Our first Eco Wedding; featured in Chic Magazine!!


I was so excited to see that one of our weddings was featured in the recent issue of Chic Wedding Magazine!!!

Reachel and Ryan were married this past July at the beautiful Hyatt Montreal Hotel. They were a couple from Toronto, that decided to get married in Montreal, because they just loved everything about Montreal!!! Photos of the wedding were captured by our friends at Phototerra (AGAIN!!!).

Below is what Rachel had to say about her wedding... don't forget to pick up your copy of Chic magazine... it's on newsstands now and to see more photos of the wedding you could visit our facebook fanpage!


The summer of 1995 was bliss – it was the summer that me and my husband first started dating. Ryan was 19 years old and I had turned sweet 16. We met in high school in our hometown of Fort Frances, in Northwestern Ontario. We weren’t sure whether or not our relationship would last beyond the summer as Ryan was heading off to university and we’d be a 20 hour drive apart.


Fast forward to fourteen years later and he we are still together, happy to call the city of Toronto our home. Although we were almost the last of our friends to get married, the timing to felt perfect for us. Ryan and I decided to do a destination wedding in Montreal, Quebec. It has the European flare that we desired, yet still close enough to Toronto that we could take part in the planning process. With the help of our wedding planner, Madeleine Kojakian - That's ME!! :) we were able to create the wedding of our dreams – non-traditional, modern and with an overall eco-organic feel. I know this sounds very cliché, but it honestly was the best day of our lives. The weather turned out gorgeous and we were surrounded by all our friends and family who made the trip using planes, trains and automobiles to get there! Michael Greenberg of Phototerra Studio was our incredibly talented wedding photographer who did the most amazing job at capturing the beauty of every single moment of our day. We are thankful to everyone involved in our special day for all your help and dedication – it could not have turned out more perfect without you!


I can't stop watching our slide show!!! I love it, love it, love it!!! Ryan absolutely loved it too - we are so happy about the way the pictures turned out - Michael is such a fantastic artist. And I LOVE the music you picked out - very cool. It's stuck in my head now:) It's very exciting to show our family - we are getting phenomenal feedback!
