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.

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.
