Hello! One of the trickiest part of my work as a wedding planner/designer is often explaining my vision to a client. A bride will come to me saying she wants a warm, intimate wedding in an industrial kind of space, and a light bulb will immediately go off in my head.

What most of you don’t know, however, is that this very lovely couple had just short of 6 weeks to plan the entire affair. Mary-Lou and Peter were initially set to marry in Mexico, but due to an unfortunate accident at their resort in November, they decided to re-organize their entire plans and move their wedding to Montreal. So when they called me in mid-November, you can imagine how excited I was to pick up the challenge!

Hello, Last week I posted a golden inspiration board. I’m still feeling the metallics, but since I am a few weeks away from a gray and ivory winter wedding, and since we are pretty much covered in a thick blanket of snow, I’m feeling silver today. Hope you’re inspired! xoxo
