April 28th, 2012 I married the man of my dreams in a romantic and fun 1940s/50s swing dancing themed wedding. It was an amazing day filled with lots of amazing memories with friends and family. So Happy One Year Anniversary to Us!
Here are some pics from that day (not all just a high level overview). Enjoy!
My Vintage Brooch Bouquet and Irregular Choice Scottie Dog Shoes.
We did the “see me moment” at the hotel before our wedding photos and it turned out so well with family and friends being there. Doesn’t my husband look so good?? ahhhh…
My 1950s style wedding dress was purchased in NYC and custom fitted for me. The designer was called “Fancy Bridal NY”. They were amazing and so wonderful to work with.
Wedding Photos were taken at the Historic Distillery District in Toronto. Look at those handsome groomsmen in their kilts (the tall guy on the right is my brother).
The Wedding and Reception was held at the BEAUTIFUL St. Lawrence Hall in downtown Toronto.
After the Wedding we had a cocktail reception where you could type well wishes on a vintage typewriter and then look for your table from the Pinups board.
The table assignments were pinup illustrations.
My giant wedding cupcake with Shrek and Fiona (my husband nickname was Shrek).
The seat assignments on the tables were vintage sewing pattern illustrations from the 1940s and 1950s that I cut out myself for 120 people and then glued them onto place cards. DIY Wedding indeed!
The Party was alot of fun! We had great DJ’d music all night and a photo booth that was busy all night long π My mother law is the one shaking her shaker in the wheel chair.
After it was all done, we came back to our hotel room (much later in the night. We all ended up at a Jazz club at 1am for some swing dancing ) to see this. LOL! Those crazy friends and family π
What a great time π Happy anniversary to anyone else sharing the same date as well π
