Sarah & Ryan’s Toronto Island love festival
Almost every aspect of our 130-guest wedding was handmade. We sewed tablerunners and hankies, Gocco-ed the invitations, and bound little books for guest favours. My bridesmaid made my wedding band, a milliner friend updated my mother’s veil for me, and my brother and sister in law designed the wine labels for our homemade wine. There are too many DIY details to list here!

Danae & Dougie’s 50’s-style, Lego & candy wedding
To put it briefly, we really didn’t want a “classy” wedding, we wanted a fun wedding. I’m not a classy woman, so why try to turn myself into one for just one day? Both of us are well-known for being big kids, so we went with that and set out to have a fun, happy wedding that incorporated the things we love.
