Joie & Colin’s Wedding at NeXT Kanata

December 23, 2015 / no comments

A long over due post about an amazing wedding we planned and executed back in June. I LOVED THIS WEDDING. Everything about this wedding was fabolous, laid back, beautiful and heart warming just like the amazing couple, Joie & Colin!

From the beginning Joie wanted to incorporate colours and themes from St. Vincent where she is originally from. To keep it elegant, we used white, yellow and teal. Using feathers was also a big part of the theme.

Colin & Joie chose to host their wedding at NeXT in Kanata known for its amazing food and service. They chose to work with our “Wedding in a Box package” to bring their wedding to life. Mitch Lenet Weddings who is also part of our wedding in a box package was on site to capture all the special moments.

The beautiful day started with the first look! Beautifully captured by Mitch Lenet Photography!

What happens when the limo forgets the bride and groom? We try to hitch hike our back in time for the ceremony.

Ah we made it:

The First Dance

And we cannot forget that fun, upbeat father and daughter dance…

How to plan a winter wedding

November 24, 2015 / no comments

Winter is upon us! Who doesn’t like a winter wedding? The great advantages of having a winter wedding is how much you save! Not only is this an off season for many vendors, but it’s an opportunity we urge for you take advantage of as you can save thousands of dollars by having your wedding in this season. If you are thinking of having a winter wedding and not sure how to go about it, we have a few great ideas. Grab a hot cup of coffee or tea and read on.

Planning a wedding in the colder months presents its own challenges but our tips will have you wanting to plan the perfect winter wedding you have ever imagined- we promise!.

SAVE THE DATE: It might be the slow times for a lot of the wedding vendors, but it’s a busy season for a lot of people. Not only is it busy, but it is an expensive time of year with all the holiday shopping, vacations and people taking time off to enjoy the holidays. Your guests may have other commitments and you need to ensure you give them plenty of time & notice for the wedding. You can do this by sending save the date cards as early as 4-5 months prior to the big day.

COZY UP: Think of your guests and how you are going to keep them warm. Provide lots of options to keep your guests warm and comfortable especially during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Make sure you provide some wraps for guests to cover up, hot drinks for right after the ceremony and ask your venue if they provide heating items such as heat lamps, a fireplace area or even heated floors.

WEDDING TIMELINES: Unlike a summer wedding, during winter it gets dark pretty quickly. You need to consider how your day will play out when creating a time line. Photo opportunity is very limited during winter. Give yourself plenty of time for this. Because it gets dark pretty fast, lighting is very important. Ensure you have lots of lights around your venue for photo purposes.

WARM WINTER MENU: Find great and creative ways to incorporate winter themes into your menu. Think of having a hot chocolate station or serve mulled wine and cider! Be creative. Your guests will appreciate this. Coffee and baileys any one? mmmm

Do you need an Engagement shoot

November 16, 2015 / no comments

Engagement shoot are great for practising! Most photographers often include complimentary engagement sessions for their wedding photographer clients. This is hugely important for both the photographer and the couple. It’s a great way for you to get comfortable both with being photographed and with the photographer. It also gives the photographer a great opportunity to get comfortable with your personalities and styles.

Are you or your partner camera shy? Most people that are camera shy tend to hate being photographed and this could make for awkward photos. Your photographer will work with you to make you more comfortable, relaxed so that you look more natural.

Wedding photos from this lovely couple: Here

What do you do with the photos after the engagement shoot? That is up to you! Be creative…

Make Cards (save the dates, thank yous, or holidays)
Update your Facebook profile pictures
Use them as a slide show during your engagement dinner/event

If an engagement shoot is included, take advantage of it. Use it for practise!

Take a look at our Pinterest Engagement board for ideas.
