Ingrid and Ryan first met while playing on the same softball team. Ingrid and Ryan call the beginnings of their relationship "awkward, insistent and at times standoffish". But when they began seriously dating in the summer of 2017, they soon knew they were meant to be together.

Winter Wedding at Hockley Valley Resort: Elyse + Rob
Rumour has it that when Elyse and Rob met, he was smiling as he was texting her and all the guys knew something was up. Elyse, on the other hand, was carefully choosing all the right things to say, reading her text messages over to her Mom or her best friend Courtney for approval. But it didn't matter because Elyse and Rob clicked right away, sharing candid and open conversations without hesitation. Over time, they realised how emotionally connected they truly are and how they can read each ...

Traditional Hindu Wedding The Warehouse: Ramiya + Kumaran
Ramiya and Kumaran's wedding at The Warehouse included a traditional Sri Lankan Hindu ceremony but with modern and elegant decor elements.

Classic Fall Wedding at The Doctor’s House: Angela + Ryan
Angela and Ryan met online three years ago and hit it off right away. Their first date lasted about eight hours and felt like three first dates rolled into one. They met for lunch at the Three Brewers on Yonge followed by a movie at Yonge and Dundas Square. While most people would have ended the date there, they were having such a great time so they had decided to head over to Snakes and Lattes at Bathurst and Bloor. Of course there was a wait for a table, so we decided to wander around Honest ...

Caitlin kept her bridal style very classic and romantic. I ...
Estates of Sunnybrook Fall Wedding: Samantha + Richard
On Samantha and Richard's first date, they headed to Niagara. When the server at Peller Estates asked them whether they would like to have some wine, Richard's response was "it's always noon somewhere". It was the line that got Samantha and they now love to regularly take trips to Niagara together. We arrived early in the morning to capture their Chinese tea ceremony at Samantha's home. Unfortunately this October day was a chilly and a little wet, so they opted to have their wedding ...
Sweet Church + Chateau Le Parc Wedding: Joelle + Ernest
Joelle and Ernest's wedding day was beautifully decorated with contemporary elements in blush, light grey and gold.

It was so nicely featured on their wedding invitation as well on the screen up at their ceremony. Their wedding day started off at home where Joelle got ready with her bridesmaids and her family. Her maid of honour was her sister, Tiffany who was there for every step ...
