver Island style, we pulled out the surfboards, which were loaned to us from surfboard manufacturers Anian Boards in Victoria.
Fabulous job to everyone involved. It was such an honour and pleasure to work with you all. What a vision to pull together, and the results are something we will all cherish for years to come.

Faraley + Ange
Talk about a blissful wedding full of love. In a gorgeous setting at Sea Cider Farm and Ciderhouse, Faraley and Ange got hitched, and recited the best vows we’ve ever heard. Love, love, love… These beauties were surrounded by family, friends and delicate-but-lively flowers (including the most gorgeous Icelandic poppies) in a gorgeous palette. The Best Men captured the day so so so beautifully-here is a peek.
We used all our most beautiful antique and vintage looking containers and created beautiful, garden link arrangements channelling our inner mentors, Ariella Chezar, Max Gill , Erin of Floret, Kate Holt of Flowerwild and Vanessa’s hero, McKenzie Powell from Seattle.
Ange and I just wanted to thank you and your team for being AWESOME. The flowers were amazing and all I heard all night was how gorgeous this wedding was and it was truly because of you. It was everything we could have hoped for, so THANK YOU! !
I hope any leftover flowers went to hospice and PLEASE let me know if the love ball is beyond repair and we will buy you a new one (I saw my bro with it and knew it was the end…).
A MILLION THANK YOUS!!!!

Sarah + Derek
I loved that Derek and Sarah chose to get married in the spring. It is, to me, one of the best times “florally” to get married because there are an abundance of quintessential wedding flowers in bloom: peonies, tulips, lily of the valley [*sigh*] …just gorgeous.
The floral designs were organic, loose, romantic—the best of spring.
These are on my list of my favourite Verbena bouquets of all time. (Can you see the begonias? I used them as a cut flower for the first time because they were the perfect shades of coral, and they were great!)
Congratulations to this sweet couple. Thank you for inviting us into your day—the pleasure was all ours.
Thank you to the amazing Ryan Mcdonald for the beautiful photography. The wedding took place at one of our favourite venues: Sea Cider Farm & Ciderhouse.
