I was happy to be a part of Michelle and Matt’s wedding at the Sferas Convention Center as their wedding photographer on a beautiful early October day! I was asked to cover their wedding for 4 hours, while staying the night manning the SvenStudos photobooth, which got a good workout throughout the night!

Sferas Convention Center Wedding Ceremony

The Sferas chapel in behind the Convention center complex was the location of their wedding ceremony. It’s a long, thin room designed to be fairly intimate and cozy, with a grand piano and floral decor at it’s head. The ceremony was a short and sweet affair, highlighted by Michelle and Matt’s adorable little daughter who was smiling the entire way through, along with an entertaining episode where the best man almost dropped the rings 🙂

Glamour Photos

After the group photos which were taken on the grassy area directly beside the Convention Center, we used the rest of Civic Park for a few glamour photos before heading over the road to make use of the more rustic backdrops of weeping willows and long, unkempt grass. We also returned to the hanging lights in Civic Park later in the night for some nighttime shots.

Sferas Convention Center Wedding Reception

The Sferas Convention Center boasts multiple, large function rooms, and as it happened, they were using at least 3 of them on the same night as Michelle and Matt’s wedding reception. The room in which Michelle and Matt chose to hold their reception was my favourite room of the lot – the Studio. While it isn’t the largest, I like it a lot for the lovely curved windows overlooking the nearby park.
