Westport Wedding Vibes - BYO Beers, Big Laughs & a Pondside ‘I Do’

Tyler & Shannon

Eight years of love, laughter, and life together – and now it’s time for the next chapter. Tyler and Shannon’s Westport wedding was the perfect mix of homegrown charm and relaxed celebration, a true reflection of the couple themselves.

The ceremony was held at Tyler’s parents’ stunning Alma Road property, with a peaceful pond backdrop setting the scene. Celebrant Corrina Batt guided the ceremony, and the couple kept things intimate and meaningful.

After the ceremony, guests headed to the Westport Trotting Club Tearooms for a reception with a party vibe. A music playlist kept things relaxed and fun, with buffet-style dining by PRs Café Westport and drinks flowing – BYOB encouraged! The evening was all about celebrating, laughing, and dancing.

Tanya Salter Photography captured the moments as they unfolded, alongside guest cam operators Silas Coleman and Calvin McTaggart.

Tyler looked stunning in her gown from To Cherish Bridal, carrying blooms by Flowers of Eden. Hair styling by Divine Hair & Beauty and makeup by Katelyn Getley & Shanea Fox.

Above all, this was a wedding about personality – no fuss, no fluff, just a day that felt true to who Tyler and Shannon are.
