Gregor Robertson and his wife Eileen Park got married in Stanley Park in December.

While Vancouver celebrities are often featured in major American publications, like Ryan Reynolds or Michael Bublé, local ex-politicians don't often make the cut.

However, former City of Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson and his wife are in Vogue's spotlight today. The glamour magazine has a feature article about the wedding between Robertson and Eileen Park, the founder of Anecdotia Media.

The pair were married by the largest maple tree in Canada (which happens to be in Stanley Park) Park says in an interview. She speaks about how the two met a few years ago in Portland, dated long-distance and then came together during the pandemic.

They got married in December with only a couple of people as witnesses and the marriage commissioner.

The story also features a set of photos from the wedding, shot as the late afternoon sunshine hits the park's forest. The story's captions are all written by Park.
