Stephanie and Senate’s wedding was the perfect fusion of high style and playful spirit. Hosted at the JW Marriott Edmonton, the celebration balanced formal elegance with a joyful palette of pastels — a reflection of the couple’s vibrant personalities and love for modern design.

Colourful blooms took centre stage, bringing a sense of whimsy and movement to the space. The artful tablescapes came to life with a mix of bud vases, fruit, candlelight, and custom stationery. Some of the standout details included a lush floral cloud beneath the 3-tier blue wedding cake, and a custom-built seating display that welcomed guests into the reception.

Set against the natural beauty of the Alberta countryside, Brandy and Kyle’s spring wedding at Black Barn was intimate, relaxed and full of charm — a perfect reflection of their down-to-earth connection.

With a soft palette of white, dusty blue and fresh greenery, we embraced the rustic warmth of the venue while elevating the space with refined, garden-inspired details. The ceremony took place outdoors beneath a wooden arbour, surrounded by sweeping prairie views. Inside the barn, guests were welcomed into a romantic setting featuring dainty florals, an airy tablescape, and a stunning rattan chandelier installation. Verdant greenery cascaded from the ceiling beams, bringing the outdoors in and creating a sense of natural whimsy.

From the heartfelt ceremony to a lively evening of celebration, Brandy and Kyle’s day was a beautiful reminder that simplicity — when done with intention — is nothing short of magical.

Amy and Martin’s wedding day was a beautiful reflection of their calm, grounded energy. Opting for an intimate ceremony with just their immediate families at the historic UofA Arts Building, the couple created space for meaningful connection before joining their full guest list at the Royal Glenora Club for a relaxed and elegant reception.

In line with their laid-back personalities and desire for a day that felt effortless and unfussy, we designed the reception with a clean, classic green and white palette, accented by soft linens and natural wood textures – including gorgeous Wishbone chairs. Floor-to-ceiling windows flooded the space with natural light and offered sweeping views of Edmonton’s River Valley, while organic floral arrangements brought in texture and depth without feeling overdone.

Amy honoured her South Asian heritage with mehndi, and Martin’s mom made a traditional Danish wedding cake — a personal touch that added even more heart to the celebration. From beginning to end, the day was authentic, beautiful and full of love.

Dyanna and Ryan had the most amazing wedding weekend in the beautiful Okanagan! We kicked off the festivities with a welcome event at 19 Okanagan, a stunning open air restaurant on a golf course.

The next day, the couple tied the knot at Sanctuary Gardens – a picturesque ceremony venue in West Kelowna with stunning views of the lake. Luckily, the rain tapered off right before the ceremony and made for some beautiful photos. The reception was held at The Laurel Packinghouse in downtown Kelowna. Romantic florals and soft fabrics created a beautiful juxtaposition amidst the historic event space, with an open beam ceiling and brick walls.

It’s always such a treat to plan and produce destination weddings and multi-day events in the Kelowna area. Enjoy this look back at Dyanna and Ryan’s Okanagan wedding weekend!

Palm Springs has always been a bucket list destination for us, so when we got the call from Haley and Marco, it was a match made in wedding planning heaven!

Over 150 guests joined the couple in the Palm Springs area for a weekend of celebration. It was important that we designed events reflective of Haley and Marco’s fun-loving personalities. They are social butterflies and love to host their friends – FUN was a priority!

Haley and Marco hosted a “welcome fiesta” on Cinco de Mayo the day prior to the wedding (since it fell on May 5th). The event was held at a private residence in Indian Wells, and was brightly decorated with vibrant colours, florals and pool lanterns. Guests indulged in signature margaritas, tacos and churros, and were serenaded by a Mariachi band. It was the perfect way to kick off the weekend festivities.

This wedding was featured on the front page of Style Me Pretty, and you can check out Part 2 here.

Avery and James celebrated their summer wedding at Edmonton’s Castle in the River Valley, the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald. Over 200 guests joined to celebrate Avery and James, as they exchanged vows on the Empire Terrace under a lush, English garden inspired floral arch and sunny blue skies. An ice cream cart kept guests cool while the couple took photos with their Wedding Party throughout the afternoon.

The reception was held inside the Empire Ballroom, where a palette of subdued peaches, blush and dusty blue perfectly accented the traditional Fairmont aesethetic. After a delicious meal, guests enjoyed dancing the night away.
