Rustic Glamping Wedding Inspiration

January 20, 2019January 17, 2016 by Rachel

Rustic, yet luxurious, thats what this wedding creative is all about. The glorious great Canadian outdoors, beautiful flowers and stunning decor bring a new twist on the luxurious camping or otherwise know as glamping experience. When thinking about our next creative challenge to inspire readers of Canada’s luxury wedding magazine, Wedluxe, I was inspired by the natural and rare beauty of the rugged northern Ontario landscape and couldn’t wait to blend rich colours and elegant elements bringing new life to such a un-thought of canvas for a wedding. I grew up in Northern Ontario, and spent many summers in Timmins with family adventures in many of the areas rugged landscapes, so this location was near to my heart. Of course, an incredible collaboration took place to make this all happen. The incredible Toronto, wedding planner, Laura, from Laura & Co. Events gave endless support to such a feat! When discussing the reality of committing to a multiple day shoot over 8 hours away, Laura never hesitated for a minute and dove into this project despite its many challenges. We were blessed to work with an incredibly talented team who also committed to flights and much effort so far away from home and some of Toronto’s top wedding vendors, including Mike and Eric from 5ive15ifteen Photography who nailed every single image.

A Beautiful Bridal Shower At The Chase – Styleshoot

January 20, 2019September 21, 2015 by Rachel

Its finally time to share with you our beautiful chic ‘bridal shower’ creative shoot at the beautiful The Chase Restaurant in downtown Toronto. Together for a fun and creative day, our elite wedding vendor team drew its inspiration from the world of Rachel Zoe – the ever-quotable fashion stylist, editor, and author renowned for her effortless take on glamour. I love the fresh and modern palette of green viburnum flowers, navy, and ivory. The the fashionable and chic stripes found in the beautiful architecture of The Chase inspired us in the different elements of the shoot. Our flowers and decor were a display tailor-made for a luxe bride-to-be. As Rachel Zoe says, “Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.” We worked closely with Toronto wedding planner Laura from Laura & Co. Events, to co-produce this incredible assignment. Incredible photography by our friends at 5ive15ifteen.
