Richard & Rhea were so much fun to work with!  They had so much spunk, personality and most importantly of all… They were madly in love and couldn’t wait to get married!  Rhea lived in Ottawa at the time, and now they both reside there together.  We helped them out as much as we could with wrapping and embellishing their favours, providing linens, seating table cards, menus and table numbers.  It was a first for us, but we’re thrilled with how it all turned out and not only do we have these awesome experiences, we made friends for life!  Richard & Rhea, you two are such beautiful people, a joy to work with and it was an absolute honour to be a part of your special day! XOXO

These gorgeous images were taken by Julian Moniz.  Check out his Blog for more seriously beautiful pictures of this wedding!  I felt like I was there!  Oh, and you have to check out this short video, by their videographer, Bert Moniz.  So much fun to watch! LOVE IT!

Ok… I have to come clean here, and confess… I AM NOT A FAN OF PLAIN JANE TABLE NUMBERS!

You know the ones that the venues provide, usually done on plain paper and then they laminate them so they last forever unfortunately.  Well, I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be that way… There are so many creative options to make your tables look fantastic as well as serve their purpose.  Here is a bit of inspiration to get you going.  If you’re stuck and not sure what to do, email me your wedding theme, an inspiration picture of your centrepiece and your wedding colours and I will help you come up with something unique, modern and creative! I’m sure you will agree that any one of these options look better than the first.

This first picture is taken from one of my lovely couples engagement photo shoot.  They took creative pictures holding a number that represented their table number all over the city… They did some on the subway, in the park, just different poses to capture the number and it was personalized and adorable!  One of my favs! These pictures are from Mississauga Convention Centre in Mississauga Ontario.

Carolyn and I had a lot in common in terms of flower style.  We discussed our love of ribbon, specifically Mokuba ribbon which brings tears to my eyes every time, and how to incorporate it into the wedding. The ceremony that was in the Westminister Room was kept classic with the use of curly willow and ivory dendrobium orchids in trumpet vases.  We decided  to mix the modern colour scheme of orange and grey,  into the vintage, more traditional vibe of the Guild Hall, at The Old Mill, and it worked perfectly!  Ranunculus, dusty miller, berzillia, and tulips gave us the pops in our colour story that we needed.  Little vintage yellow bud vases with our choice florals filled the cake table and the head table tucked in between 2 long and low orange rose “beds”.  They were soo beautiful!  This wedding was an amazing splash of colour, with tons of delicious details and a true representation of Carolyn’s personality!  Which is exactly what your wedding should be!  A representation of you and your new partner! Boston Images was kind enough to send me a CD of their unbelievable work displaying this fun spirited wedding, and I am thrilled to share them with you!

Robin & Richard are both really funny- we totally clicked and definitely shared some laughs planning the concept for their garden inspired wedding!  I have to say that their ceremony was really touching and you could really feel the love everyone present had for them.   They were so trusting, and gave me a lot of creative freedom!  This was definitely one of my favorites!  Check out the gorgeous pics that Lori from Lori Studios captured  at the absolutely STUNNING Spadina House.  Check out her blog for more eye candy of this super sweet wedding!

I love winter weddings, and Nina & Igor’s wedding at The Old Mill this past November did not disappoint.  Nina’s classic bouquet consisted of  ivory calla lillies, and Igor’s boutonniere was made up of 2 mini calla lillies, with a thin gold wire detail.   The bridesmaid’s bouquets consisted of ivory vendella roses, freesia and seeded eucalyptus.  All of the bouquets had a custom pearl brooch that we applied to the champagne satin ribbon wrapped stems.   Every detail from the pew decor to the ceremony pieces were reused at the reception.  We even did their guest favors which were lucky bamboo in a square vase.  Nina & Igor are also extremely talented photographers.  You can read Nina & Igor’s lovely testimonial here.  Congratulations to the both of you, and I am so extremely honored to have been a part of this absolutely perfect day!
