Taking photos is one of the best ways to capture moments. People love to document where they are, who they are with, and of course, how much fun they are having. Weddings are one of those events where everyone can let loose, imbibe a bit of alcohol, and are definitely more willing to have their photos taken. Add silly props to this, and they're pretty much guaranteed to have an excellent time. Below are five reasons you NEED a photo booth at your wedding!
How can we not fall in love with this wedding? Laura and Jackson's big day was truly one for the books for us here at Mocha Tree Studios.
Laura and Jackson's wedding day began with us photographing them at their getting ready locations in Wakefield, Quebec. As many of you know, Wakefield is such a dreamy little town, and it was a perfect setting for these two to start their big day. With five bridesmaids and five groomsmen, the energy was high, and the shenanigans were afoot! Theirs is the kind of wedding party we would wish for every couple: everyone was super sweet and helpful, but also really, really fun to be around! Just check out those photos of the ladies on the bed with champagne glasses on hand!
Wedding planning can be overwhelming, no doubt about that! There are so many moving pieces throughout the planning stage and throughout the wedding day itself that choosing your wedding vendors can be a daunting task! After all, these will be the people that you have to trust to make your wedding vision a reality; these will be the people who will be accompanying you in the months ahead as you plan your big day.
I met Carla (from Capital Florist) a few years ago when we both took part in a Halloween-themed styled-shoot. At the time, Carla was a part-time florist who was eager to shed her day-job to pursue her passion full-time. By the time I met her, she already had years of experience as a florist and exuded the warmth and earnestness that she has come to be known by her clients and peers. Yes, her floral designs are to-die-for, but she is also just super fun to have around! Fast forward several years later to now, Carla has become one of Ottawa's most popular florists. She leads a team of talented floral designers who are all over Ottawa on weekends installing or delivering beautiful floral arrangements. This lady boss is a master-florist, a brand-savvy entrepreneur, and an overall amazing person.
We love wedding shows! We go to a few every year as exhibitors where we get to meet so many excited couples planning their wedding celebration. In our previous blogs, we've talked about great reasons why you should attend wedding shows and we provided you with tips on how to make the most out of it! In this blog, we will give you a rundown of 5 wedding shows in Ottawa that you should definitely check out! One has already passed, but several more are on the way. When Michael and I were planning our wedding, attending these wedding shows really helped us narrow down our vendors so in this blog I'll give you a quick preview of each one, based on the size, number of vendors, location, and overall general vibe so that you can decide which one is right for you!
