It’s funny how many wedding customs come from the Victorian Era. Something Old – Something New – Something Borrowed – Something Blue…And a Silver Sixpence in Her Shoe is one. The white dress too as prior to the Victorian Era brides wore green, symbolizing fertility, or simply their best Sunday dress or even black. The custom of taking photos to document the event with the newly introduced George Eastman Kodak’s cameras also dates back to those times.
The amount of planning and detail that went into Heba and Phil’s Victorian wedding was staggering and almost impossible to document completely even in our blog entry which turned to be the biggest ever. From Toronto’s Metropolitan United Church, thru Black Creek Pioneer village and Hazelton Manor this is how the day went on.
Enjoy!

Back at Pheasant Run Golf Club with Roni-Lee and Brian for their wedding day. It might be a bit of a stereotype to say this day was filled with emotion but it is not often Sandra and I as wedding photographers are moved to tears by parent speeches. This time however, I was left speechless.
This is a snippet of their day.
Enjoy!

There were a few very hot days here in Toronto so in preparing for this outdoor wedding we were hoping for nicer, cooler weather. We were pretty lucky and save for a bit of wind taking exception with Sheryl’s veil at times, everybody was pretty comfortable. Melissa, the couple’s wedding coordinator made sure everything went together very smoothly. There was of course some jumping, some “pole dancing” and some pretty dazzling air guitar displays, all in good fun.
And yes, the cake WAS delicious :-).
This is a snippet of their Big Day. Enjoy.

Back to the Club at Bond Head with Jen and Kevin for their wedding day. Kevin having a Ph.D. in Chemistry had something to do with all the little details on this day, from the Periodic table inspired cufflinks to a table seating/ numbering chart having nothing to do with numbering except element’s atomic numbers. From Tottenham to McMichael Canadian Art Collection back to the Club at Bond this was definitely a day to remember. It’s not every day one finds out Palladium is just as precious as Platinum and gets to take something other than “tee shots” on a golf course (many thanks go to our gracious hosts at the Club who allowed us on their beautifully groomed course). Oh, we had a Supermoon as well… “According to NASA, a full moon at perigee is up to 14% larger and 30% brighter than one at its furthest point (apogee)”… but who’s counting…
This is just a small snippet of the day. Enjoy!

Imelda and Brian know how to throw a party. When we were told the wedding ceremony and reception will be held at their family estate, we really did not know what to expect. Well everything was impeccable starting with the lovingly manicured estate grounds and beautiful ceremony setting to the fun tent barbeque and party that followed. Oh, let’s not forget the car service :). It is not frequent we get to have a bit of fun with an old shiny Chevy pick-up truck!
This is the story of their day.

This wedding was a bit special for us. We were back in the same house Martha has started her Big Day to document her sister’s wedding. We cannot be more grateful about how the Cowie family has treated us. Katie and Jake wanted to put their special mark on this day and they definitely got everything (save the humidity :)) right. From their heartfelt ceremony at Thornhill’s Presbyterian Church to their reception at the Grand Pavilion in the Black Creek Pioneer Village everything flew seamlessly together. Jake proved himself equally at ease driving off in a stick shift Bimmer and on stage singing with the UW Waterboys.
This is the story of their day.

Kitty and Richard contacted us not too long ago. Their wedding plans were ruined by the big Japan earthquake last March so everything had to be re-done, re-scheduled and re-booked in a hurry. Mission accomplished with accolades, as this was a day perfectly planned and executed. Ceremony and reception at the Bayview Golf and Country Club, location pictures at Richmond Green Park.

This is the second day of K an M’s wedding, the Buddhist ceremony. And the PARTY ! What one photographer can respond when a whole bridal party is saying “we’re doing the jump shot!” but “let me see how high you can do it … show me what you got…” 😉 It quickly became pretty evident just how high they were prepared to jump, despite the midday scorching sun.
This is the largest entry in our blog so far, almost as long as an actual album layout would run. Please be patient as it loads… Enjoy !

Back with K and M for their first wedding day. As ceremonies go, few approach the level of exacting detail this Hindu ceremony did. Sandra and I felt privileged to witness and document this warm, emotion filled event. Sandra even admitted shedding a few tears now and then…
Here’s a small selection of moments from the day.

This is a little bit of a teaser from the wedding we shot this past weekend. From the Toronto’s Metropolitan United Church, stunning place, home of the biggest organ in Canada (8233 pipes!) to Karyia Park where we caught the cherry blossom this was a perfect day, nine years in the making. That of course makes selecting anything for blog display a rather difficult task…
Congratulations Kim and Shawn!
