Kerena & Wendell’s Orange and Gold Alderlea Wedding

This couple will probably look familiar from their popular social media posts. Whether on our page or re-posted on others, you can’t miss Kerena & Wendell’s vibrant engagement shoot in Liberty Village, beautiful colours used for wedding outfits and décor, and their picturesque wedding venue, Alderlea.

A wedding always starts with a love story. For Kerena & Wendell, their story started 6 years before he popped the question: they were friends for 4 years and dated for 2 before he took her to the beautiful landscapes of Blue Mountain in Collingwood and was waiting on one knee when she woke up in the morning, “dying to hear her say YES,” as Wendell put it. Since then, they’ve described themselves as a fun-loving, adventurous and focused couple, and shooting them for engagement pictures and then their wedding made that obvious.

If you have seen this couple’s engagement and wedding photos around, the first thing that catches your eye is their bold and fun colours: orange and gold. This was incorporated into Wendell’s suit, the groomsmen’s accessories, Kerena’s bouquet, the bridesmaids dresses (made by @_diandadesigns who also made the couple’s engagement shoot outfits) and flowers, the table settings, all the reception décor and most importantly: the cake!

Alderlea is located in the heart of Brampton and is an iconic mansion from the 19th century that went under careful restoration to make it perfect for a perfect wedding venue. Alderlea is ‘19th century vintage meets 21st century chic’, offering a gorgeous exterior that transports you back to balls and horse-drawn carriages, and a modern inside with high ceilings and nostalgic details. This venue was perfect for the couple’s intimate ceremony and reception, hosting their closest family and friends and might we add, complimenting their colour theme phenomenally.

Kerena & Wendell took to Gage Park in Brampton to shoot their wedding day photos, and the setting is truly a wedding photographer’s dream. The park makes for a perfect backdrop (plus it’s walking distance to Alderlea, definitely recommended).

This caterer is one of Alderlea’s preferred vendors, and it is no surprise why. Feast Your Eyes was AMAZING!! Delicious food and gorgeous presentation. Their staff was so friendly and thoughtful. We’ve worked with them a number of times now and they make effort to ensure everyone is well fed always going above and beyond each time. 

Kerena & Wendell’s wedding was an intimate affair, with their close family and friends around to celebrate their big day. We were with the couple from the morning during the ‘getting ready’ stage, to the reception when the dance floor was open and in full use (after that we opened Redwood’s photo booth for them to take the photography into their own hands).

It was a beautiful day and Redwood Studio wishes Wendell & Kerena the warmest wishes for their life together.
