A Wedding at Plaza Centre Ville Hotel, Montreal: Captured by Eddy Lee, Wedding Photographer

As a wedding photographer, I've been fortunate enough to witness and capture some truly magical moments. One such occasion was the fusion wedding of Harjaap and Devin, held at the Plaza Centre Ville Hotel in Montreal, Canada—a venue that's a dream for any wedding photographer.

 

The festivities spanned over two days, with day one dedicated to a traditional Indian wedding ceremony. The vibrant colors, the rhythmic music, and the lively dance routines created a beautiful cultural tapestry that was a joy to photograph. The open-air setting allowed for some truly stunning shots, capturing not just the couple and their guests, but the energy and spirit of the celebration.

 

The second day was all about the wedding reception. Early in the day, I had the privilege of capturing intimate images of the couple as they got ready in their hotel room. The Plaza Centre Ville Hotel boasts large windows that usher in a generous amount of natural light, an absolute boon for a wedding photographer like me. The light diffused softly, illuminating the couple as they prepared for their big day, creating a serene and intimate atmosphere.

 

Once the couple was ready, it was time for portraits. The natural light from the hotel's big windows served as the perfect, soft backlight, adding depth to the couple’s shots. The architectural beauty of the Plaza Centre Ville Hotel provided an elegant and timeless backdrop, further enhancing the charm of their portraits.

 

As the day transitioned into night, the celebration took a more exuberant turn on the hotel's spacious dance floor. The energy was palpable, with guests moving rhythmically to the music, their joy mirrored in the couple's eyes. I moved amongst the revelers, my camera capturing the spontaneous, unscripted moments that often make the best memories.

 

Being a wedding photographer at the Plaza Centre Ville Hotel in Montreal was an experience I will always cherish. Not just because of the beautiful venue, but because I got to document the union of Harjaap and Devin, two people whose love for each other was evident in every frame I captured. It was a wedding that truly exemplified the beauty of love and the joy of celebration.
