SOMALY & CHRIS | Adamo Estate Winery Summer Wedding

Adamo Estate Winery Wedding - 24.jpg

We were counting down to Somaly and Chris’s Adamo Estate Winery wedding since their engagement session, because we knew how stunning these two look on any given day so undoubtedly they were beyond stunning on their wedding day!

Although they shared a loft style hotel room at the Hockley Valley Resort, we have coordinated well to not give away anything for their first look! While I was working on some bridal details, Chris got ready first and headed out the doors with Warden to the first location at the winery. Then Somaly came down to get finish off the preparation photos and I drove us to meet the boys. Ta-da, it works!

In her beautiful off-shoulder laced wedding gown, Somaly looked absolutely stunning coming up from behind Chris to ask him to turn around to see her for the first time in her wedding dress. It’s no wonder he couldn’t take his eyes off her! Their first look was a sweet intimate moment together and it was all smiles.

We have photographed the beautiful couple around the venue before families and guests arrived for group photos and ceremony. In substitution of unity candles or sand-pouring ceremony, they opted in for a vow/letter placed inside a secured wine box with a bottle of wine that they will open on their 5th year anniversary. So in five years time they will enjoy the wine and read the letters they have written for each other to reminisce on the wedding vibes- how thoughtful is that!

Somaly’s sister gave one of the best maid-of-honour/sister speech during dinner time! It was filled with energy, memories and fun that got the whole room laughing and nodding in agreement. She was young but mighty! Everyone loved her.

A handful of Somaly and Chris’ guests gathered to help with the sparkler exit outside the venue. It was so much fun for the couple to go through sparkler tunnels and have guests cheering them on!

Thank you Somaly and Chris for having us to be part of such a great wedding and document your special day with all your important people. We wish you a lifetime of happiness and blessings! Congratulations again!

NANCY & QUI | Toronto Edwards Garden Wedding

When it comes to planning a fun wedding - and I mean, FUN - Nancy and Qui sure had the right attitude in mind. They made it enjoyable for themselves, their families, and their friends … of course with a little help from the abundance of drinks ;) Don’t worry, a little Hennesey in the morning didn’t affect them too much! The pink ties complemented the blue suits really well, leaving the men with a clean-cut look. We have ourselves some Toronto Raptors fans here. With the Raptors bringing home the NBA 2019 Championship Trophy (read all about it here), Qui got his groomsmen some Raptors jerseys! While the guys were modelling the Titanic pose, the girls in the other suite were elegantly positioned on the bed for some beautiful portraits. There was even a blue wall in the suite to pair with their pretty pink robes - matching their colour theme. 

Nancy, our beautiful bride, looked absolutely stunning in her white wedding gown! She was ready to surprise her groom at their first look! Qui has been patiently waiting for the arrival of his bride and when he saw her for the time, he couldn’t stop smiling! These two were so cute! 

We travelled to Edwards Garden for some bridal and family portraits. It sure was busy during this wedding season at Edwards Garden, but thankfully we found a nice shaded area by the big tree that kept the family staying cool for group photos. 

Since Nancy and Qui already signed their marriage license at city hall the day before, we headed straight to the reception venue at the Royale Fine Dining & Banquet. One of the best things about celebrating a wedding at a Chinese banquet hall is the food - TEN course meal - now who would still be hungry after that?! 

Nancy and Qui value and appreciate each of their guests at the wedding so they decided to capture a photo with each of them in front of their rented flower wall to make memories with everyone that attended. We loved the idea of a beautiful flower wall to receive guests, especially because it creates a clean background for photos! 

Once Qui popped that champagne, the fun really started for everyone! Music, fast-beat dancing, oriental karaoke, prize winning games, bottoms-up-drinks, and sentimental speeches! Speaking of speeches, Qui’s Best Man even brought in a prop, the WWE Championship belt, for the newly wed! It sure was a unique way to send blessings and wishes to the couple, they truly did feel like champs that night! It was a sweet ending to the night, as the couple hired an ice cream truck on this hot summer wedding for their guests to enjoy!  

What a lively crowd to have shared this day with! Thank you Nancy and Qui for having us a part of your special day with your fun families and friends! Congratulations again on your new journey into marriage!
