Each and every wedding day is special. No matter which service offering the couple has chosen to hire me for, I love being part of a day that celebrates love. Meaghan and Mike’s August wedding was elegant, intimate and it came with an unique twist for me because I was also a bridesmaid. That’s right, I traded in my binder and flats for a bouquet and high heels and boy-oh-boy, it was SO. MUCH. FUN!
Edgewater Manor, located in Stoney Creek nestled along the shore of Lake Ontario, provided the picture perfect setting for their I do’s. From the stone staircase in the lobby to the manicured grounds, Edgewater Manor is a spectacular venue. Meaghan and Mike’s ceremony (performed by Beverly King of All Seasons) was short and sweet and afterwards guests mingled on the terrace for cocktail hour before heading inside to the Morris Room for dinner and an evening of dancing.
Meaghan and Mike entrusted Shelley from Wine Country Floral to create magic and well, she NAILED it! The bouquets were full of texture and a perfect blend of soft and bold colours. The stunning arbour installation, with blush and ivory drapes, was later repurposed after the ceremony to the head table. To compliment the opulant features of the Morris Room, the long rectangular guest tables were completed with simple arrangements in clear small vases, tealights and accented with Italian ruscus, which is always a classic choice to add fresh greenery.
Tony and Danielle of Little Blue Lemon kept the bridal party laughing all day while effortlessly capturing all the simple pretty details and heartfelt moments perfectly.
A BIG massive thank you is needed to my biz bestie, Dianna of Amavi Event Planning and Design, for holding it down that day by overseeing set up and coordinating all the activities planned so I could actually take off my planner hat, pick up a drink and fully enjoy the day watching my best friend marry her love.
Happy One Year Meaghan and Mike!
