Vanessa and AJ’s wedding was a beautiful day filled with personalized details that made it truly unique. The romantic forest theme was evident in the photo shoot at Kortright Centre for Conservation, with the beautiful autumnal colors setting the tone for the day.
The DIY decor for the ceremony was simple yet elegant, with white lanterns and pumpkins adorned with white and gold leaves on all of the pews. The autumn look was carried throughout the day and night, with beautiful white flowers, including roses and calla lilies, featured in the bridal bouquet and bridesmaids’ bouquets.
The groom’s boutonniere included a small guitar in honor of AJ’s father who had passed away. The wrestling entrance songs for each pair of the bridal party was a personal touch, as was the signature drink, “The Flaming Roah,” a play on the couple’s last name and tribute to their favorite show.
AJ looked dashing in a custom-made dark green suit jacket that complemented the autumn theme, while Vanessa’s grand dress was perfect for the day. Walking down the aisle with all eyes and cameras on her was an out of body experience, but it was one of the many special moments of the day.
For couples planning their day, Vanessa and AJ offer some advice: don’t sweat the small stuff. There will be problems, but just roll with it and still enjoy your day. It’s a day filled with love and joy, so focus on that and everything else will fall into place.
Venue: The Royalton Hospitality
