The 2023 wedding season is coming to an end and we’ve been involved in some fabulous celebrations this year.

Including Pets in Your Wedding
Involving pets in your wedding is growing increasingly popular. On your wedding day it’s important to surround yourself with all your beloved guests and for many couples, that includes your furry friends!

There are many ways to incorporate pets in your special day to make it a positive and memorable experience for all guests. Prior to booking your wedding venue, be sure to confirm your venue allows animals on site. Check out our list below for some tips on how to include pets in your wedding day.

What Goes Into A Good Horah?
The horah is our favourite part of any Jewish wedding. The horah is a passionate Israeli dance where guests energetically dance around the couple to klezmer music and this is also the part of the wedding where you’ll see the couple lifted on chairs, tossed on a sheet or balance on a table.
It is an amazing challenge for any photographer or videographer to capture this moment. Will you get sweaty? Yes. Is there a chance you might rip your dress or suit? Yes. Is it worth it? Absolutely!
So, given how integral the horah is to any Jewish celebration, how do you make it happen? Here are some tips to getting everybody at your wedding involved in this lively and brilliant tradition.
Year In Review 2021
2021. Easily the toughest season we’ve EVER experienced. It was a year marked with uncertainty as the pandemic continued to wreak havoc on everything, especially the wedding world. Despite ongoing restrictions and lockdowns in the first half of the year, we still managed to help get 18 couples hitched, manage a national virtual convention and an awards gala. It was a full year’s work executed in a little over 5 months! All the while, AME journeyed on. We look back at the year that was with a lot of gratitude and we are super proud of our accomplishments. Here’s our Year in Review 2021!
