Fabulous wedding featured in this recent entry on the Style Me Pretty blog. Of special interest were the elegant wedding invitations.
When we started planning our wedding we knew we wanted to create a setting that was a true reflection of our personalities and life together while making the evening a memorable event for our guests. Our first priority was to find the right venue. Through our work in the Montreal wedding industry we had seen so many weddings in different venues and we knew right away that we wouldn’t have the wedding in a traditional wedding hall, nor did we want it somewhere that we had seen a lot of other weddings. We wanted to find a place that would feel unique to us. We loved the idea of getting married in an industrial, loft style art gallery. The Parisian Laundry had everything we were looking for: old Montreal character, huge windows, exposed brick, and it definitely wasn’t a place that typically holds wedding. It was perfect! Since it is first and foremost an art gallery, they have very little availability for private events. Serendipitously we were driving by one afternoon and stopped to inquire about availability for Sept 4th, which was our first choice for wedding date. As it turns out they were between exhibits that weekend and could accommodate us. As we were discussing details with the gallery coordinator, someone else called to reserve the same date. Fortunately, just moments before we had placed our reservation. Talk about good timing! The next priority was photography, and this was an easy one for us. We knew Davina + Daniel’s work, and we knew that they had exactly the right style that we wanted for our wedding. They approach their work with a photojournalistic style, and achieve photos that not only document events, but also truly convey the emotion of the moment. Plus, they are cool people that are pretty fun to spend the day with!See all the details here
