When Derek and Katrina mentioned where they planned to tie the knot, I started crossing my fingers and silently hoping ‘pick me, pick me!’. A departure from traditional wedding venues, a wedding at the Canada Science and Technology Museum in Ottawa would prove to be very unique, and very cool. Not to mention that they are a great couple and I LOVE their shared sense of humour. The ceremony and reception were held in the Locomotive Room at the museum. The room itself is fantastic with two huge steam trains flanking the space, and it was a beautiful and meaningful evening. Friends and family gave speeches and raised glasses, and there were a few tears and lots of smiles and laughter. It really was a celebration of two people meant for each other. It was also quite fitting that Capt. Jean-Luc Picard (confession: I had to ask to get the name right) joined the newlyweds at Table One. After all, we were at Science & Tech, he would have been right at home. 
A sneak peek of some favorites from the night: Getting ready… 
The bride wore a custom gown made by Catherine Langlois that fit her perfectly.
And then they danced…
