One of the amazing things about getting married in Toronto is that you have so many options available to you when it comes to picking a wedding venue. While having so many options is a wonderful thing, it can also create a lot of indecision and confusion.

Nowadays more and more couples are foregoing their Saturday wedding in June for a Thursday wedding in March. Others are trading in their buffet dinner at a banquet hall for gourmet multi-course meals at hotels or wineries.

Some of your wedding planning decisions are going to be bigger than others. Some of them are going to set the stage for your entire wedding.

And one of those is your wedding venue. It’s the backdrop of the entire occasion. It’s what you’ll imagine or picture in the months and years afterward.

I’m sure that feels like a lot of pressure when it comes to selecting a place. But don’t worry! I’ve put together a list of my top 5 tips on how to choose the perfect wedding venue. And I’m sharing some incredible wedding venues in the Greater Toronto Area, Niagara, and beyond!

What does a wedding planner actually do? And do I need one?

Most people know what happens behind the scenes before the wedding day. What a lot of people don’t know is that our work doesn’t end when the planning ends. A lot of what I do for you is actually make your day feel as stress-free and seamless as possible.

While many people think I spend wedding days standing around and “overseeing” the event, I actually spend a lot of time doing odd jobs you wouldn’t expect. I will carry your train while you walk, pin your groom’s boutonnière, light your candles, remove your veil, fix your hair/makeup, direct your guests, grab you food and drinks, and so much more.

I’m there to be your wedding day bestie and personal attendant, which means taking on some strange tasks sometimes so that you can enjoy yourself. That being said, since we’ll see so much of each other, we need to click on a personal level (think about it, you don’t want someone you find annoying in your face all day at your wedding).

So if you need someone to help you put your heels on, guard the bathroom door, track down your grandpa, keep those feet warm, get you both laughing for the camera, or refill your champagne glass, I’m your girl!

DM me today to book a complimentary consultation to see if we would be a good fit to help you with your special day!

This was supposed to be a dark and gloomy day. The week before we had to wear heavy jackets to rehearse because it was so cold. Somehow, the sun shone down on this incredible couple and they had a perfect (warm) outdoor wedding in October!

K & J are so genuine, kind, and in love. I’m so thankful that I got to be a part of their wedding and I can’t help but be filled with joy when I look back at their gorgeous photos.

What a beautiful day this was celebrating K & P!

While they couldn’t have their pup be a part of their ceremony, this couple didn’t want to miss out on having him in their family photos.

Want to include your doggo in your special day? There are some wonderful vendors out there that specialize in dog handling for your wedding. This is a stress free and affordable way to make sure your special little guy is taken care of and still gets to be a part of the festivities!

Send me a DM if you want some referrals for dog handlers for your wedding day!

The New Year often comes with a lot of “firsts”… some fun firsts and some not so fun.

Pro tip: when it comes to your wedding, it’s easy to miss out on some of those important firsts. Plan them ahead of time so that they are memorable and you can cherish them.

This bride had a bunch of beautiful “firsts” on her day. First look with her parents, first look with her in-laws, first look with her bridesmaids, first kiss, first dance!

Swipe to see some of these special moments.

Ps: Doesn’t she just look stunning? No wonder everyone got so emotional!

Merry Christmas everyone!

I will be taking some much needed time off for the holidays over the next couple weeks to celebrate with my family. We have a bunch of family traditions that I’m excited to enjoy.

We always celebrate with the grandparents on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so we take Boxing Day to ourselves and we make our own special breakfast and dinner and we open presents and do some Christmas baking in front of a Christmas movie. It’s a fun way to extend the festivities and make special memories with our kiddos.

Any suggestions for the Christmas movie we should watch this year?

Happy Friday everyone!
There are a few new people here and I wanted to take a minute to officially introduce myself.

My name is Dora, and I’m a wedding planner, wifey, mama, and friend to many.
My job is to help you recapture the fun of your engagement season by curating dreamy weddings that are tailored to you.

A couple fun facts about me:

1. I love the warm weather so I usually hibernate in the winter time except around the holidays.

2. I started embracing my curly hair in 2020 because I was staying home during the pandemic but now it’s like a part of my personality.

3. I love getting cute nail designs and mani/pedis are pretty much my only personal time.

Also, this romantic tablescape deserves its own moment, but swipe for a sneak peak of this beauty by the dream team!

Romantic. Whimsical. Intimate.

That’s what comes to mind whenever I see this sweetheart table that we designed for K & P this summer.

Asymmetrical florals, flowy fabrics, and a variety of candles have a special place in my heart. If you’re looking for a special and simple sweetheart table, look no further.

I used to cry at every wedding I attended. Nowadays it takes a lot more to bring me to tears, but the amount of love between these two definitely had me wiping my cheek a couple of times.

Also, do you prefer a choreographed or spontaneous first dance? I tend to like spontaneous dances with a couple of choreographed dips and twirls thrown in.

Unpopular opinion: I still love bright and bold colours for weddings.

The world as a whole, including the wedding industry, has an obsession with pretty neutral colours. And don’t get me wrong, I love neutrals too! In fact, they are usually my preference for a beautiful elegant wedding.

But once in a while I get to work with a really fun bride who wants a lot of bright colours to reflect her personality.

Here’s the thing… you don’t have to have to follow a trend or do what’s normal just because everyone else does. Your wedding is a reflection of who you are! If you want bold colours instead of neutrals, or you want a wedding pretzel instead of wedding cake, do it!

Just make it true to you and I promise it’ll still be beautiful.

Many couples often feel like their wedding day was a bit of a whirlwind and they didn't really get to enjoy special moments with each other or their family members and friends.

*Spoiler alert*

This doesn't have to be the case!

Plan to include these special moments in your day-of itinerary and give yourselves a little extra time to bask in your love for one another.

One way to elevate your wedding design is to upgrade your tableware and use luxury rentals!

While many couples rent charger plates (such as these romantic white Juliet chargers 😍), the upgraded dinner plates, cutlery, and glassware will take you from simple elegance to luxury wedding in no time.

Make sure your entire tablescape reflects the theme and atmosphere you want to create with little details like place cards, menus, and floral touches.

This girl squad had so much fun celebrating their bride!

One of the things I always tell people when they are selecting their bridal party is not to choose people based on how long they’ve known them or if they’ve been a bridesmaid for them.

Choose people that you’re close to who are genuinely happy for you and are going to be willing to help you and celebrate you along the way. You don’t want a bridesmaid who isn’t happy to be there or makes things about them.

How hours does the average bride spend staring at their left hand to admire her rings and hours on Pinterest looking for manicure ideas?

Don’t forget to take some close up shots of your hands to capture those details that might be missed but meant so much to you!

I just love J’s unique wedding band and her pretty pink nails. They’re perfect for a timeless and elegant wedding.

Choose your wedding details carefully and make sure your photographer gets some beautiful photos for you to remember them!

I remember distinctly choosing jewelry that was gifted to me by my mom and my aunt for my wedding. They were pieces that they gave me when I turned 16.

I also wore the perfume that I wore when my husband and I first start dating because he remembered it and it was special to him.

I’ve even saved some things for my daughters to use if they want!

If you want some really beautiful detail shots, bring a copy of your invitation suite and ask your photographer to come a little early to take photos of everything while you are getting ready so you are not rushing to put on shoes and jewelry so you can leave.

It’s pouring rain out today which usually has me a bit bummed, but looking back on this beautiful rainy wedding from last summer has me remembering the bright spots on a dark day.

Some tips for hosting outdoor weddings in our unpredictable Canadian weather:

💧 Always have a backup plan like an alternative location (barn, inside the hall, etc) or a tent as backup.

💧 It never hurts to have some umbrellas on hand and some planners bring them for their couples. Cute rain boots can make for some fun photos too!

💧Ask your photographer what their rain plan is. This photographer had all her rain gear on hand, including something to protect her camera so she could shoot outdoor photos.

How beautiful are these bright florals and joyful smiles?
R & W made the most of their rainy photo session and got a lot of fun pictures with their family and bridal party.

Couples are often worried about tall centerpieces disrupting conversations, but on round tables they actually don’t make much of a difference!

Here’s a little secret, and a tip to help you out:

Usually at a round table people only chat with those beside them. Also, the guests across the table are far enough away that the centerpiece doesn’t really block them.
If this is a concern for you, stick to low centerpieces on harvest tables and use these high pieces as accents on round tables.

I was rewatching an episode of today and realized that this venue was actually one of the amazing Toronto locations featured in the show!

As a wedding planner, when I ask about decor, I often hear couples say “our venue is so beautiful, we don’t really need much to decorate it.” This is definitely the case at this historic venue in Toronto.

Family.

That’s what your wedding is all about. The new family you are creating when you share those vows.

So find a way or a space to feature your family and some of those beautiful memories you have created!

Many couples choose to do this by featuring a welcome table full of photographs and special trinkets that are significant to them like T & B did here.

Some do it through slideshows or special performances. Whatever you do, allow your personality to shine through so that it is uniquely your family that is on display.
