DOCUMENT YOUSarah & Rich

May 21, 2012

Prior to their destination elopement wedding in Tofino, Vancouver Island, Sarah and Rich had a story to share with us about their connection to Tim Hortons. In case you’re unfamiliar with Tim Hortons, it’s a coffee shop that can be found across the country and is a staple of Canadian culture. Ask anyone in Canada about Tim Hortons and they’ll know it has great coffee, donuts and was started by a hockey player.

Sarah and Richard’s story with Tim Hortons dates back to when they first started dating. This particular coffee shop on River Road in Delta (outside of Vancouver) is located roughly in the middle between where the two were living, so prior to work every day, this was where they would meet. Every day.

This soon became their ‘thing’ and they kept it going for a long time. And when they weren’t having coffees at the Tim Hortons, they would hang out at various spots along River Road.

So, for their Document You session, we decided to take that route too, and document them in those places they know so very well by now.

Eventually, when Richard was ready to propose to Sarah, he did it with the ring at the bottom of a Tim Hortons coffee cup. The proposal lead to another cool story, involving keeping secrets, a mystery picnic, a ceremony in a rainforest and a crazy dog.

But we’ll leave that to another day.
