For those who missed this the first time around…..in July we were so fortunate to work with Andrea & Andrew on their wedding day. We all met up at the beautiful King Edward Hotel in downtown Toronto. The hotel and it’s suites made such an elegant backdrop for the “getting ready” shots of both bridal parties.
The boys were in there suite feeling very comfortable and easy with us; so, it made for some great candid shots. Truly a pleasant way to start the day.
The ladies were in the “Heffner Suite”, which, because of it’s size, made it easy for all of us to move around. We were even able to capture the bridesmaids’ first viewing of Andrea dressed in her gorgeous gown and perfect birdcage. She looked awesome!!
The Bridal parties then travelled in a limo-bus that took them to the Distillery District for the ceremony at Arta Gallery, a last minute change in the day due to the intense heat wave at the time. It served as a choice location and easily added to the elegant theme of their wedding. Everyone looked so great coming down the aisle and their floral bouquets made for a stunning contrast with the painted brick walls. Mary Beaty performed the meaningful ceremony, after which we moved to the courtyard outside for some formal group and family shots.
As we made our way over to Archeo for the reception, we had loads of fun with the wedding party: capturing casual, and fun posed shots. We even took some time alone with the bride & groom and wandered around snapping up fun magazine type poses. Wow they are a great looking couple!!!! Then we joined the others at Archeo were everyone was able to mingle, enjoy the company of newlyweds,get some hydration and get out of the heat!! The restaurant’s beautiful decor and DJ Floh Back‘s cool stylings, laid the foundation for a memorable night.
As mentioned in a previous blog, we then played the engagement video we put together for Andrea and Andrew….much to everyone’s surprise and pleasure!! We also had our Photobooth located in one corner of the restaurant, which was a huge hit with all the guests.
It was a fantastic wedding and a true pleasure to have been part of the celebration.
Good luck to everyone and thank you to Kathleen for all her help on the day, and of course to Kathi for introducing all of us.
May You Grow Old Together On One Pillow!
