The Original Wedding Soiree Bridal Show in Toronto - April 15, 2012

I hope that all of you have been taking time out from your busy lives to enjoy the (somewhat freaky) mid-March summer weather :) We have been keeping really busy lately with some awesome commercial jobs, and are now starting to get really excited for our next wedding show - The Original Wedding Soiree - coming up on April 15th at the gorgeous 1 King Street West in Toronto.

Always a fan of a good theme party, I'm so thrilled that the lovely Renee of Weddings For Her has planned this event with a 1920's Parisian theme! It's going to be such an amazing event, and there are so many fantastic boutique wedding vendors who will be there, including Blair Nadeau Millinery, CurlyGirl Flowers, Love, Paper & Ink, Sara Baig Designs, and many more. We're talking about some serious beauty here - so if you're planning a wedding or know someone who is, be sure to mark April 15th on your calendar and come down to say hi and check it out!

In celebration of spring and all things beautiful, we'll even be extending our amazing offer of a FREE 16x20 custom piece of wall art while we're at this event - come see us for details and be sure to have a look at this post to see what the heck I'm talking about ;)

Looking forward to seeing you there :)

Natalie + Chris - Beautiful Muskoka Wedding

Thanksgiving weekend brings to mind all sorts of cozy fall thoughts.. family getting together, turkey dinners, pumpkin pies, crunchy leaves on the ground, crisp fall air. This Thanksgiving weekend we went up to Muskoka to photograph Natalie & Chris' wedding, and although the air wasn't exactly crisp (at 30 degrees!) the colours were beautiful and the family enjoyed a spectacular lakeside view. This time I'm going to start you with one of my favourites and then take you back to the beginning.. enjoy :)

(I am so in love with this one!)

 Anyways - here's where we began..

Natalie + Chris got married at the Red Leaves Resort on Lake Rosseau, which was not only beautiful but full of friendly and helpful staff (especially important on your wedding day!) 

ready to start getting ready..

I loved Chris' chocolate brown tie and shoes :)

Natalie's veil was made from part of her Mom's veil, which I thought was so awesome..

Baby Jack! (yes, somehow Natalie + Chris managed to plan their wedding during their son's first year - he is now 13 months old and sooo cute!)

get ready for a seriously beautiful ceremony...

Everyone Loves Flowers :)

Don't get me wrong - I've been enjoying the snow lately and especially the way the light catches a fresh patch of it just before dipping below the horizon - but I have decided that it wouldn't hurt to look at some bright and colourful flowers for a change...
Here are some of my favourite bridal bouquets and wedding floral arrangements of the past little while:

These were from an October wedding, and I LOVED all of the fall colours and the variety of textures and shapes - all day I just never got sick of looking at them!
