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.
Ottawa wedding shows you should attend!
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!
Caleigh and Alex | Feb 09, 2019 | Restaurant 18
What a fantastic wedding to kick start 2019! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and loving couple, gorgeous blue skies, loving family and friends to celebrate the two people that couldn't love each other more! Every single moment we captured was Caleigh and Alex non-stop laughing, smiling, kissing, or hugging each other. These two are the definition of L O V E!!!

Many of us think of wedding cake as a stable element of any wedding, alongside things like your white dress or your floral bouquet.

We will try to help you answer those crucial questions like: how big should it be, how much should it cost, what flavours to have?
Jill & Donny / June 23, 2018 / Saunders Farm
We had the remarkable honour of capturing Jill and Donny's wedding at Saunders last summer. If the amount of fun we had frolicking with their adorable pup Ruby around Bruce Pit for their engagement session was any indication, we knew we would have a blast capturing their big day! Jill and Donny are such genuinely nice people with personalities that draw you in. They share a love for travelling, for Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, and for animals.
