Tamara & Bradley in Sutton, Quebec

Bradley's sunset proposal on the beach at Torrey Pines State Reserve in San Diego was only the beginning of a dream come true for Tamara. Sweet details and thoughtful gestures set the mood for the couple's summer nuptials in southern Quebec. The Bride Tamara Ensio, 29, Graphic Designer The Groom Bradley Johnson, 29, Sales Representative The Date August 7 College sweethearts Tamara and Bradley met as senior coeds through a mutual friend at their alma mater, Boston College. Bradley's romantic proposal seven years later -- at sunset on the beach in southern California -- was all the inspiration Tamara needed. As news of the engagement spread, Tamara undertook the task of planning her Canadian destination wedding all by herself. She began by deciding on a classic garden theme set in the backyard of her parents’ summer home. Tamara's sage and cream color scheme perfectly complemented her theme and wonderfully suited the setting of green fields and forests lush with birch, maple, and evergreen trees.
