Lindsay & Shane’s Laid Back Downtown Wedding
We LOVE everything about restaurant weddings - the vibes, the existing decor, the fabulous food and drink AND excellent service. Last fall we planned an intimate, downtown wedding featuring a neutral palette with industrial touches.

Ashley and Leo’s Colourful Museum Wedding
As a wedding planner, Ashley and Leo’s wedding is one of those celebrations you dream of planning, and lucky for us, our dream came true last summer! Together, we planned a celebration bold in style and bright in colour. Our palette of tangerine orange, sage green, lavender, and blush was present in every detail across the ceremony and reception at the Manitoba Museum.
We wanted to recap all the design moments from this wedding that helped create the ‘wow’ factor and show how you can incorporate colour AND enjoy an elegant, timeless celebration. Keep reading to learn more!

Marlee & Mitch’s Elegant Spring Wedding
The 2023 wedding season is coming to an end and we’ve been involved in some fabulous celebrations this year. We kicked off our season with a spectacular spring wedding for Marlee and Mitch at The Gates on Roblin in the Grand Ballroom. We wanted to highlight Marlee and Mitch’s celebration featuring lots of florals and a gorgeous palette of muted whites and greys, along with pops of blush, mauve and gold elements. Read all about their elegant, spring inspired wedding, here.
Jenna & Justin’s Romantic Summer Wedding
Jenna and Justin were such a fun and sweet couple we had the pleasure to work with last year. They got married pool side on the roof of the Delta Hotel in downtown Winnipeg, followed by a gorgeous reception in the Delta ballroom. All these beautiful photos were taken by Picture and Poet.
2022 Wedding Trends
2022 is here and so is the wedding boom. The Bridal Theory estimates over 2.5 million weddings will take place this year – the most amount of weddings since 1984! The pandemic isn’t over, but celebrations are back and we are so excited to see a record number of beautiful and unique wedding celebrations this year, all driven by a return to party-mode. We are here for it, and know you are too! From interactive entertainment to contemporary rentals, check out some trends you can expect to see this year in the world of weddings.
A GUIDE TO DOWNSIZING YOUR WEDDING
It is no secret COVID has altered wedding plans for so many 2021 couples. Rather than postpone multiple times, many couples have opted to proceed, albeit with a reduced guest list based on current provincial restrictions. Scaling back your guest list may seem like the impossible task, but we have some recommendations to help keep the planning (and re-planning) process smooth and help execute a safe and beautiful scaled down event.
