Wedding Ceremony

When looking for wedding officiants, my partner and I were a bit lost. After doing a few google searches, we found, who unbeknownst to us, is the Michael Jordan of the wedding officiants- The Marrying Lady, Tade.

After speaking with some of our friends, we discovered a few of them also had the great pleasure of being married by Tade.
We also had friends who had wanted her as their officiant, but unfortunately for them, was already booked.

Tade, thank you for your amazing, genuine, and attentive service! You made the day and our paperwork signing so fun, easy and memorable.

100000/5 stars ⭐️

Tade was absolutely amazing as our officiant! What we originally thought would be a simple signing of our marriage license became a heartfelt and meaningful ceremony thanks to her warmth and presence. She made everything feel special, personal, and memorable.

Tade is professional, kind, and has such a wonderful way of making people feel comfortable and cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant who goes above and beyond!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Tade as our wedding officiant, and she was incredible. From the very beginning, she truly listened to our vision and made sure the ceremony reflected our personalities and the vibe we wanted. She has such a calm, grounding presence that immediately put us at ease, and she offered so much thoughtful advice and helpful suggestions for the entire wedding day.

Her balance of professionalism and warmth was exactly what we were looking for—organized, prepared, and experienced, while also making everything feel personal and heartfelt. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant and would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for someone kind, supportive, and genuinely invested in making their ceremony special.

Tade was an absolutely amazing and essential member of our wedding day! Her online walk through was thorough; she was infinitely kind and patient with us, and we felt very much prepared for our big day. The ceremony felt very personalized to us as a couple, and I felt overjoyed by the cheers she got out of our normally quiet group of friends and family. Highly recommended!~

Thank you so much, Tade!

Tade was absolutely incredible, our ceremony was perfectly "us" and all of our guests raved about how energetic and fun our entire ceremony was. She answered all of our many many questions along the way and made sure we were plenty prepared for our day, make sure you add on the walk through as it was instrumental to making sure the ceremony ran smoothly especially since we didn't have a wedding coordinator. If you are looking for an officiant look no further you have found the best in the biz!

We are eternally grateful to Elise and her team at Toast Events for making our wedding the most spectacular, stress-free, and stunning experience. Every detail was considered and this allowed me to trust her vision and design - from the initial consultation, to the final planning meeting - it was so easy and exciting to work with her. She also planned our wedding in three months which was record speed. Her communication style is friendly, professional and relaxed. The amount of time she saved us, the stress of planning a wedding completely removed, and executing our day as flawless as possible was 100% worth it. The lasting impact and beautiful memories we formed on our special day was so incredible and we give full credit to Elise for making our day come to life. Investing in Toast Events is well, well worth it! - Andrea

My wife, to this day, still talks about her as if they’re best friends - which I then have to sadly remind her that they’re not and our contract is over - Luke

Elise was the perfect person to bring our wedding day dreams to life. She is incredibly detail-oriented, creative, and brought both knowledge and reassurance to every step of the planning process. Elise has a way of making you feel like you have her full attention and was always ready to answer my questions or offer knowledgeable advice.

Her calm, positive, and efficient energy carried through every part of the day. She ensured everything unfolded exactly as we had envisioned. We trusted Elise and her team completely, and they handled every detail seamlessly.

Elise and Brittany, thank you for making our wedding day more beautiful than I ever dreamed of and for turning one big special day into countless small, unforgettable moments. We are so grateful for your thoughtfulness and kindness, and we’ll truly miss working with you!

I had the pleasure of DJing a recent event with Elise of Toast Events at the chateau Laurier in Ottawa. She was the absolute perfect mix of organized and firm but also fun and kind. They're an asset to any event, large and small, and I look forward to working alongside them again!

From the moment Elise stepped into my life, she felt like someone I’d known forever, familiar, warm, and unwaveringly on my side. She balanced professional diplomacy with heartfelt connection, always arming me with just the right information so I felt in control, never overwhelmed.

When a décor vendor fell through last minute, Elise reacted not with stress, but options. Within an hour, she’d sourced two breathtaking alternatives both better than what we’d originally planned. Moments like that weren’t rare; rather, they were Elise’s quiet mastery at work.

It wasn’t just the logistics it was the little things that made me feel seen. Elise remembered my quirky “no pepper” rule, my love for blue hydrangeas, and on my final walk-through, she casually reassured me, “You’re going to be radiant and every detail tells your story.”

On the wedding day, I remember pausing in awe so many hours, so much care, and yet it all felt effortless in that moment. I joked later that I would’ve gladly paid her twice what I did. Every dollar felt like a gift, yielding results so profound I “still can’t believe she made it happen.”

Elise doesn’t just plan weddings. She creates experiences that feel personal, creative, and deeply crafted for you. If you’re feeling hesitant about making such an investment trust me, I was there too, let my experience reassure you: say yes to Elise. You’ll be glad you did.

I’ve worked with Elise and her team at Toast Events many times over the years, and they’re always such a steady, calming presence on a wedding day. Their designs are beautiful and elevated, but what stands out most is how much they genuinely care about their couples. They are always a step ahead and making sure everything runs smoothly. As a vendor, it makes all the difference to work alongside a planner who’s organized, thoughtful, and just easy to be around. Always grateful when we get to team up!

I honestly cannot recommend it enough! When we first reached out to him, we thought this was going to be a very simple process — just signing some papers and that would be it. We didn’t expect much beyond the legal part, and to be honest, we weren’t even planning on having a real ceremony. But what he did for us went far above and beyond anything we could have imagined.

He surprised us by securing a beautiful venue at no cost to us. We had absolutely no idea he would do that, and it honestly left us speechless. Not only was the space perfect, but he made sure it was just for us — private, comfortable, and truly meaningful. Instead of it being just a quick signature, he turned it into a full ceremony. We didn’t plan for it, yet he still gave us the experience of a real wedding moment, something we will never forget.

The way he guided everything was thoughtful and professional. He took the time to make us feel comfortable, explained the process, and still kept it warm, personal, and heartfelt. What stood out the most was his kindness — he genuinely wanted us to have a special memory, not just a formality.

Looking back, I feel so grateful that we found him. He gave us something that we didn’t even know we needed — a wedding ceremony that actually felt like a celebration of our love. It wasn’t just paperwork; it was a real moment we will cherish forever.

If you are looking for someone who truly cares, who goes out of his way to make your day special, and who does so with generosity and professionalism, then you need to have Mike as your marriage officiant. We couldn’t be happier, and we will forever remember how he turned something simple into something unforgettable.

A True Blessing to Our Wedding Day!

We feel so fortunate to have had Mike as our Officiant. From the moment we connected, he brought a calm, grounded presence and a heartfelt sincerity that truly touched us. He took the time to understand our vision and theme, and thoughtfully crafted a ceremony that reflected who we are as a couple — personal, meaningful, and full of warmth.

On the day of the wedding, Mike's words were beautiful and delivered with such grace and authenticity. He beautifully wove in elements that reflected our love story, values, and the overall theme of our wedding. He honoured our spiritual beliefs with grace, and his words carried a sense of reverence that brought so much meaning to the moment. The prayer he offered, the way he included symbolic gestures — touched us and our guests profoundly.

He made us feel completely at ease, and our guests were genuinely moved by the ceremony. So many people told us afterward how powerful and intimate the ceremony felt. Mike didn’t just deliver a script, he composed a sacred experience that celebrated our union in the most authentic way.

Mike, thank you for your ministry, your heart, and for blessing our union. We are deeply thankful you were such a special part of our day.

— Natasha & Dean

We had a wonderful experience with Mike. They were professional, warm, and made the ceremony feel so personal and meaningful. Everything went smoothly, and their kind presence made our day even more special. Highly recommend!

We didn’t know where to start with planning, but Mike made everything so easy. He guided us step by step, kept the ceremony stress-free, and added personal touches that made it feel truly ours. Our families loved it, and we left with memories we’ll cherish forever. Thank you so much.

Thank you Mike for such a wonderful experience. My wife and I are forever grateful to you. If I ever have to recommend a marriage officiate to anyone I will definitely be recommending Mike. That guy not just made the moment unexpectedly special but also made us truly comfortable. My wife, not expecting a venue or an actual ceremony got a whole wedding instead of just sign offs. This made both of us really happy and our special day even more special. Couldn’t be any better.

Our quick a simple Love & Legalities service with Aaron was perfect for us. We were able to keep things low key, light, non-denominational and intimate while still making the moment special. Aaron was communicative, organized and clear leading up to our service to ensure we knew what we needed to do and were prepared. We were fortunate to enjoy a lovely May evening out in the backyard gazebo for our service and were joined by a few close friends.

Completely pleased with our experience with Aaron and would recommend his services to others!

Aaron officiated our wedding ceremony in early September. We loved the story he wrote about us, and many of our guests loved it as well! Aaron is professional, communicative, and flexible. He took the time to get to know us as a couple and kindly accommodated our preferences. We felt very supported throughout the entire process and we’re so happy he was our officiant. We highly recommend Aaron!

We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant than Aaron! From the very beginning, he was personable, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in getting to know us. He crafted a ceremony that was heartfelt, beautifully told our story, and felt so authentic to who we are as a couple. Our guests are still raving about how meaningful and personal it was! The entire experience working with Aaron was amazing, and we’re so grateful he was a part of our special day.

Aaron recently officiated our wedding and we were so pleased with how heartfelt and personalized the ceremony was! Many of our guests complimented how meaningful and well done the ceremony was. Aaron was easy to work with and always responsive. He took the time to get to know us as a couple and put so much thought into making our story special. We highly recommend Aaron to any couple looking for an officiant!

Aaron took such great care of us, from the start of the planning process to the big day and beyond. We were nervous about a few pieces of the ceremony, including a change in service in the last month, but he kindly accommodated us and ensured everything went smoothly. Aaron was always easy to get ahold of and has stayed on the ball post-wedding, recently reminding us to apply for our marriage certificate. It's been a pleasure, Aaron! Thank you for everything.

Judy was incredible! Especially since we didn’t have a wedding rehearsal. Her guidance throughout the process and coordination on the day were invaluable. She kept everything running smoothly and created such a heartfelt ceremony. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant.

We cannot recommend Judy Wiltse highly enough! From our very first conversation, she made us feel completely at ease and supported. On our wedding day, she was warm, professional, and genuinely kind to us and our families, creating a ceremony that felt deeply personal and meaningful.

Her guidance before and during the ceremony made everything seamless, and she had a wonderful way of connecting with everyone in attendance. We are so grateful for her role in making our wedding day unforgettable.

If you are looking for an officiant who will treat your day with care, thoughtfulness, and joy, Judy is truly the best choice!

Thank you for making our day one of a kind!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Vows by Judy! From the moment we first connected, Judy was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and warm. She brought such a calming presence to our big day, which made all the difference. Her sense of humor and genuine care made us and our guests feel truly seen and celebrated. Judy created a ceremony that was meaningful, personal, and unforgettable. We are so grateful to have had her as our officiant—it was one of the best moments! Thank you, Judy, for helping make our wedding so special!

Outstanding officiant from beginning to end. Calm and personable aura, with so much knowledge about officiating. My husband and I were so glad to have Judy as a recommendation from our planner. Judy guided us for every step of way, and is responsive to every question. Thank you Judy!!

Judy officiated our wedding and did a wonderful job! Judy was very prompt at responding to our emails leading up to the wedding and created a beautiful ceremony. She also provided us with individual feedback on our vows to make sure the length & content was similar between both of us. Thanks Judy!

We were so fortunate to have Manny officiate our wedding on June 14, 2025! From our very first conversation, we knew we had made the right choice. He exuded warmth, professionalism, and a genuine passion for making our ceremony truly special for us as a couple.
Manny offered thoughtful suggestions and guidance, helping us select readings that resonated with us. The entire process felt collaborative and stress-free, which was a huge relief during wedding planning.
On the big day, he delivered a ceremony that was perfect. His delivery was heartfelt and engaging, striking a balance between sincerity and joy. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony was.
If you're looking for a wedding officiant who will go above and beyond to create a lovely ceremony, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend Manny and are so grateful for the amazing start he gave to our marriage!

We truly cannot recommend Reverend Manny enough.

From the very beginning, he brought such warmth, kindness, and compassion to every conversation. He never made us feel like just another couple on his calendar, but instead, it felt like we were inviting a dear friend to be part of one of the most important moments of our lives.

He checked in with us often, offered to be a second set of eyes on our vows, and was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process. His presence was calming, genuine, and so full of heart... Exactly what we needed to bring everything together.

Reverend Manny was the missing piece our wedding needed, and we are so grateful for the care and thoughtfulness he poured into every step of the journey. Thank you, Reverend Manny!

Rev Manny really made our wedding ceremony so special. From the very start he was so easy to work, quick to respond to my questions and accommodating despite our many changes to the details - he was gracious and flexible. His humor, charm and wit made our ceremony just perfect. I would highly recommend him to everyone!!

Rev. manny did an amazing job at our civil ceremony! He gave us many options for our wedding script and was very professional as an officiant. He helped make our day perfect and I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Rev Manny was a great choice of officiant for our recent wedding. A true professional, Manny made building the right style ceremony for us so easy. He only books one wedding a day which reduces the worry that he will be late or rushing somewhere else. He delivered the program perfectly and adds warmth and personality to something that can sometimes be dry. Highly recommend his servies!

This is our family's go-to for any decor needs! Masha was so cooperative and accomodating throughout the whole process and she really helped make our vision come to life. Our guests loved the details and the flowers! Thank you Masha!

M&M

I had a great experience with Marsha and her team for decorating for my wedding. She was very attentive to my requests and would come back with many different color options or fabric options. In the end, I was really happy and impressed by what she was able to achieve.

Masha and her team at Wedding Finesse brought our vision to life with stunning church and hall wedding décor. She supplied our floral arrangements and we received so many on how elegant and captivating the floral arrangements were. The church décor felt timeless and serene, perfectly complementing the ceremony, while the hall was transformed into a breathtaking space for celebration. Masha's creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. She transported the church decor to our reception hall and everything was ready without any issues. We can’t thank her enough for making our day so magical!

Masha was AMAZING to work with. She was so helpful and had so many great ideas and suggestions for my big day. They did setup and take down at the end of the night and it was worth every dollar! I loved that she had a lot of ideas and she was very quick to answer me back via email or text. So many people came up to me at the wedding asking who decorated. It was stunning! I would recommend anyone to Wedding Finesse - You made our day PERFECT! Thank you Masha and Wedding Finesse team! We love you!!

Absolutely stunning! Working with Wedding Finesse was nothing short of magical. From the moment we first spoke, their attention to detail and dedication to our vision was unparalleled. They transformed our venue into a breathtaking wonderland that truly exceeded all our expectations. Every element, from the exquisite floral arrangements to the meticulously designed table settings, was flawlessly executed. The team’s creativity and professionalism made our special day an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect celebration. If you want your wedding to be a masterpiece, Wedding Finesse is the absolute best choice!

Sharyn was the perfect addition for our wedding! She's very kind, professional, and lets you fully customize your ceremony. We are so lucky to have found her! She was prepared, and easy to contact with any questions. I will always recommend her.

We got married in BC on Vancouver Island and highly recommend Melinda Orlowski! She was amazing during the process of creating our ceremony script. She was open to a lot of back and forth, and any changes or suggestions we had to the original script she drafted for us. We didn't have anything super specific we needed for our ceremony, so it was great that she did majority of the work and drafted everything for us, minus our own vows. Everything was taken care of in a smoothly manner, and she showed up early on the day. The ceremony went smoothly and the signing process went great as well! It was awesome that Melinda suggested a moment during the ceremony for everyone to take pics (Credit to Willow + Waltz below), and mentioned any family members who were not with us anymore. There were obvious cues for us to do our vows and exchange of rings, which was appreciated as we were both a little awkward being up there in front of everyone, and it made us feel more comfortable having her lead and guide us through it!

We had the pleasure of having Rich as our officiant for our wedding, he was very kind, shared a lot of tips and knowledge which was very helpful! The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and we can’t thank him enough!! The whole experience was easy, and smooth. Rich told our story beautifully to our friends and family, making it that much more special!!

Shawn was an excellent officiant, everything was very smooth and seamless and he has such a great personality. Thanks again so much for making our wedding the best day of our lives!!!

We had a fantastic experience with young, hip and married! They were very helpful and Rich, was the perfect addition to our day! Felt like he was an old friend and was such a calming presence! He was also very flexible and accommodating

We had the pleasure of having Janie from Young Hip & Married officiate our wedding this past weekend. Janie was everything we could have asked for! She made our ceremony personalized by finding out about us as a couple from our closest friends and family, and she also served as a calming, organized presence when we needed it the most! Thank you so much, Janie, for making our ceremony perfect!!

We got married at 52 North Venue last Saturday, June 21 2025 and it was an INCREDIBLE day!

Kat & Devon were a pleasure to work with on every occasion; from our first venue tour, to multiple open houses where we had opportunities to bring our party & photographer to see the venue, to our big day. They helped create the perfect seating chart and the venue’s rentable decorations pulled our vision together.

Lori and Allen, the property managers, were absolutely amazing the entire wedding weekend. We can’t thank them enough for being so accommodating and willing to wait until the last second to make an inclement weather call to move the ceremony inside, and they managed to set up and pull off our dream outdoor ceremony so swiftly we barely noticed when the rain magically stopped just in time! They even thought to put out blankets for our guests in case they were chilly.

The 52 North team absolutely made our weekend one to remember. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about what an incredible venue it was. We had the perfect day! Thank you!

This past weekend we had our wedding at 52 North Venue and we couldn’t have had a better experience!!!

Early on we struggled with finding a venue that would give us the time and freedom to make the day what we wanted. For the same cost as many other venues, here we were able to include an extra half day before for setup and again after for take down of decorations. 52 North made it so that we had everything we needed and more.

We were able to come to the venue multiple times before the wedding for open house and events to trial the bartenders and network with other vendors. This made planning a lot easier.

As for the day of, everything went perfectly. The venue had tons of parking to accommodate our 172 rowdy guests. There was tons of space for guests to be either inside or out, and oh my gosh the pictures…they turned out stunning. From the venue’s unique old truck to the custom vault for the guys to get ready in, if you’re looking for that Instagram photo spot, there are more than enough to go around.

Lastly the people of 52 North Venue are so kind and amazing! The owners Kat and Devon made communication so easy when we had five million questions and adjusted to every need even when we wanted to change seating arrangements right at the very last minute. The property managers Lori and Allen were sooo much help the day of that they deserve an extra special shoutout, I don’t think the wedding would have gone so smoothly without them.

Truly a wonderful team and venue to work with!

We got married here in July 2025, and it couldn't have been more perfect! The venue is absolutely beautiful and we received so many compliments on our big day. The venue itself is so beautiful, it does not require too many decorations. The outdoor space was perfect for cocktail hour, with the outdoor furniture, lawn games, and patio bar. One of the big reasons we chose this venue is we were able to have it for the entire weekend, which allowed us to do our own decorating, have rehearsal on site, and relax the night before. We rented the Vault and the entire wedding party was able to conveniently stay at the venue the night before, eliminating the need to travel to the venue the day of the wedding. The suite and vault were equipped with everything you'd need, and the bridal party loved being able to hot tub the night before! We were also able to extend the night until 2am, since our guests love a good party!

They require you book their bartenders, Roadpop, and they truly did not disappoint! Worth every penny - they did an amazing job. No lineups, delicious drinks, and provided a great overall experience! They also let us purchase our own liquor.

Would definitely recommend this venue!

The whole team at 52 North is very welcoming and ensure every little detail is considered. From a personalized welcome with chocolates, bubbles in the fridge, to a 24/7 property manager on-site. The venue itself is serene and unique. My husband and I LOVED that we could rent the location for the whole weekend, which provided as stress free wedding for the whole wedding party. The fact that they allow pets on-site (with some restriction) allows the opportunity for couples to share their special day with their fur-babies! Not only is the interior of the venue gorgeous, but the property boasts amazing photography opportunities.

Kat was amazing to communicate with and responded within a timely manner.

This venue and team is AMAZING and I would highly recommend this place to any couple planning one of the biggest days of their lives.

52 North is absolutely breathtaking! Such a beautiful venue that really does have it all. Unique, industrial & modern design. Options to stay the entire weekend & rent decor makes it super easy for any event. Kat, Devon, Lori & Allan went above & beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. They made sure everything went smoothly for both rehearsal & wedding day. Our guests were blown away at how perfect the venue was set up.
Very close to Sylvan lake was a plus for our guests.
Would definitely recommend! We are so happy that this is where we chose for our special day!

Sarah Maynard did an absolutely wonderful job officiating our wedding ceremony! She has such a warm and personable nature that immediately puts you at ease. One of the things we appreciated most was how she allowed us to customize certain parts of the ceremony to truly reflect who we are as a couple. Throughout the entire process, Sarah was incredibly attentive to both of us. She made sure my husband felt comfortable while waiting at the altar, constantly checking in on him, and she was equally caring in ensuring I was doing well too. Her thoughtfulness really showed on what could have been a nerve-wracking day. Sarah was exceptionally professional in every aspect of her service, and you can genuinely tell that she absolutely loves what she does. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and skilled officiant. She truly made our special day even more perfect! September 2025

The process was very easy. The best thing about the wedding was getting married and having my poem/reading be the one I dreamed of. Israel Copel was absolutely amazing. He did such a fantastic job at keeping order and helping me stay calm. He explained the entire process so effectively, I was able to trust him and let things happen. He was so great and patient and did a wonderful job getting us married. Thank you so much! August 2025

Big thank you to Colleen Heidman for being such a special (and seriously amazing) part of our day. She brought the perfect mix of heart and humour, to our ceremony, and clapping along while I danced down the aisle? Iconic!! She didn’t just officiate; she elevated the whole moment. She’s an incredible officiant, and Josh and I would both recommend her in a heartbeat, before you can say “start your engines!” 😂We’re so glad it was her who helped start our engine towards our upcoming new adventures! Thank you Colleen!❤️
June 2025

The process was super easy and very fast!! The best part was getting to pledge my love to my husband in front of my family … Colleen did such a beautiful job! Everything was amazing. Colleen was absolutely amazing; she went above and beyond, and we truly appreciate her!! We will recommend her and All Seasons Weddings again and again to anyone who listens! September 2025

The online service was great for booking our officiant, Sarah Maynard. The email responses were always very timely. Sarah was amazing! She always responded quickly, day or night. She was so nice when we met her, and she did a terrific job at our ceremony. Some of our family members at the ceremony even asked for her referral information because they thought she did such a wonderful job. Couldn't be happier with the service we received! Shelbie & Brandon June 2025

My friends and I were window shopping on Monday August 11th and were curious as to where the staircase next to Boutique 1861 would lead to. We soon learnt that it lead to Boudoir 1861, the bridal sister shop of Boutique 1861. We arrived close to closing time, but the two female staff were very kind and accomodating. Upon entering my eyes kept wandering to one of the dresses on a mannequin. The staff help in making sure it fit well and suited my needs, which convinced me to make the purchase. Thank you again for the friendly and welcoming customer service! Especially as a younger group it was greatly appreciated.

I had an awesome and personal experience with the boutique’s patient and helpful staffs! A special thanks to Mireille, who lingered and always asked how she can help. She even provided recommendations on how to best wear the dress I ended up choosing. Thank you to Raman as well for packing my dress suitably for travel and for recommending jewelry. It has been a great wedding dress shopping experience! :)

Nora did a fantastic job at finding such perfect wedding dresses for me to try on! I ended up going home to think about which one I like the most but she was really accommodating and welcoming to my preferences. Definitely a must stop by boutique if you’re in the market for a wedding dress!

I was very stressed at the beginning of my dress search and unsure of what I was really looking for. Mireille listened carefully, took my vision, and brought it to life. She did such an incredible job that I ended up finding my dress in just one appointment. She saved me from countless bridal store visits and made the entire experience so much easier and more joyful. I knew immediately that this was the dress, and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Mireille!

Mireille offered amazing service to help me find a few items for my wedding dress. She get such great advice and helped me plan for the big day and I couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!

We got married at Cork and Crate last month and had the most wonderful experience! From our charcuterie and wine tour, to getting to view two open houses before our wedding, then finally the wedding day, everything was smooth and made as stress free as possible. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, we got married in the Vine House and the Sunflower Suite was so nice to have to get ready in the morning and have to sneak off for some quiet time throughout the night! The guys loved their area to get ready and made my husband’s experience so fun. Our guests took full advantage of the property and absolutely loved the animals and the yard games! Our time from our first viewing to our actual wedding day was spread out through some time due to when we decided to get married and we had a great experience with all the venue coordinators, but I truly cannot say enough about Matthew. He really cares about the brides having the least stressful experience possible and he went out of his way on our rehearsal and wedding day to ensure everything ran smoothly. Thank you Cork and Crate and thank you Matthew!

We recently had our wedding at Cork & Crate and couldn't have been happier with our day and our experience. The venue is well organized to host both the ceremony and the reception, allowing both outdoor options for mingling during cocktail hour and spacious interior for the reception. Matt and his team were amazing helping us set up and throughout the day, checking in to make sure everything was going smooth and that we were having a good time and facilitating our requests. The venue and property offer a number of different options, allowing you to customize your day and experience. We felt that we did not have to decorate a ton because the inside was already beautiful and rustic. We also really enjoyed utilizing both spaces for the bride and groom to get ready. Being able to be at the venue from the start of the day allowed us to take our time and really enjoy the day and experience. We are very thankful for the Cork & Crate team and would recommend the venue to any couple looking for a venue out of the city and there are great options for local vendors in the Olds area.

Absolutely beautiful venue and very accommodating. Matthew, our day of coordinator, made the day completely flawless. He really took the time to get to know us and our individual wants and needs throughout the whole process. I highly recommend this venue for a once in a lifetime experience (and hopefully it is ;) )

Absolutely loved everything about working with Cork and Crate estates for my wedding. They were amazing to work with from start to finish. Matthew, the acting day of coordinator (and so much more) made sure the lead up to the wedding went as smooth as possibly, easing as many nerves ahead of time as humanly possible. Having him on the day of, making sure things ran smoothly took so much pressure off us. We will be recommending Cork and Crate to anyone who will listen. Could not have had a better experience!!

Absolutely stunning venue! Every detail was perfect from start to finish. Matthew was amazing—so helpful, kind, and attentive throughout the entire event. His professionalism and warm personality made the day run smoothly. Highly recommend this beautiful space and team for any special occasion!

We got married at Flo's Garden in September 2023. We are so glad we chose to have our wedding here. Jessica and Matt did an amazing job helping our vision for the wedding come to life and made sure everything ran smoothly on the big day. The venue was beautiful and private with lots of greenery and the food was amazing. We have gotten so many compliments from guests. We can't recommend this place enough!

I attended my brother and sister in law’s wedding here last evening, and this venue was beautiful, and the food was amazing! My 2 year old son was the ring bearer, and being a busy 2 year old boy, he was a bit wild. The venue owner stepped up and offered to watch my son and played with him, so that I could sit and watch the ceremony. As a mom of a very busy little boy that day, I was so grateful to the man who helped out with no hesitation. 5 star review very well deserved, incredible venue!

We had our wedding at Flo's Garden in August 2022 and it was truly the best day of our lives thanks to Jess & Matt. From the first day we contacted the Flo's team in 2020, to rescheduling our date in 2021, to our perfect day in 2022, they went above and beyond in every aspect of helping us bring our vision to life. They are expert communicators and fully committed to making each wedding they host special. Thanks to the Flo's team, our day unfolded without a single hitch!

The venue is absolutely stunning - spacious, green and fully customizable (front lawn, barn area for dinner). It is a gorgeous space for photos! My bridesmaids and I loved getting ready in the house on-site, where Matt and Jess welcomed us like family.

Many of our guests still tell us it was the best wedding they had ever attended! They constantly rave about the food from Meatings and the gorgeous venue.

We will always feel an immense gratitude towards the Flo's team for making our day so fantastic. I will never stop recommending Flo's Garden as a wedding venue!

My wife and I got married on October 5th 2024 at Flo's Garden and we are so glad that we picked such an amazing venue!
We had been planning our wedding for over 2 years and Jessica was always so helpful and informative whenever we had any questions leading up to our special day. Her attention to detail and confidence in her work really shows.
She did such a beautiful job capturing the vision that Emily and I had for our day; she checked in several times to make sure that we were happy with the look of the venue and gave us several options in terms of linen, cutlery, table centres, etc; the place is fully customizable to fit any of your needs/wants.

The property is absolutely beautiful, private and the greenery is extremely fantastic, we were obsessed with the willow trees! The bridesmaids absolutely loved getting ready at the venue and getting to spend the morning together before the ceremony began. A truly magical place.

Flo's is partnered with Meatings BBQ for catering and we have had nothing but positive remarks from our guests regarding the food as well. Mat (Meatings BBQ owner) was fantastic and accommodating for our vegetarian guests. Our guests still can't stop talking about it!

October 5th was truly the best day of our lives and we are so thankful to have a wonderful team (Jessica, Mat & staff) to help us make it come true. We will be forever grateful to them and their amazing staff for making our day so fantastic! Y'all welcomed us and made us all feel like family!

I will always recommend Flo's Garden; thank you again for everything, Jessica!

I don't even know where to start! We couldn't have gotten married at a more perfect location. It was the number one comment we got from all of our guests. Jessica is incredible, so on top of everything and graciously dealt with my neurotic self the day of the wedding haha The attention to detail was unmatched. Not having to deal with any sourcing of decor was such a relief. My entire vision came to life that day!! The setting was incredibly romantic, the flow of the day was perfect. We had 22 guests and it was the perfect setting, but can easily accommodate so much more. I wish I could do it all over again!!!

We can't recommend Mélanie and her Foudamour team highly enough!

We reached out with just four months to plan our wedding, and from our very first meeting, we knew her level of organization was exactly what we needed on such a tight timeline.

We had a very specific vision for our day—one that didn’t always align with traditional wedding norms—and Mélanie was genuinely excited to help us bring it to life. She was knowledgeable, collaborative, and was willing to think outside the box.

Her attention to detail was incredible. Her prep documents left no stone unturned and no question unanswered. She had an impeccable sense for which vendors would be the right fit for each aspect of the day, and her communication was always fast, clear, and thoughtful. She played a key role in helping us choose vendors for décor and table settings, and the final aesthetic was exactly what we had imagined.

The day itself ran flawlessly. Even with many moving parts, everything flowed seamlessly. Guest experience was 10/10, and transitions between spaces were smooth and natural—from setup to cleanup.

If you're looking for someone who’s organized, professional, creative, and truly committed to making your day feel like your day, Foudamour is the team for you!

It’s taken a couple weeks to gather all of our thoughts and come down from the excitement of our wedding. We contacted Melanie and a few other wedding planners in Montreal 15 months prior to the wedding day ( July 5, 2019). All the planners responded quickly but Melanie’s response was heartfelt, interested, and sincere. Her first question wasn’t, “whats the budget?” rather “how did you meet?” Her initial sincerity never faded - from day one to one week ago, Melanie has continued to be our most important support with all things wedding related.
My husband and I live in New York City and always felt that all aspects were being handled properly from afar. Melanie is budget conscious and was a never ending resource for picking the venue, florist, photographer, hair and makeup, DJ, live band, etc… The list goes on and on.
She always had a plan B for unforeseen circumstances and her elegant style and creativity made the planning process fun. We have the best memories and photos to look back on and Melanie is such a huge part of all of it. We're unbelievably pleased with how everything turned out!

Melanie was the best wedding planner we could have asked for. Not only was she organized, professional, and at the top of the wedding planning game, she is also a fun-loving person. She was able to see the big picture, but also get super granular and specific with the details. The result was a wedding that flowed with joy and love! Everyone asked us who our wedding planner was and we just can't believe our luck that we went with Foudamour. I would highly recommend Melanie at Foudamour to any couple getting married. Words cannot express how grateful my husband and I are to have had the best possible experience.

Melanie helped us coordinate our wedding this summer, and our experience was not the greatest.

Melanie is very skilled at a specific type of wedding. The moment you want something different than what she is used to, conflict arises. She is easily flustered and will push back a lot if your vision conflicts with hers. The meetings we had prior to the wedding were well organized but extremely frustrating. She constantly disagreed with our suggestions and swayed us away from what we'd originally wanted, even when it came to the simplest things. We wanted a shorter dinner and a longer dance party, which became an issue. We were trying to avoid assigned seating to ensure our wedding was less formal, that was out of the question for Melanie. Everything felt complicated; we had to convince her to agree with our vision every single time we spoke. Not the experience you dream of when planning a wedding.

The day of the wedding was also a letdown. While she is very energetic and organized, these qualities didn't transpire on the wedding day. The venue did look beautiful, Melanie and her team executed well on that front (though keep in mind my husband and I selected each vendor, curated the color palette, the flower selection, decor, etc). The problems arose from the start, when we arrived at the venue and were locked out, stranded outside in our wedding attire, even though she had planned our arrival and we were right on time. When we were finally let in, her staff didn't introduce themselves to us, barely acknowledging our presence, and Melanie's stress was palpable. When came time to walk down the aisle, Melanie got panicked and was very abrupt with us and our wedding party because one of our older relatives was "taking too long to walk down the aisle". She stressed us all out before an really important milestone. A similar situation arose when we were about to get introduced as a couple, and were left stranded in a hot room for over 25 minutes, waiting for her team to figure out the music. We ended up being introduced to the wrong song, which messed up the whole first portion of the dance party and dinner. This had all been scheduled, rehearsed, written down and was her responsibility.

Not once during the wedding did she come check on us, and she was nowhere to be found when our DJ lost access to the wifi and could not play anything besides the same 10 songs on repeat. As the person responsible for coordinating with our vendors and ensuring the wedding went down flawlessly, this was her responsibility, yet she was not around. I had to run around the venue to figure out the wifi. On that note, she was also abrupt and impatient with our other vendors, which in our opinion is unacceptable.

Melanie and her team did a great job of cleaning up the venue, ensuring our gifts and cards were safe and returning props and furniture to our suppliers. But for the price of a wedding planner, we expected more than a decent cleanup. We expected someone who kept her cool during stressful situations, someone who made us feel heard and who worked hard to make this special day feel unique to us. Unfortunately, that's not what we got. I rarely write reviews but I thought our experience could benefit others in their search for a wedding planner

100% would recommend!
Melanie and her team worked with my husband and I for over a year in the wedding planning process and the day came together better than we could have hoped for. It was a magical day that was unlike any wedding we had been to before and having Melanie and her team there let us truly enjoy our day and take everything in knowing that all the details were taken care of by Melanie.
She was not only professional, but also made us feel comfortable and at ease working with her throughout the whole planning process. Our guests raved that they had never been to a wedding like that before.
Melanie helped us along every step of the way from choosing the venue, the décor, dealing with the vendors and to hosting and making sure the flow of the evening was perfection.
Huge thank you to her and her team for making this a day we will never forget and most importantly, a day that was stress free for my now husband and I!

We hired Fusion Bollywood for my daughter’s Quinceañera, and they exceeded our expectations. The stage setup was absolutely stunning, and the flowers were gorgeous. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful everything looked. The team was professional, punctual, and very friendly to work with. We are extremely happy with their service and highly recommend Fusion Bollywood for any special event.

They did my house decor and gurdwara decor and it was exactly how I envisioned it. They made my thoughts into reality. Plus they were super easy to work with and very accommodating, would for sure recommend to everyone!!

From start to finish Fusion Bollywood impressed us with their professionalism. They listened to our requests, helped us choose the design suited to our needs, and implemented the set up perfectly and with punctuality. The lines of communication we're always open, and Jazz and his team were very polite. I was especially impressed when they took the initiative to call the venue to arrange and confirm the set up/take down time. It took some stress off my shoulders and gave me confidence that this was a reliable company. They were also very accommodating to our schedule when our ceremony ran overtime, and we definitely appreciated their flexibility. I would definitely recommend Fusion Bollywood to others.

Fusion Bollywood was great to work with for our wedding events. Jaz was very friendly and accommodating with different requests. Reasonable pieces and great quality, highly recommend

I recently had the pleasure of working with Fusion Bollywood for my wedding decorations at Fahad Banquet Hall, and I can confidently say that they exceeded my highest expectations. From the very first consultation with Jaz to the final touches on the big day, their dedication, professionalism, and sheer talent shone through, making my wedding an absolute dream come true.

The team at Fusion Bollywood possesses an incredible ability to bring ideas to life with their exceptional creative skills. They listened attentively to my vision and then masterfully transformed my so so venue into a dream. Every aspect of the decor was meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. From the stage and backdrop to the floral centre pieces and table runners.

Thank you, Fusion Bollywood and Jaz for making my wedding day an absolute masterpiece. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in search of a decorator for their special event.

Choosing Hilltop Wedding Centre as our venue was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the breathtaking views to the warm, welcoming atmosphere, everything about Hilltop feels magical. The grounds are beautifully maintained, offering the perfect backdrop for both the ceremony and photos, and the indoor space is just as elegant and versatile.

The staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. On the day of our wedding, they worked seamlessly with our vendors and coordinator, allowing us to focus on soaking in every moment. We truly felt supported and cared for throughout the entire experience.

Our guests are still raving about how stunning the venue was and how it created the perfect setting for a celebration filled with love and joy. Hilltop Wedding Centre is more than just a venue—it’s a place where lifelong memories are made. We couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else.

Hilltop was absolutely the perfect venue for our wedding! The setting is truly breathtaking - from the moment we first visited, we knew this was where we wanted to celebrate our special day. The grounds are absolutely stunning and provided such a beautiful backdrop for both our ceremony and reception. Every photo turned out incredible thanks to the gorgeous natural scenery.
What made our experience even more exceptional was working with Brenda, our day-of coordinator. She was absolutely phenomenal - so organized, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything ran smoothly. She kept us calm and relaxed throughout the entire day, which allowed us to actually enjoy every moment.
The combination of Hilltop's amazing natural beauty and Brenda's exceptional coordination made for a truly magical wedding day. Our guests are still raving about the venue and how seamlessly everything flowed. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting or better support team. Any couple considering Hilltop should know they're not just getting a beautiful venue - they're getting a team that genuinely cares about making your day unforgettable. Highly recommend!

I got married at Hilltop on July 4, 2025, and it was truly the most incredible experience from start to finish. One of the best parts about this venue is how seamless everything is. I never had to worry about whether the ceremony chairs would be set up or if the tent tables and chairs would be ready, everything venue wise was taken care of.

The staff were beyond professional and helpful. Both our day host and night host were there to ensure every venue-related detail ran smoothly. From emptying garbages to opening and closing the tent walls to fading the lights perfectly during speeches and dancing, they were on it. It allowed us to relax and just enjoy our day.

The venue itself is absolutely stunning. Pictures honestly don’t do it justice. Hilltop is one of those rare places that doesn’t need a ton of extra decor—it’s naturally beautiful, and everything just photographs so well. You can add your own personal touches, but you definitely don’t need to go over the top.

A big thank-you to Jennie as well!! She was always quick to reply to our emails, answer questions, and offer helpful advice throughout the planning process.

If you’re considering Hilltop for your wedding, do it. You’ll be in the best hands, and the setting will take your breath away.

Hilltop Wedding Center was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our day seamless, beautiful, and stress-free. The communication leading up to the wedding was fantastic - every question we had was answered quickly, and they provided amazing suggestions that truly helped shape our day.

Jennie, the venue coordinator, was wonderful to work with and connected us with amazing vendors that fit our vision perfectly. On the day itself, Brenda, our on-site venue manager, was such a calm and supportive presence - she made sure everything ran smoothly so we could be fully present and enjoy every moment. The bartenders they brought in were awesome. Our ceremony at the pond location was absolutely stunning - such a beautiful backdrop for such an important moment.

We are so grateful to Hilltop for helping us create the most special day of our lives. This venue will always hold a very special place in our hearts. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that’s not only gorgeous but also comes with a truly dedicated team, we would highly recommend Hilltop Wedding Center!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Hilltop Wedding Center! From the moment we first visited, we knew this was the perfect place for our wedding. The stunning views, beautifully maintained grounds, and elegant event spaces made it a dream come true.
What truly set Hilltop apart was the incredible coordination and support we received from Jennie. She was simply amazing to work with! From the start, Jennie was attentive, organized, and always one step ahead. Her communication was impeccable—she responded promptly to every question, concern, or idea we had, and she made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire planning process.
On the big day, it poured rain the entire day Jennie and the team went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, even handling unexpected details behind the scenes so we could enjoy every moment. The team was dedicated to making our dreams come true, rain or shine. Their dedication and expertise allowed us to fully relax and soak in the joy of our special day.
Our guests were blown away by the venue and the seamless coordination, and so were we! Thank you, Hilltop , and especially Jennie, for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a venue that is not only breathtaking but also comes with a team that genuinely cares, look no further than Hilltop Wedding Center.

Junto Studio is a great venue in Toronto. It was reasonably priced but more importantly, beautifully decorated. We did not need to worry about decor because the set up is already so gorgeous. We are so excited to see how our photos turn out.

We had a small wedding of 24 people that included a dinner. The communication with Rana was easy and she was so helpful with recommendations. They were accommodating with delivery times and was even dog friendly so we could have our dog there for the special event.

Kelsey helped on the day with coordination and she could not have been nicer and lovely to work with.

We would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a photography studio, or a small to medium event. Can't wait to have another occasion so we have an excuse to rent it again.

Thank you to the Junto Studio team for being part of our wedding day :)

This studio is absolutely stunning! It’s chic, clean, bohemian, refreshing, and the moment you step in, it’s picturesque!
I used this space for cover art for a song and it captured exactly what I was looking for! The host was so welcoming, and kind to us, gave us a break down of everything we needed. I could not ask for a better location. I absolutely loved it. Thank you SOO MUCH!♥️♥️♥️

Junto Studio in Toronto offers a unique wedding and photography experience with its colourful design and '70s vibe, making it perfect for couples looking for something both vibrant and nostalgic. The studio’s retro aesthetic, filled with warm tones and funky patterns, sets a lively and fun backdrop for memorable photos.

The space is bathed in natural light, enhancing the vivid colors and creating a cheerful atmosphere that reflects the joy of the occasion. Its versatile layout accommodates everything from intimate moments to lively group shots, allowing couples and their guests to fully enjoy the playful setting.

This venue is a standout choice for those who want their wedding day to be not just photographed, but celebrated in a uniquely vibrant and vintage style.

We had the pleasure of working with Junto Studio for our first out-of-province event, and they were an absolute joy to work with! Theresa and Rana, the owners, were incredibly sweet and accommodating throughout our communications. From the very beginning, they answered all our questions and got back to us in a timely manner, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free.

The venue itself is stunning and required little to no setup from our team because of how much is already included. The decor sets a groovy and inviting atmosphere for attendees, creating the perfect environment for our event. One aspect we really appreciated was the abundance of content they have on social media showcasing their space. Planning this event completely remotely was made so much easier thanks to the numerous pictures and videos available online. This allowed us to visualize how the space would work for our team well in advance of our site visit, which was just four days before the event.

Furthermore, Junto Studio provides phenomenal value for the cost. The comprehensive amenities and beautiful decor included in the rental price meant we didn't have to spend extra on additional decorations or equipment. This made it not only a convenient choice but also a cost-effective one for our nonprofit organization.

Overall, Junto Studio exceeded our expectations and provided a fantastic venue for our event. We highly recommend them for anyone looking for a stylish, well-equipped, and value-packed venue, and we can't thank Theresa and Rana enough for their exceptional service!

NotJustYou is a Sickle Cell Support Organization that is devoted to creating support systems that provide tools and resources for individuals and families affected by sickle cell disease.

We held our wedding reception at Junto Studio and it did not disappoint. We love their aesthetic - the warmth and how they decorated the place. When booking with Rana, she made the process so easy. So friendly and helpful. The experience from beginning to end was so pleasant. We will definitely consider using the event space again in the future - for another party or even a photoshoot!

get married here !!! seriously the best decision ever. from the breathtaking view & the delicious food - you won’t regret it ! The staff are all so nice & great to work with. Special shoutout to Taylor & Grant who were so kind throughout the planning process. The day of our wedding we were treated like a king and queen. Always handed a fresh drink & our food saved for us to ensure we ate & enjoyed. much love to all Belvédère team for making our wedding day truly unforgettable 💕

If you look up “magical” in the English dictionary, you’ll find a photo of Le Belvédère. Every aspect of this venue is top notch and makes your wedding feel special beyond words.

My now wife Hanna and I got married here on June 20, 2025 and we can’t stop thinking about our day. We wouldn’t change a thing about it, every aspect was wonderful.

We owe our day of coordinator Taylor a debt of gratitude, she is the absolute best. If you are planning on getting married here, I cannot recommend her enough. She anticipated and saw to our every need, making sure we wanted for nothing the entire day.

The views at Le Belvédère alone are enough to pull the trigger and book here but it is so much more than what is on the surface. It runs like a well oiled, finally crafted German sports car, everything precise, in lockstep and at peak performance. From the amazing meals to their years of experience holding special days of celebration, the whole team at this venue as a collective has made this place in my humble opinion the best choice for a wedding venue in the Greater Ottawa area.

This was my first time at Le Belvédère and I certainly hope it’s not my last. As a wedding photographer, I cannot say enough good things about this venue from a vendor’s standpoint. Aside from the obvious gorgeous views, the natural lighting is beautiful to photograph in. I definitely want to highlight how wonderful the staff were in treating the vendors as humans. It’s rare to feel cared for during a wedding day at a venue but Taylor and the rest of the staff made it happen. Not only did I have my own plate of hors d’oeuvres brought to me during cocktail hour to fuel me up, but I also had glasses of water brought to me throughout the day to stay hydrated. This may sound minor, but it’s a huge deal in 30°C weather and the attention to care and detail from the staff is huge. I truly had such a wonderful time and again, hope it’s not my last visit!

There is a reason they win Best Wedding Venue year after year. The location is incredible on its own, but the staff make every experience at this venue truly fantastic.

I am a wedding photographer and when I reached out to tour the venue simply to get a feel for the space and experience it for myself, the coordinator Taylor who handled my request was extremely generous with her time and willing to show me around, answer all of my questions, and now, after photographing weddings here, will check in to see if there's anything they can improve on as a venue.

For a vendor who works at several new venues every season, this is incredibly refreshing. But of course, I could think of nothing to say for improvements, because the venue, lighting, food, and staff are 10/10 on every level.

As a wedding photographer, Le Belvédère is easily one of my favourite venues to shoot at. After photographing a wedding here this past Saturday, I completely understand why they consistently receive glowing reviews and accolades year after year. From the moment you arrive, you're immediately struck by the incredible beauty and thoughtful design of the venue. With its breathtaking views, gorgeous ceremony spaces, and reception hall, every corner of Le Belvédère provides the perfect backdrop for unforgettable photos.

What truly sets Le Belvédère apart, however, is their extraordinary team and impeccable service. The entire staff consistently went above and beyond to ensure every moment of the day was flawless. My couple and their guests couldn't stop raving about how attentive, friendly, and professional everyone was, creating an atmosphere that felt warm and genuinely welcoming.

I must give a special shoutout to Grant, their amazing wedding coordinator. He was phenomenal from start to finish, showing unmatched attention to detail, kindness, and genuine care for every single person involved. His presence made everything run smoothly, ensuring my couple could fully relax and enjoy their special day without any worries.

Le Belvédère truly excels in every aspect—from their beautiful spaces and stunning scenery to their outstanding team and first-class service. I genuinely can't recommend Le Belvédère enough—it’s exceptional on every level and I eagerly look forward to returning to capture more wonderful weddings here!
