Tappattoo Resort Wedding [Parry Sound]

June 25th 2022

This was the start of my 2022 wedding season, and it couldn't have been a more beautiful day. As a Muskoka wedding photographer, I always love photographing weddings surrounded by nature, and Kaela & Jon's wedding at Grand Tappattoo Resort in Parry Sound was the perfect way to kick off the season.

I met Kaela first thing in her suite at Grand Tappattoo Resort. Hair and makeup were already underway, and the room was buzzing with excitement as everyone prepared for the day ahead. This waterfront wedding venue in Ontario provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxed and joyful morning.

After spending some time capturing getting-ready photos with the girls, I ventured to the adjacent suite where the guys were getting ready. The air buzzed with an endless symphony of jokes and shenanigans, creating an atmosphere filled with camaraderie and laughter.

Kaela & Jon exchanged vows during a beautiful beach wedding ceremony at Grand Tappattoo Resort. Set along the shores of Otter Lake, the ceremony was heartfelt and intimate, ending with bubbles as Jon whisked away his new bride.

The most memorable part of the day happened after the ceremony when Kaela & Jon decided to head out onto the water. They originally planned to use a kayak, but when it started leaking, they quickly switched to paddleboards. They paddled out to a nearby raft for some wedding photos while I photographed them from the beach. On the way back, Jon's paddleboard began taking on water and slowly started to sink. Friends jumped into a canoe to rescue him, but not before he made a splash and fell into the lake. The cheers and laughter from their wedding guests echoed across the water, making it one of the most unforgettable moments I've witnessed as an Ontario wedding photographer.

The rest of the reception was held inside, and it was a total vibe. From the laughter to the dance floor energy, it was the perfect ending to a fun-filled Grand Tappattoo Resort wedding and a day that truly reflected Kaela & Jon's personalities.
