A Stylish Summer Wedding at Château des Charmes — Julie & Justin

There are some weddings that feel like they were meant to unfold in slow motion — where every laugh, every champagne pop, and every sunset kiss has its own rhythm. Julie and Justin’s wedding at Château des Charmes was one of those days that reminded us why we love photographing love stories in the Niagara region. Julie and Justin live in New York City, but they decided to bring their closest family and friends north of the border for a destination celebration at one of Niagara’s most timeless venues. Château des Charmes, with its sweeping vineyards and classic French architecture, set the tone for an elegant yet relaxed affair that perfectly reflected their personalities. From the start, we knew this wedding would be special. Julie’s fashion-forward eye and Justin’s effortlessly cool style came together beautifully.

What made this day truly memorable, though, was the unhurried timeline. Julie and Justin prioritized time. Time to laugh with friends, sip a glass of wine between portraits, and stroll through in the vineyards at sunset. As photographers, we couldn’t have asked for a better flow. That breathing room allowed us to capture them naturally — playful in the vineyard rows, tender in the golden light, and joyfully surrounded by their people.

Their guests brought an incredible energy too — a mix of New York sophistication and genuine warmth that filled the entire day.

Julie and Justin’s Château des Charmes wedding reminded us of why we adore what we do: crafting images that feel like them: romantic, real, and a little bit cinematic. If you’re dreaming of a Niagara wedding that blends luxury with laid-back charm, Château des Charmes will always have our hearts.
