Alex + Frank were married at the Country Lodge (in the loft) in the afternoon of December 31. They originally wanted to be married in a log cabin in the mountains but this was this was a better choice being closer to family. Alex was so relaxed and absolutely stunning. For centre pieces lanterns from ikea war enlaced upon black and silver stars cut from paper and three tea light holders that were modified (mode podgy + marth stewart glitter) surrounded the lantern. Simple, yet very pretty!
Just before midnight champagne and new year’s party items were placed out and a count down started. It was a fabulous party and a great way to start the new year!
Please keep in mind these are my photos, and they really don’t do anyone justice, I’ll post the professional ones from DB Photographics when available.

I don’t normally do this, but these were not normal circumstances. At Tanya + Ken’s wedding, the limo originally hired by the couple did not show up (yes, it happens, which is why you need a wedding planner). I phoned several companies and Rick from Eternity Limousines stepped up on his day off to give the couple the royal treatment on their special day. So for that I highly recommend him. Not only was he professional, his company is well run and has several different limo options. If you are still looking for transportation on your special day, give Rick a call!

This post is a start to several new ones that have been scheduled, it sure has been crazy!
The wedding started out at the U of A Convocation Hall, with a backdrop provided by A Chair to Remember and extraordinary ceremony pieces by Wild Orchid.




Their theme was “Lucky in Love”, as Cory proposed to Lindsay when they were in Las Vegas, very fitting! Take a look at these extraordinary center pieces, with playing cards as table numbers.

Kat + Thomas were married and had their reception at the Union Bank Inn. It is a small but very beautiful venue. They had a casino/Las Vegas theme, with purple and teal being their theme colors (which look spectacular together!)
The bride had made the trees for wishing trees but they were also used at the front of the room beside the fireplace mantel. They had a beautiful custom unity candle and a memory floating candle on each side of the ceremony.



For the reception, they did not want a dance. They wanted a fun money casino that was also a mystery that needed to be solved by the guests. It was extremely neat and the guests definitely enjoyed the change in entertainment. I have more décor photos coming up – you’ll have to see the beautiful centerpieces, but those are being processed by a professional so now these will have to do!

Later I will post some photos from the wedding photographer of the beautiful bride and groom!

Well rain wasn’t exactly what we wanted, but the snow that followed the rain in the evening luckily held off until the evening! Christine and Jon are two extremely beautiful people who are very caring and fun – their smiles were contagious!



(Isn’t she absolutely stunning?)
For their guestbook they had a scroll for people to sign – which they were placing in a bottle (message in a bottle) to save for later on in life.




These favours (Photos to come shortly)were super yummy – and the cake stunning. I haven’t seen that level of work on sugar flowers in a very long time. These ladies at Jam on Your Face are certainly going to be successful, as their work speaks volumes for their attention to detail.


Candy bars are certainly hits at every wedding I go to, they never seem to get old. It’s probably because we’re all kids at heart anyways.

Thank you again for allowing me to be part of your very special wedding. I hope you enjoy your month in Hawaii

I just had to share this wedding I stumbled upon when I was looking for inspiration for a client. It is simple, vintage inspired, and oh so beautiful!



What a cute table, how could you go wrong with the spray painted heart?

This is by far my favorite idea, how awesome and creative is the aisle runner/linner?

Simple and cute center pieces!

First wedding of 2010, and what a beautiful wedding with a fabulous and absolutely stunning couple.
The wedding ceremony was held in the beautiful Jean Baptiste Catholic church in Morinville, Mike’s hometown. The photos below are from the extremely talented Erik Hornung, and are only a sampling, I can’t wait to see the decor and all the rest of the fun bridal party photos!
The reception was held at the Edmonton Garrison Officer’s Mess Hall, flowers were created by Corals, DJ and transportation services from Revolution DJ, catering by Elizabethan.






There was a beautiful blue snowflake brooch in the front of Taryn’s bouquet from her maid of honor, it was a simple and elegant touch.



(this one is my favorite!)



What an absolutely good looking and very sweet couple. Thank you again for choosing me to be a part of your day. It was very special for me and I wish the two of you many years of happiness!

How much fun is this for a guest book? Cute and would tie in easily with any vintage theme. Guests added their words of wisdom for the couple one the typewriter instead of a traditional paper guestbook.
