We went ALL OUT for L+P's wedding weekend. ⁠

From multiple live music performers throughout their three-day celebration, to giant disco balls on the ceiling, to pre *and* post ceremony cocktail hours -- we sure brought one heck of a party to the 🪩 ⁠

"Where do I begin! Dianna from Amavi is one of the most organized, detail oriented, sweetest and authentic person I know! From the start of planning our wedding, to our wedding day, she was amazing. Her way of making sure everything will be absolutely perfect so you can enjoy your wedding day is outstanding. I will be recommending her to all my friends and family looking for a wedding planner, because I know they’ll be in the best hands. When it came to selecting vendors, reviewing contracts, looking after our budget, creating our day of schedule, etc., she was on it! I had numerous people tell me how fantastic of a job she did executing and coordinating our wedding day, and was there to help at any moment. Our wedding day was the literally the best day of our lives and Dianna played a MAJOR part in that. Trust me, if you are considering to hire a wedding planner, you must go with Dianna! Dianna, again, thank you so much for helping [M] and I plan the wedding of our dreams!" ⁠

Other than Starbucks, who else gives out free birthday drinks?⁠ 🎉⁠

When your family lives on a cherry farm, your wedding is bound to be just as sweet as your love story. Two years later and I still can't get over the way these cuties look at each other! 🍒❤️⁠

Weddings at home don't have to be stressful - as long as you have the right team to make it happen!⁠

M+M wanted their wedding to walk the line between upscale and trendy, but with a homey, backyard barbecue feel. We pulled in both soft and earthy elements by using pampas grass and wicker baskets balanced with touches of pastels within the florals and tablescape.⁠

Striking a balance between finding time to spend alone together and sharing the joy with your newly blended family is so important on a day that goes by so quickly.⁠

This was especially true for L+W, whose newest addition to the family arrived just three months before the big day. Baby S was just the cutest little ring bearer you ever did see - and had the best big brothers to teach him the ropes!⁠

L+W dreamed of a fairytale wedding. As huge Disney fans, we knew we needed to incorporate subtle nods to their favourite love stories - but without making things feel too over-the-top or gimmicky. ⁠

With a thoughtful colour palette incorporating Beauty and the Beast and Cinderella blues, we brought their happily ever after to life by giving a candlelit 'tale as old as time' feel. Warm golds and small personal touches that spoke directly to the couple's love of Disney brought their vision together in a subtle but romantic way that could only be described as enchanting.⁠

C+E had been friends since childhood and fell in love as they became adults - so it was just the most beautiful thing to witness their years-long relationship coming full circle. ⁠

The sweetest touch was their wedding song, ‘Harvest Moon’ by Neil Young, to commemorate their wedding taking place on the weekend of the autumn equinox. ⁠

C+E and I worked together for over two years to meticulously curate every element of their beautiful day. Inspired by keeping things timeless, elegant, and luxurious in every way, the ‘modern classic’ aesthetic the couple dreamed of was present in every single detail. ⁠

When, after two and a half years of planning, you finally get to have that first look ♡⁠

N+G were one of the many couples who had to make the difficult decision to postpone their wedding during the pandemic. It made seeing these moments finally come true for them all the more sweet - exactly one year to the day after their original wedding date!⁠

Weddings are definitely not 'one-size-fits-all,' so don't be afraid step outside the box to curate special-to-you moments and memories that will last a lifetime!⁠

For R+M, creating these special moments meant carving out some quality alone time with their two adorable little boys after their ceremony with a quiet picnic in the forest, tucked away from all of the festivities and hustle and bustle of the day.⁠

It's all about those moments for me - shaping the special memories and the warm, fuzzy feelings you'll remember long after your wedding day has come and gone. This one will forever stay with me as one of my favourite little details from R+M's beautiful day ♡⁠

These are the smiles of two newlyweds enjoying every. single. moment. of their best. day. ever!⁠

R+M put 100% of their trust in me to design (and create!) every single detail for their wedding day - and I couldn't be happier to be able to say that their vision came to life pretty darn flawlessly.⁠

(Also, someone please teach me how to make those fancy multi-photo carousels... because it was SO hard to narrow this post down to just ten faves!) ⁠

R+M's picture-perfect day was the boho wedding of your dreams!⁠

With texture on texture, big over-the-top florals, and a few unexpected elements like touches of blush to soften the otherwise very seasonal colour palette, we really brought this idea of a luxe and editorial-inspired boho-chic wedding day to life. ⁠

To celebrate N+J's first anniversary today, a few faves from their magazine-worthy first look. There's just something about these shots by that tugs right at my heart strings!⁠

N+J bucked tradition at every turn to create a wedding day that was a total vibe and perfectly authentic to them. They knew their night was going to be one heck of a party, so we made sure to set the entire afternoon aside for a private rendezvous, allowing them the chance to simply enjoy each other's company and share a few moments of calm together before the excitement of the day really kicked off.⁠

(PS... does it get any cuter than those matching sneakers?! 😍)⁠

A+M brought such a fun and colourful Indian-Egyptian fusion to their reception. After dinner, everyone changed into their cultural attire, and Bollywood dancers from the incredible opened the dance floor as the sun set. It was nothing short of magical to see such a light and airy space transform into a room full of bright colours and so much warmth right before your eyes. ⁠

Bringing in elements of your cultural backgrounds is such a unique and special way to help celebrate where you come from and where you are going in your journey together.⁠
