Nicole and Chris’s big day had all the ingredients to make it the perfectly memorable party and celebration of their love!! I loved the purple decor that made the room pop! You could tell that all the guests had so much fun enjoying the personal touches that they had! You’d never know looking back at the pictures that it rained all day as it was full of so many bright smiles! Congrats Nicole & Chris – we loved being a part of your awesome wedding!

Describe the vision/theme you had for your wedding in 5 words or less: Activity packed fun party
What are you favorite memories of your wedding day?
Bride: Seeing my new husband smiling and laughing and have such a great time. Seeing all the guests having fun and staying to enjoy the party,
Groom: Seeing my bride to be coming down the aisle. Seeing old friends and watching everyone enjoy themselves.
Best wedding related decision: Not limiting our guest list (reaching out to old friends) and each vendor we chose.
Bride’s favourite detail: The small picture frames of my dad and my puppy intertwined in my bouquet.
Groom’s favourite detail: The suit he chose.
Advice for future brides & grooms: Remember on the wedding day (while the girls are getting ready) to provide food and refreshments. Secondly provide activities to keep the guests engaged. We really wanted our guests to have fun. We wanted the guests to stay and party (which they did) If you want your guests to dance you as the bride and groom need to be dancing too.
Would you change anything if you could do it all over again? No we thought the day was amazing
Best surprise of the day: We still had a full dance floor and guests not eager to leave at 1am!
Anything else you’d like to add: When booking vendors pick people with good reputations. Positive feedback from others and the ability to keep you on schedule. We are so pleased with everyone we worked with. HRM in particular. Heather kept our families organized and did a great job.
