London Ontario vintage hollywood glam style wedding storyReality Wedding Story:
A vintage Hollywood glam escape

Jenn & Mike, September 5 2009 | Delta London Armouries, London

Photography by Lee Mann Photography
Story by TheWeddingRing.ca

Jennifer Millett was a Fashion Design student when she met Michael Edwards in the summer of 2006. He was working in the Georgian Bay area at the time, which is where Jenn grew up. They immediately hit it off, taking refuge in how compatible they were together, and how easy it was to make each other laugh. Six months later, Jenn moved to London to be with Mike and finish her Degree. Just a few months after that, the couple admitted they knew that this was forever. They remember, “We both felt we would spend the rest of our lives together.” For full story and fashion details, click here.

Why wedding favours are important

Giving favors to wedding guests is a time-honored tradition that dates back to the sixteenth century, when European aristocrats would present guests with small boxes of sugar cubes (a precious commodity in those times). The tradition has carried over to present day, often couples will present their guests with sweets. Giving favors is a singularly special way of thanking your guests for being a part of your special day.

 

Why Boudoir Photography is So Hot

  • Subject: Re:Destination Wedding + at home Reception - by: Uniglobe Mindful Traveller
    Hey Jenn It's me Dawn, we have a meeting tomorrow so looking forward to that!!! I agree with your brides here ... my daughter got married in destination and then a reception back home, we waited only about 2 weeks, which was mildly hectic getting everything together once we returned, but mostly it was weather and time related, June was the month of both! Give yourselves time in between but again not too much time that people forget you! lol Invitations ... most brides are sending out combined invites with wording along the lines of "we'd love to have you join us on the beach in Jamaica for the week of January ... but if you cannot come we understand and hope you'll be able to attend the reception when we return!" send 2 dif. RSVPs might help one for wedding, one for reception most of the will call me, the agent etc., and get onboard for the wedding trip so sometimes not necessary to RSVP toyou with return cards etc. I always suggest an RSVP on anything you send out, even if there really isn't one, as people tend to set aside something with no clear deadline. Typically they call me either right away to get their deposits it or wait until that LAST day, haha, either way you make sure you have the space available for them to book so leaving it too long can create a problem if the flights or hotel get sold out ... Hope that all helps, this is such a fun thing to do getting excited a whole year in advance for a beach wedding! Yeah!!!!! I have some good pricing for 2011 coming in and good deals that could also happen soon for us! see you soon thanks DAWN www.destinationweddingsbydawn.com dawn@uniglobediscover.com
  • Subject: Re:Needs ideas for inside wedding pictures - by: Two Tone Studios
    The rain delay plan for a wedding I did in Stratford was to go to Shakespere ( the little town next door) and shoot within their many Antique shops. There's some nice shops down town, and a couple of pubs and coffee shops you can use. Just ask First. Their City Hall is AWESOME. I have never shot in or around it, but it is one spot I would love to use. Check it out. Where is the reception and Ceremony Locations? Can you Use the reception spot for the Family and group photos? My Suggestion is that you do all the family photos either at the reception hall or the Ceremony location, and take the wedding party downtown to coffee shops and pubs. Bring umbrellas, and do some shots of you and your man out in the rain. Its fun and you will get a ton of great images. Good luck, and here's to a NO RAIN wedding day. Kurt
