A travel inspired wedding, for a pair of globetrotting newly-weds.
The bride spent several years living on a ship as a little girl, so had a soft spot for the Sicamous.
The wedding ceremony was held on a mountain pass, above the Coquihalla.
The location was so remote, it had to be reached by helicopter.
A rehearsal was held the week before, with a 5 hour hike needed to reach the spot.
The camera crew recorded the windswept ceremony, for the friends and family to watch in comfort aboard the SS Sicamous
White chairs were set out, with bags of popcorn, and bottles of champagne ready to pour.
At the end of the evening the bride and groom left under a tunnel of sparklers, shimmering overhead.
