North Moore Catering brings NYC style to London for fresh and creative wedding feasts
North Moore Catering Co was born out of a love for New York City's food culture and one woman's dream to bring that style to London, Ontario. For Owner and Cook Jess Jazey-Spoelstra, coming up with new ideas and concepts and making sure that each wedding has a "wow" factor is just part of what she loves about her job, which she's been doing for over twenty years. Five star service, food and ambiance are what you pay for at North Moore Catering, and we're told by both vendors and brides alike, that if the highest quality and most flavourful food is what you're looking for, then North Moore is worth every penny. And, with a Chef who personally hand picks only the freshest ingredients, creates and cooks everything on-site and focuses on presentation just as much as preparation, we tend to agree.

Family owners bring dedication, expertise & quality to the forefront of the tuxedo market
In the past, The Ring has visited and called Collins Formal Wear countless times in an effort to do research for our brides and grooms. Every single time we approach Collins, we are greeted the same way each customer is greeted - warmly and with appreciation. Even with tons of weddings on the go, clients filling their rental locations, and lots on their plates, the three owners of Collins Formal Wear - Lynda, Brad and Curt Collins never fail to provide exceptional service to each of their clients, which likely has something to do with the fact that they believe "shopping for a tux is like shopping for a wedding gown. It's not a decision to be taken lightly." It's for this reason, and for their extensive selection of high quality, exclusive formal wear, that The Ring decided every groom (and his bride) should know what we know about Collins Formal Wear.

Music Central - Disc Jockeys

The key to great wedding music

When you're planning the ultimate wedding day, wedding music can trump just about anything in its level of importance. Let's face it, no one wants to horrify Grandma with naughty lyrics in the wedding party dance, have the wrong song played for their first dance, or worse, have an altogether empty dance floor.

Wanting to strike the right tone for your wedding day tunes is all about the DJ, live band or other musicians you choose to play on your day. That, and some great song choices, and you're looking at a fabulous night filled with dancing and celebration of your new marriage. We've got a few tricks to help you hit all the right notes on your wedding day... Click for list.

  • Subject: Brand new, beautiful wedding dress for sale! - by: Natasha King
    Hi everyone! I have a brand new, never-worn wedding dress for sale. I bought it a while ago, but recently changed wedding ideas from formal to extremely informal, so now won't be needing it. It is a strapless ivory gown, with aloncon lace covering mikado silk. This romantic gown is pretty hard to find, so you can be sure that it will be very unique! It is a lovely gown for a wedding during any season, and goes with pretty much any theme you are envisioning. Size: 8, altered to a 6/7 Price: with alterations, the dress cost close to $1300. As it has never been worn, any reasonable offers will be considered... I'm all about negotiating:) Please see attached pictures, and let me know if you're interested! I look forward to hearing from you, and happy wedding-planning! P.S. I couldn't find any pictures online (like I said, hard to find!), so I only have ones of me in the sample store one. http://www.theweddingring.ca/images/fbfiles/images/wedding_dress_3.jpg http://www.theweddingring.ca/images/fbfiles/images/wedding_dress_1.jpg http://www.theweddingring.ca/images/fbfiles/images/wedding_dress_2.jpg
