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.

We actually have these crystal table number frames for rent in our inventory, email us for availability and more details.

Jennifer & John live in London, England.  We corresponded mostly through email and Skype, (gotta love technology) and then finalized all the details a couple of weeks before the wedding when Jennifer made the trip to T.O.

The ceremony took place in the lush garden of Graydon Hall Manor, which is one of my absolute favorite locations to tie the knot.    The venue for the reception was the spectacular Vanity Ballroom, in the King Edward Hotel in downtown Toronto. Jennifer graciously sent over these absolutely gorgeous pictures, taken by the talented Mark Anthony Studios.

What a gorgeous room.  The ceilings are breathtaking, and so grand….

Here are a few pictures that show a bit more detail of the travel theme that they incorporated into their wedding.  Both Jennifer and John love to travel, and so they gave gorgeous leather inscripted luggage tags as favours to each of the guests.  They cleaverly tucked the napkin inside each tag per place setting, adding another splash of colour on the tables.  There was also a picture of them on each table on vacation, and we labeled the city that they were in on the vase with the floating candle using vellum paper.  We also did their table numbers for them on vellum as well.  It was such an elegant effect, especially since we had 6 floating candles in total per table.

(These pictures were taken by friends and family and RFC)

The centrepiece was a gorgeous happy mix of hydrangea, roses, spray roses lisianthus, tuberose, green goddess calla lilies, and green cymbidium orchids and crystals attached to curly willow.  For the finishing touch, we adorned it with a gorgeous brooch for that added sparkle.

Jennifer & John, this wedding was really special, and we were honoured to be a part of it!  We wish them both a lifetime of happiness together across the pond!

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!

I hope everyone has had a lovely summer and is ready for the warm sweaters and some hot apple pie that the Fall season brings with it.  I happen to LOVE Fall- my favorite time of the year!  We’ve had an amazing summer filled with some pretty gorgeous weddings and we are happy to be able to share them with you.  I hope you are inspired by our recent work you are about to see over the next couple of weeks as we get all our pictures from some pretty fabulous photographers… Oh, and I must mention that we’re fast approaching our 2 year anniversary and we’re cooking up something special to celebrate- Stay tuned for that!

Here are some pictures we did for one of our fab clients’ baby baptism back in June… Such adorable lil’ details and with peonies you really kinda can’t do anything wrong…
