Shana & Sean’s Jewish meets Trinidad wedding with Carnival headdresses and a huge reception surprise
Jewish traditions meet Trinidadian traditions at this fabulous wedding in Toronto. We’re talking Carnival headdresses, salsa dancing flash mob-style, a gorgeous chuppah, a chair dance, the Hora, and even a caricaturist at the reception. Don’t miss the bride’s adorable short dress with sleeves, lantern “bouquets” turned centerpieces, and the piece de resistance: their amazing multiple choice quiz announcement at the reception.
Spy the fashion, Pakistani food, and mini grand piano at Vrinda & Michael’s giggly elopement
We heart elopements, especially when everything seems to just come together serendipitously, like the cake shop next door to the massage place you’re at. This sweet and tiny elopement has everything you’d want: fabulous fashion and jewels, delicious Pakistani food, and even a mini grand piano that came from a convo only a week into their dating!
Erin & Mark’s retro, book-inspired, freethinking wedding
Book-lovers, Toronto-lovers, and gorgeous-wedding-lovers: follow me to your wedding bliss. Book page rose centerpieces, book cover programs and table numbers, library card place cards, and so many more bibliophile deliciousness abound. But the bride’s way of dealing with her grief around planning may just bring a tear to your eye.
Courtney & Jason’s li’l Las Vegas pin-up wedding
Las Vegas isn’t really known for subtle and intimate, but this pair made it happen, complete with a pin-up-inspired backdrop at a 1950s-styled Las Vegas wedding chapel. Add a twirly dress and crinoline, a ceremony high-five, and some “zombie faces,” and this was a retro-fab party. Add on the big Toronto reception a month later, and the celebration was complete. Oh, and wait until you see the surprise ring from the bride!
