VICKY & MICHAEL | Micro Wedding

 
Toronto Micro Wedding 33.jpg

Vicky and Michael’s 2020 wedding during this COVID season was not at all expected when they had planned every fine detail of this wedding the previous year. Yet even with the virus bringing the entire world to a grinding halt, their love for one another continued to move them forward over mountains and through a pandemic, to say “I do”.

With much excitement to start their married life sooner rather than later, they pressed on through planning the wedding with what mattered most. Fortunately, Vicky is a wedding planner and a makeup artist, so there was a lot of DIY. She had professionally applied her own makeup and beautifully curled her hair in the morning. They had handcrafted the cherry blossom trees as their backdrop at the house for the tea ceremony. The beautiful bouquets and boutonnieres were handmade by the talented Vicky as well! She acted as multiple vendors in one during this process!

Growing up receiving so much love and sacrifice from their parents, they cherished the opportunity to show respect and love to their parents by holding a traditional Chinese & Vietnamese tea ceremony that brought so much light and joy into this moment of time. Families and friends had even sent them edible gifts to their house to spread the love and joy!

They then made their way to their church to say their vows, exchange their rings, and seal their commitment in love. It was topped by their first kiss that silenced the entire church - literally. Although the pews remained empty, the bandwidth on their phones data spiked from all the family and friends who had attended by video chat. The support and love from everyone filled the entire church creating an energy that will continue to grow in anticipation for their public celebration with everyone face to face next year – Stay Tune!

NANCY & QUI | Toronto Edwards Garden Wedding

 
Toronto Edwards Garden Wedding 26.jpg

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!

VIVIAN & WES | Toronto Fantasy Farm Banquet Wedding

 
Vivian and Wes Toronto Fantasy Fair Banquet Wedding 39.jpg

Vivian and Wes had a beautiful and intimate wedding surrounded by their closest friends and families. They started off the day with Wes bringing trays of gifts to Vivian's parents' home to ask the bride's family for their daughter's hand in marriage, this is known as the Le Dinh Hon. Vivian wore her traditional Ao Dai, traditional Vietnamese garment, and remained in the room until a family member came to ask her to come out. Next the traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony took place where both the bride and groom served tea to all the elders of family as a form of respect. 

Everyone then proceeded to the backyard for the ceremony where Vivian and her family had beautifully decorated. The emotional moment fell upon Vivian during their vow exchange and tears rolled down her cheeks. Joy overflowed the backyard as soon as they were pronounced husband and wife! A celebratory lunch was served in this intimate space where guests enjoyed the mingle time and photos with the bride and groom.

When we arrived to the reception venue at Fantasy Farm for their first look, Vivian changed into her wedding gown and surprised Wes! She was absolutely stunning! We enjoyed so much time photographing portraits of this sweet couple! They both looked great and filled with energy!

Vivian and Wes thank you so much for having us take part in capturing this memorable day of yours and congratulations again!
