Weddings

Kalinka + Adriano — Your love is all I ever dreamt of.

We’ve said it before and we know we’ll say it again: the most sig­nif­i­cant piece of advise we can give our cou­ples is to be ful­ly present in and enjoy the wed­ding day. Tru­ly live it. Take in every moment of the celebration.

It makes all the dif­fer­ence in the final wed­ding video.

You can feel the ener­gy when a cou­ple is ful­ly invest­ed in their day. The guests’ excite­ment dur­ing the cock­tail hour tends to build into incred­i­ble recep­tion entrances and wild dance floors. It’s a vibe.

Emma + Mark — You’re the line to my kite.

There are some wed­ding films that are almost impos­si­ble to describe because the video itself so per­fect­ly encap­su­lates a cou­ple and their cel­e­bra­tion. This is the case for Emma and Mark.

I mean, how do you put into words Emma’s infec­tious laugh­ter, Mark’s calm­ing pres­ence, how pal­pa­ble their love is when they are with each oth­er, or how their wed­ding com­plete­ly trans­formed Ever­green Brick­works with one of the most elab­o­rate cock­tail and recep­tion lay­outs we’ve ever seen.

Madi + Alan — You have made me so fundamentally happy.

Set on their family’s pri­vate island in Musko­ka, Madi and Alan’s cel­e­bra­tion is one we’ve been look­ing for­ward to from the moment we met with them almost a year ago.

The two would be boat­ing over their entire guest list for a par­ty span­ning the whole island — from Alan’s prep in the bunkhouse, to Madi’s in the main cot­tage, their cer­e­mo­ny on the dock and a tent­ed recep­tion on the ten­nis courts. There was plen­ty of dis­tance for their loved ones to tra­verse, but there were beau­ti­ful dec­o­ra­tions and details to be admired (as well as plen­ty of drinks to be had) along the way.

Baby Riley | A birth story

PAUSE

We pause for many rea­sons: to lis­ten, to reflect, to revere, to be present. We pause for lit­tle things — like cross­ing the street — and big things — like tak­ing time away from our busy sched­ules to cel­e­brate hol­i­days and spe­cial occa­sions. For the past year, we’ve had to pause for our safe­ty and pause became a per­pet­u­al part of every day life. Each of us have had our own set of com­pro­mis­es, dis­ap­point­ments, and hard­ships and we had to find new ways to embrace this state of being.

Bianca + Massimo — I’m lucky to call you my better half.

You wouldn’t be able to tell after watch­ing Bian­ca and Massimo’s film that their wed­ding took place in the mid­dle of a pandemic.

Yet despite all the hur­dles, hard­ships and dif­fi­cul­ties that 2020 pre­sent­ed these two, they nev­er wavered. They were going to get mar­ried on Sep­tem­ber 26 regard­less of what that cel­e­bra­tion looked like. There’s some­thing real­ly pow­er­ful about that sentiment.
