Wedding Celebrations

The gorgeous gown.....softy pleated

The wedding I went to on Friday got me thinking. 
About family and love and celebrations.
As parents, we are always wanting our children to be safe and happy.
For their lives to be full and them to be emotionally fulfilled. 
When they get married, we have that safety net for them.......................of another person loving and caring for them as much as we do, with their best interests at heart.  Another person to protect them and be there for them.


We gather our families and friends, dress in our finest, and celebrate their happiness with food and drink and gifts and dancing.  A milestone in life...a sacrement for some, a new path and direction.
I came away from this wedding thinking how loved this couple were and how much joy and excitement there was in the room for them. 
 This was a day to tell them how important and special they were.

I love to do photo collage and put together some of my snaps for the bride.....I thought you may enjoy seeing some.  Not wanting to invade their privacy, I haven't included any of the people there or the couple, but these are some of the gorgeously fabulous details.

The Venue.........in Toronto....
The details......

As the evening progressed, the room started to glow.....

The bride had a beautiful 1940's style chignon, with this gorgeous feathered embellishment.

Wedding cupcakes

Architectural details....the venue was right across from Conrad Black's office....

  14. The wedding celebration in vineyard means you'll be offering a more romantic setting and providing then the whole assembly with an uncommon outing possibility.The inquire at the myriad vineyards in different areas, and generally they'll be equipped with an experienced crew and all things required for a the wedding celebration. A vineyard is usually designed a bit like a farm with roomy and often quaint house in the middle of a vast garden.
