A Winter Farewell

Spring is here! Or so they say. What better way to say farewell to Old Man Winter than with a gorgeous winter wedding? For their early February wedding at The Fairmont Hotel Macdonald the couple chose a classic winter palette of navy and silver. Touches of sparkle were added with the silver braided table runners and the hand made napkin rings. Alternating fresh floral centerpieces in tall Bella vases commanded attention as guests entered the ballroom. The bride added personal touches at every corner; in the foyer framed quotes about love, as interpreted by the Bride’s kindergarten class were displayed on the cocktail tables.  And in the ballroom, table numbers like 99 which represented “The Approximate Number Of Bottles Of Wine Consumed At The Engagement Party”, and 10 which was in reference to the grade the couple was in when they met.  With sophisticated decor and an ample supply of personalization this couples wedding has us feeling all warm inside.

What’s Your Wedding Style? Vintage Venue & Decor

Classic Vintage

Classic Vintage Decor

The classic vintage bride will be looking for natural light, detailed windows, and Windsor valences with gold accents to compliment her look.

Hotel Macdonald is the quintessential venue for this vintage bride. With deep rooted history and original Waterford china pattered ceilings. However, if you are looking for local charm than Fort Edmonton Park is a place where time has stopped and you can experience your wedding day as if it was 1885. If you are looking for southern charm than MaGrath Mansion is the perfect ceremony site or convocation hall for its exposed brick detail.

Details such as old jars, lace, pearls, and stationary complete this look.

Rustic Decor

The rustic vintage bride will be looking for country charm and wood details in her venue to compliment her decor.

Old timers cabin is perfect, with their large brick fireplace and light fixtures while venues like Country Lodge and Blue Meadows Halls offer gorgeous outdoor space complete with wheat fields and horses.

Decor items such as mason jars and wood chiavaris tied with burlap will complete this wedding style.

A Fern Delight

The front of this table takes a new twist on the traditional way of adding layers. Organza chair ties were scrunched, wrapped and pinned onto a runner to add texture and a youthful whimsy. Not to be outshone organza rosettes are delicately placed on each place setting and delicious macaroons from Duchess Bake Shop are encased in clear domes. Kristina McAnally of Event Planning Headquarters created this delightful tablescape.

A Mountain Retreat

Bring the mountain atmosphere to the comforts of the city for your next event with the help of a few key elements. Our new Georgia pine trees are an essential piece in creating the below mountain retreat tablescape. Earth tones such as green, brown and ivory helped maintain a soft atmosphere that we just love! Kristina McAnally from Event Planning Headquarters created this peaceful mountain retreat table.

Earth Tone Wedding

Chocolate brown and gold accents created a beautiful earthy colour combination. The use of two charger plates, clear beaded and gold, create a unique and striking place setting that we absolutely love. We also cannot get enough of the delicate pearl flower napkin rings, which are truly stunning!

Enchanting Dessert Bar

Many couples are opting for a dessert bar rather then a single table with their wedding cake. Choosing to do a dessert bar will allow you to share your favourite sweets with your guests and insure that there will be a dessert which every guest will be sure to love. We are a huge fan of this trend and not just because we love treats. Dessert bars allow you to add colour, texture and additional visual appeal to your event. Last year our team created this enchanting dessert bar at Bridal Expo.
