City Rustic Wedding at Malaparte

Shannon & Matthew's Beautiful Rooftop Wedding

Colour palette: Jade green, navy blue, grey, white & gold
Style: Modern & rustic


After meeting, Shannon and Matthew, I knew I would have fun planning their big day with them! Shannon was meticulously organized and knew exactly what she wanted but such a dream to work with. She wanted to bring a little countryside styling to the urban setting of their rooftop wedding. We made sure to utilized all the beautiful spaces the guests got to explore from the bright lobby where we set up a selfie backdrop with laser-cut names of the couple, the stunning white rooftop tent ceremony, the outdoor elevated cocktail area and the sleek sloped ceilings of the main reception room.

We added the rustic flair to the trailing ribbon on the bouquets, the grey textured linens, the wood box centrepiece containers, the harvest wood chairs, garlands on the guest tables, the dessert station decor, the succulent favours and the home-made cookie favours. 

You could see how Toronto's modernity was infused into the wedding as well from the cocktail furniture, the gold cutlery, modern letterpress invitations, the immaculate food and the view from Malaparte's rooftop of King Street West. 

One of my favourite details was the fact that the bride, Shannon, actually made the entire dessert table and the cookie desserts.. that didn't last past salads!

Thank you for trusting me on your wedding day and I wish you both all the best!

My Wedding in Weddingbells Magazine!

I am thrilled to say that our wedding has been featured in the Spring/Summer 2018 edition of Weddingbells Magazine!

It was a busy wedding season with so many amazing weddings in the books but also my own wedding to plan right in the middle of the season. It was pretty easy to do the responsibilities I usually take on as a planner especially since I did much of the booking beforehand.. the hard part was being the bride! The tasks such as finalizing the guest lists, restricting plus ones, making sure the out of town guests were content and fighting back tears to not smudge my make-up on the day were the things I was not used to. All-in-all, all of it was well worth it and it was the perfect day. We could not have had better weather, the room was overflowing with love, everything looked stunning as my team took on the wedding execution and the food was phenomenal. Thank you to everyone that was apart of our special day!
