{ Angie and Ken Get Married }

In addition to working with amazing couples, part of loving my job is also working with amazing vendors.  If I had a dream team, it would have to be the vendors from this wedding.   I wish I could take credit for putting the team together but it was all Angie and Ken.  This couple was hands-on and knew exactly what they wanted for their wedding day.  Did I mention they were a very cute and fun-loving couple?  Indeed they were.  From the moment I first met with them I knew they were perfect for each other, and I could not wait to work with them.

The day was simply magical.  Their ceremony took place at the beautiful and rustic Victoria College Chapel at the University of Toronto, and reception was held at the Crown Prince Restaurant.  It was a traditional yet modern and elegant Chinese wedding reception complete with a lion dance for entertainment.    

Congratulations to Angie & Ken!  I am honoured to be part of your wedding.

{ Jim & Geoffrey Get Married }

I know I've been delinquent in keeping up with my blogs.  It's been 11 months since my second son was born and so it's been really hectic in our home.  Not that it's an excuse but having two rambunctious boys, it takes a toll on you.

Anyway, I am back now and as we are near the end of 2012  I thought I would feature each week some of the weddings I did this year.  One memorable wedding I did was a same-sex wedding back in February. I was the day-of coordinator under Bee-mine Weddings.  When I first met with them a few months before their wedding, we hit it off instantly.  They were fun, creative, and just full of life.  I knew that I would enjoy working with them.  

Their story is just an inspiration and very touching.  They were together for a long time before deciding to make it official, and so it was fitting that they celebrated this memorable day on their actual anniversary day and in front of all their friends and family.

Their wedding was elegant and sophisticated, with a royal blue and gold peacock theme.  They were a DIY couple who did almost everything themselves, which was reflected throughout their wedding; from their wedding invitations, to the centrepieces, right down to their wedding favours.

Congratulations to Jim and Geoffrey!  I am honoured to have been a part of your beautiful wedding.

{ Mary Ann + Mike Get Married }

I had the pleasure of coordinating Mary Ann and Mike's wedding this past Saturday.  They were an awesome couple to work with and their wedding turned out to be absolutely beautiful.  From the moment the stunning bride walked out of the limo, I knew that it was going to be a great and memorable wedding.  Their blue-themed wedding was a huge success - from the Church ceremony to the antipasto bar to start the night, to the Mo Town Boys band serenading the wedding party and guests during dinner, right down to the chocolate fondue and live waffle cake stations during late night desserts.  I'll let the pictures (amateur shots) speak for themselves.
