Celine & Cody’s Acreage Wedding in Ardrossan, Alberta

Nestled between Josephburg and Ardrossan, Celine and Cody turned their treed acreage into the perfect setting for a rustic wedding day full of joy, connection, and a few beautiful surprises.

From a custom ceremony under the arch to a winding forest trail that led to a laid-back reception, every part of their celebration reflected who they are: down-to-earth, wildly in love, and ready to party with the people who mean the most.

Celine and Cody chose their own backyard — a forested acreage near Ardrossan — for their wedding ceremony. A handmade arch with antlers and fabric set the stage beneath tall trees, where guests gathered for a peaceful, intimate moment.

They exchanged vows with birdsong in the air and trees swaying above. After their kiss (captured in a timeless black and white image), they were all smiles and hugs. Their big group photo said it all — laughter, love, and a community coming together.

After the ceremony, signs led guests down a winding trail through the woods. Midway? A jello shot bar — a hit with everyone. That trail ended in a cozy, open-air reception space with lawn games, drinks, and relaxed vibes.

Long farm tables framed the space. There was a small cake, and a donut station that didn’t last long. What began as a 2-hour shoot stretched into over 5 — packed with laughs, quiet moments, and unexpected magic.

From their vows beneath the trees to lawn games, donuts, and dancing barefoot on the grass — Celine and Cody’s day was relaxed, joyful, and uniquely theirs. Every detail reflected their story, their humour, and the people they love most.
