The Wedluxe Show at Arcadian Court was one spectacular presentation showcasing some of Toronto’s leading wedding industry vendors. We were thrilled to be a featured area and created the most magical space, a true inspiration for brides. We were honoured to create and share the space with our dear and talented friends, wedding planner Laura from Laura & Co. Events as well as Jarar and Zehra from Fine Cakes by Zehra. Our Parisienne Blossom Garden was a feast for the eyes and it was hard to miss our massive cherry blossom tree towering over 20 feet tall. It took our team a full day to create the masterpiece but what a spectacular sight it was. Equally if not more impressive was the nine foot tall cake named ‘Charlotte’ created by Zehra. It was indeed truly breathtaking and had most lookers starstruck! Other features in our booth were a floral wall created for Lauras’ area as well as a beautiful and extravagant head table. Crystal bowls loaded with flowers graced the mirrored table top along with crystal candelabras and candlesticks. The booth was photographed by the super talented L’Atelier Lumber.
Botanical Gardens Navy and Peach Wedding
On a very hot and humid August day we were honoured to co-produce this beautiful wedding creative for Wedluxe Magazine with our sweet friends and wedding planners at Laura & Co. Events. The floral experience at the Toronto Botanical Gardens was inspiration overload with their beautiful walls of hanging ivy and foliage and gardens of boxwood hedges. Yes this would be the perfect venue for our Walls Of Babylon inspired shoot. Captivated by the beauty and lushness of this historical architecture, we would embrace the beauty of the Botanical Gardens to set the stage for a spectacular coral and navy tablescape loaded with luxurious flowers and gold vessels. As fate would have it, our timing was perfect! The venue was on a rampage of trimming all the hedges and overhead hanging greens for which we were able to re-cycle on our gorgeous stone and floral gazebo, loaded with flowers. Among other industry greats, we were able to work alongside our friend Sam, from Visual Cravings who captured every detail with incredible sharpness and beauty!

A Coral And Navy Wedding At One King West
It always is a pleasure to design weddings at the beautiful and historical Toronto Event venue, One King West. Kelly and Tyler’s elegant fall wedding recently featured on Wedluxe was no exception. The cherry on top was working along side such talents as Paper and Poste, Laura & Co. and Ikonica, all leaders in the Toronto wedding industry. The floral and decor was classic and sophisticated. Coral flowers and gold accents was the colour palette choice for Kelly and Tyler. The perfect accent to the navy blue bridesmaids dresses and linens.
