October 24th, 2015

J & C had originally inquired about decorating and takedown services, but ended up adding Day of Coordination services! I LOVED their colour scheme, decorations, and everything they had planned for their wedding. Again, I was giving full "creative freedom" for their wedding as far as decorations went!
 
The backdrop came from Special Event Rentals based out of Red Deer. Everything else the bride and groom purchased during their engagement. I loved that they added in flowers, pumpkins, leaves, apples, and that they used fall colours along with brown and burlap.
 
Being that I absolutely love the colours of fall and pumpkins, made decorating that much easier. When J told me that I could have some creative freedom and they trusted me to make their day complete, I was overjoyed, and I had a vision in my head, long before I told them I did. I love how the colours all came together and complimented each other, and the flowers added a little pop of colour. Everywhere there is tulle in the photos, there are white lights under it to make it glow.

I met with R & D several times throughout their wedding planning process. They were a pleasure to work with, always had challenging questions, and were an organized couple! They hired me to do Day of Coordination and takedown for their wedding.
 
I love the colours they chose, they aren't your standard colours, but they suited their style and personality. Below, you'll see quilting squares, this is their guestbook. You wrote your well wishes on the quilting square and later on they will be turned into a really nice hand made quilt! I hope I get to see the finish product, I think it's a fantastic keepsake from your wedding day.
 
R & D had some really neat and intriguing traditions in their families, that had been passed down many generations. By the cake, you can see a sword, this sword was used to cut their Icelandic Cake (I'm sorry guys, I cannot remember the name of it), this was a tradition is his family. R's family did tequila shots!
 
I loved working with R & D throughout their wedding planning process, and I am so happy that I was able to provide information, stress relief, and that their wedding night went smoothly and as planned!

I loved working with N & B, they were very relaxed and wanted to have fun and enjoy their wedding. I was given the opportunity for a little "creative freedom" for their wedding, I was hired for Day of Coordination, but there was a few little details I was asked to complete.
 
They went for simple and elegant, and this wedding was just that. Their ceremony was held outside at Canyon Ski Hill, although it was a little windy, the day was otherwise nice. I really love the atmosphere that Canyon Ski Hill offers in their banquet room. It's rustic, but will suit any and all themes and colour schemes.
 
As you can see, there are mini cupcakes paired with their cutting cake. There were 13 different flavours of mini cupcakes from a lady based out of Sylvan Lake. They're so flavourful and delicious, not to mention how cosmetically pretty they are!

A hired me to do decorating, takedown and Day of Coordination for their beautiful Kananaskis wedding. The ceremony originally was set to be outside, however the hotel cancelled the plan because it was raining. It was unfortunate because the view they had for their ceremony was stunning.
 
At first I wasn't sure of the colours A had chosen, Peacock Blue and Purple. They were different, and I wasn't sure how well they would go together. See for yourself below, they looked incredible paired together. Her centrepieces had real flowers, and smelled amazing! The Cigar Bar was something new to me, I haven't seen one at a wedding before. I like that it added an extra special personal touch as the groom enjoyed cigars. Lets talk about the cute twig hearts on the cupcakes, they were on EVERY cupcake, and there was a gorgeous "F" for their cake topper. Everything looked stunning in the end, as you can see in the photos below! This wedding was at the Delta Kananaskis, which truly was beautiful!

C hired me to assist her with their vow renewal. She was incredible to work with and had so many fantastic ideas. Their vow renewal was in the Banff Springs Hotel, which is STUNNING.

I did the set up and take down for this vow renewal with approximately 12 guests. They picked an incredible venue, the views were stunning, the architecture was beautiful, and the landscaping around the Banff Springs Hotel just completed the package.

I was hired by A to do their decorating and take down. Their wedding was held at the Black Knight Inn in Red Deer. Just like the other venues I have worked with this year, the staff at BKI were fantastic and really helpful!

I had an assistant for this wedding, and I am so glad I did because it gave me more time to focus on the fine details, and making sure the chair sashes looked fantastic. I loved the colours they used, and how everything turned out.

The chair covers were spandex and wrapped around each leg individually, they were accompanied by satin eggplant purple sashes and runners. Each table was dressed in white with a purple satin runner, purple rose petals and diamonds, along with a diamond and orchid centrepiece that had purple lighting.

There was approximately 90 people at this wedding, and set up took 5 hours with my assistant and myself, takedown took 2 hours between the two of us.

For S & A's wedding, I did Day of Coordination, with minimal set up. The day was windy and rainy off and on, which made it a little challenging to keep everyone dry, and everything standing for their outdoor ceremony. BUT the rain broke for the duration of the ceremony and started just after they shared their first kiss, what a wonderful way to end an outdoor ceremony.

The timeline for this wedding was unique, they did their first look and photos prior to their 5:00PM ceremony. This was a new adventure for me as I hadn't been a part of a wedding that had a unique timeline like this one.

Their reception had a very intimate and romantic feeling to it, and I just adored the way it turned out!
