Back to 1963!

Emily Post, still the most renowned name when talking etiquette, published her wedding guide in 1963, giving Brides, Grooms and families the very best of her advice.

One of our favourite pieces of advice was:

"The loveliest rule in planning

your wedding is still:

'Whatever you do, do it exquisitely!'"

This principle is not about how much money you spend, it's about how much thought you put into even the smallest of details on your perfect day.

And even more, it applies to the vendors (planner, photographer, florist etc.) that you choose.  Make sure everyone is committed to helping make your day exquisite.



When everyone is on the same page, it's a guarantee that your day will be your  "Perfect Moment!"

Trash the Dress!

"Trash the Dress" is pure bridal fun!

Taken after the Wedding, pictures are shot is locations that may have caused damage to the dress on the wedding day.

Generally the intention is to take photo shots with high fashion style in mind, but every now and then the bride goes wild and literally 'trashes' her dress.

Something Old, Something New......

Everyone is familiar with the Bride's good luck poem...

Something old something new
Something borrowed something blue......

But do you know that there is another line to this now famous quote?

The whole poem is...

Something old something new

Something borrowed something blue

"And a silver sixpence in her shoe"

This line has been left off the poem since the 60's when finding a 'silver' sixpence became difficult.

For awhile the line was adjusted to read "And a penny in her shoe", however, that too has gone by the wayside.

But we love tradition, and we love tradition done in new and fun ways!

Bring back the silver sixpence!!

We have obtained a healthy quantity of sixpence and would love to help you cleverly and creatively add it to your shoe.

Location, Location, Location Part 2

Our Niagara Falls, Ontario site tour included some of the prettiest wedding spots in the region. 
Included in that package is the Butterfly Conservatory/ School of Horticulture.

For years the School of Horticulture has been a prime location for Wedding Photos and for good reason.  With their beautiful arbours, and breathtaking florals, wedding pictures will be memorable! But the School also offers beautiful outdoor wedding/ ceremony options!

The Butterfly Conservatory offers a unique and lovely indoor wedding ceremony location for small and personal weddings. With waterfalls in the background and butterflies floating by, the romance factor is a 'perfect' 10!

For a larger wedding, the Conservatory offers an outdoor upper terrace, and plenty of grassy space to host your 'perfect' wedding.

Our last feature, but certainly not least, is the gorgeous Floral Showcase.  With both indoor and outdoor options for your ceremony and reception, this is a lovely choice.  Among other great features, the Showcase changes it's look with the seasons.

Decor is a snap at both of these locations,  it's already done for you!
