Today we can't wait to share with you the highlights from Benz and Richard's beautiful summer wedding at the Swan-e-Set Bay Resort & Country Club.

We first had the pleasure of meeting Benz at the Brock House Wedding Show. It wasn't until much later, when we sat down to film an interview with the couple shortly before their wedding, that we had the pleasure to meet Richard. It was only after meeting them both that we realized just how lucky we were to be working with this couple. Benz and Richard live and breathe each other. You see it when they look at each other. And you can hear it when they speak to one another.

At Benz and Richard's wedding, we had our first experience working with Miranda and Reilly of Blue Olive Photography and what a fantastic experience it was. Miranda and Reilly are both so easy to get along with, which meant working alongside them was a breeze. And at the end of the day, their photography speaks for itself. They were kind enough to allow us to use some of their photos from Benz and Richard's wedding, which you'll see at the top of this blog post as well as on the cover photo for Benz and Richard's video below.

It was also our first time working alongside officiant Marilyn Knipp and that was also a lovely first experience. Marilyn did a fantastic job with the ceremony and kept everyone entertained.

We hope you enjoy these highlights from Benz and Richard's Swan-e-Set wedding in Pitt Meadows, BC.

Our Namesake

Dur­ing this time, it was Theo that sup­ported his brother, both finan­cially and emotionally. After Vin­cent passed, Theo (and later his wife Johanna and their chil­dren) ded­i­cated him­self to the pro­mo­tion of his brother’s mas­ter­pieces. It was only over the course of decades that Vincent’s work became bet­ter known. 

This was a story that res­onated with us. That an artist like Van Gogh would remain unknown with­out the hard work, love, sup­port and pas­sion of others.

Just like our name­sake, our stu­dio is a col­lec­tion of thoughts and ideas sup­ported by a net­work of hard-working, lov­ing, sup­port­ive and pas­sion­ate peo­ple. And every day we’re thank­ful for them, for we wouldn’t be who we are with­out them.

The name “Vin­cent + Theo” actu­ally pays homage to Vin­cent Van Gogh and his lesser known brother, Theo. And it was the dynamic forged by them that cap­ti­vated us.

When Vin­cent Van Gogh orig­i­nally cre­ated his works, he was an unknown. His work unrec­og­nized. He sold but a hand­ful of paint­ings and dis­cour­aged the few writ­ers that showed inter­est in his work. He was actu­ally sus­pi­cious of suc­cess and was con­cerned that early recog­ni­tion would cor­rupt him.
