Vicki and Max stylish Helsinki Wedding was held on one of the first truly warm spring days, when it was so hot that you could actually feel that the summer is just behind the corner. They had centered their wedding around the district of Kruununhaka, where they both had grown up in the same house as neighbours. The wedding day started with preparations at their families apartments. If you have an eye for details, you can actually see that the oval shaped room where they where getting dressed is the exact same room, just situated on different floors! The ceremony was helt at Helsinki cathedral and afterwards the guests walked over the main square to Restaurant Chapter for cocktail hour, while snuck back to their home street that means so much to them to take some portraits. The Reception was held at Valkoinen Sali, that Nord& Mae had done an amazing job styling it, as they always do!
Because Vicki and Max had a lot of international guests at their wedding, they had invited everyone to a fun brunch at Ritarihuone the next day. My favourite wedding band Spruce was playing, and boy was the dance floor packed- even if it was a Sunday! I have known Vicki and her family my whole life, so it was truly an amazing experience to photograph her and Max wedding. Thank you so much for asking me to document your beautiful day!
