An early summer tent wedding at a golf course, a feminine but punchy colour palette, and a totally in love pair of newlyweds — say hello to all the ingredients needed for a completely lovely wedding!

Marina first reached out to me about a year and a half before their wedding, with no set date and with a baby on the way. They were tossing around multiple locations, and the idea of a summer or a winter wedding, so obviously there was a lot to nail down. Luckily, we had a ton of time! She then brought on Soiree Event Planning, and it all came together in a relatively short time span.

Colourful Elopement in Assiniboine Park

I’ve known Vanessa for a very long time. We first “officially” met on set a photoshoot when I worked for a bridal magazine and Vanessa was modelling for us…except I found out she was only 14 and somehow was modelling as a bride. Excuse me? But then we got to talking and it turned out we went to the same elementary school, and I think my mom was her teacher.

Fast-forward a few years, and Vanessa was interested in working with flowers. She interned for me one summer, learning some of the basics of wedding flowers and starting a cool friendship.

I was so honoured when she asked me to design for her elopement to Richard.

Maximalist Chic Museum Wedding at Alloway Hall

From the first email from Ashley to me, I was excited. I couldn’t wait to take her maximalist chic meets art gallery vibes at the Manitoba Museum (Alloway Hall) and make it all come to life through the flowers!

This wedding had literally everything I could ever ask for: phenomenal colour, delicious floral ingredients (soooo much sweet pea and oncidium orchids!), an interesting venue and challenging design elements, and a chic, caring client who was just thrilling to work with. A total dream day ✨

Chic White and Green Tent Wedding near Winnipeg

I designed for more all-white-and-green weddings in 2023 than I have in years. I’m always a little surprised because I’m very vocal about my love for colour, but when I started talking with Kyra, I totally fell in love with her chic vision for their tent wedding at a family property just outside of Winnipeg.

Tent weddings, my friends. There are a lot of potential issues that can come up and I had to roll with a few punches during setup for Kyra and Luke’s wedding (helllloooooo wind — it knocked over quite a few vases, broke just one candle holder, and also knocked out the power in the entire neighbourhood for a few hours). But, it all came together beautifully in the end!

Modern Country Tent Wedding near Winnipeg

Okay, my friends. Get ready. This wedding is the brainchild of one half of the very popular Rae + Dot Studios, which means that everything was designed to perfection, no detail was left unattended, and the party looked like it was killer.

The wedding was held on Lexi’s family farm, which is IDYLLIC. Granted as I’m writing this, it’s wintertime and I would love to feel that warm sun (it was actually so hot this day) and smell warm wheat fields right now, but just take one look at all of those trees and the huge lawn! It was the perfect setting for their tent wedding just outside of Winnipeg.
