Story by Carla @ The Ring (with help from the bride)
Michelle and Jonathan first met each other in grade seven and were inseparable from then until they graduated high school, well, at least as desk mates thanks to alphabetical seat arrangements.
The two dated on and off in high school and stayed close friends before growing apart when Michelle moved to Toronto and Jon went to Hamilton for school. In the summer of 2003, while they were both back home in Woodstock, they got together to catch up and say that "Something just clicked, and the timing was finally right."
High-style in Niagara Falls
July 11, 2009 :: Niagara-on-the-Lake and Fallsview Casino, Niagara Falls

Choosing an officiant for your wedding ceremony
This expert tip is from Rev. Mandi Neiser, an ordained, non-denominational Minister and Owner of Married by Mandi in Hamilton. She provides personalized wedding ceremonies and her experience is reviewed in TheWeddingRing.ca.
The date is booked, the hall is rented, the D.J. is hired and the dress has been chosen. You think you’ve covered everything, until you realize one small detail – “Who’s going to marry us?” Of course, if you plan to marry in a church, your Minister, Pastor or Priest will have the honour of presiding over your vows, but if you don’t belong to a church, or simply prefer a more non-traditional or more spiritual ceremony, you will need to find someone to perform the ceremony at the location you have chosen. So now the daunting task of finding an Officiant begins. But it certainly doesn’t have to be an overwhelming task, especially if you are prepared, and know what you’re looking for.
