Steve And Allesandras Stunning Modern Garden Tent Wedding At Aga Khan

January 12, 2026January 7, 2026 by Rachel

Steve and Allesandra’s beautiful modern garden wedding at the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto showcased wedding flowers in their most elevated, artful form, creating an unforgettable setting for both the ceremony and reception. A modern garden wedding set beneath an elegant tent at the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto was transformed into a breathtaking floral moment, true to the refined, and artistic aesthetic Rachel A. Clingen is known for. The stunning design was organic, abundant, and naturally elegant, with layered flowers framing the space in a soft, garden-forward way. For the reception, a striking modern black-framed tent structure defined the atmosphere, making this one of the most inspiring tent weddings at Aga Khan. Guests dined unter sculptural oversized olive trees, bringing height, texture, and a sense of indoor-outdoor luxury to the design, while dramatic oversized drum chandeliers added warmth and a refined glow. Every detail—from the wedding flowers to the architectural elements—worked together to create a modern, immersive garden experience. We worked closely with the talented wedding planning team at Sincerely Yours Events. Full list of vendors at bottom of post.

Brittany & Ethans Beautiful Backyard Tent Wedding

June 29, 2022June 23, 2022 by Rachel

Planning a wedding around pandemic restrictions meant that Ethan and Brittany had to make some shift in plans. But that didn’t stop these love birds from finding a way to host the most magical and dreamy wedding. Their once larger scale venue planned wedding, would instead end up being the most intimate and beautiful event hosted in the brides parents backyard. Working closely with Toronto wedding planner Michelle from Fab Fete, our team transformed a clear top tent into a dreamy garden for both the ceremony and reception. The sweet couple who grew up just five minutes apart said their I do’s under a gorgeous floating floral chuppah for their jewish ceremony. During the cocktail hour around the pool, we transformed the tent once again to the most stunning reception space and created modern garden vibes. Accented with table top floral bridges and the most beautiful collection of crystal and candles the guest tables brought sophistication and elegance to this backyard affair. We asked Brittany why they chose us to create the magic for their special day. “We chose Rachel A. Clingen, because we felt that no one can do what their team can.” Brittany added.. “I also liked that every event they create is unique and never a copy!” Thankyou Brittany! Mazel Tov to our beautiful couple!

Christopher And Sarah’s Beautiful Wedding At Copper Creek

February 7, 2020February 7, 2020 by Rachel

Christopher and Sarahs’ modern garden wedding at Copper Creek was the perfect look for this stylish couple. Their high school romance blossomed and the couple’s wedding was an expression of their love story. Sarah wanted a ‘garden wedding’ look but wanted to to ensure the look was sophisticated and included some chic elements while retaining a classic feel. Our stunning lucite canopy structure was detailed with cascading florals and trailing greens. It was the perfect mix of modern and classic. Our team designed the space at Copper Creek to include life size ficus trees, which canopied over guest gallery tables. Another edgy detail was the mirrored reflective details that were used through out the decor including, charger plates, floral containers and tree planter boxes. Congratulations Christopher and Sarah! Such a pleasure to work with you on your dream wedding. Also a pleasure to work alongside Diana Pires Events on this lovely wedding.
