OUR STORY: “Eric and I met in 2012 when we were part of another wedding together; my brother and Eric’s cousin. BUT we both were with other people at the time. We just both knew there was something there. It took till 2017 when his sister came to me to get her hair done for Eric and I to finally realize that we both had the same feelings for one an other. We added each other to social media, and the rest seemed to be history from then on. We were inseparable and planned every moment out. On February 14, 2019 he asked me to marry him on the sky wheel in Niagara Falls!” - A FLORALS: Florist of Flowers Wonderland (forestofflowerswonderland.com) London, ON DÉCOR: Tulle Tyme (tulletyme.ca) London, ONBRIDE ATTIRE: Sophie’s Gown Shoppe (sophiesgownshoppe.com) London, ONBRIDESMAID ATTIRE: David’s Bridal (davidsbridal.ca) London, ONGROOM + GROOMSMEN ATTIRE: Collins Formal Wear (♥) (collinsformalwear.com) London, ONHAIR: Village Hair Co.

They took our party to the next level, they also provided us with our photo booth and the two girls that worked that night we’re great and made it fun for everyone.” - ABIGGEST CHALLENGE: “I think there are many challenges when planning a wedding, but one of the biggest ones for us was family and just making sure everyone was good and no one was offended.” - A BEST MEMORY: “Eric says walking down the isle right after you get married facing all the people you’ve invited and seeing everyone’s faces. I would say the at the end of the day getting to just relax and dance with everyone. The whole day was amazing I just wish I could go back and do it all over again. To see everyone and just feel that love, the love you feel on your wedding day is like non else it’s simply amazing!" - A •

It was so convenient for all of our guests! Natalie was such a pleasure to work with, she helped me every step of the way and put me in contact with great vendors.” - J&T# GUESTS: 115COLOUR PALETTE: Grey, silver, white and greenery from flowersPHOTOGRAPHY/CAKE/DJ: Flair Cakes, Photography And Entertainment (facebook.com/FlairCakesPhotography) “I found our photographer through a Facebook wedding group.

What I loved most was that they are a husband and wife team and offered a package including 2 photographers, DJ and wedding cake. We got married in the fall and have the most stunning photos with the orange and red of the leaves. They captured my day perfectly!” - J DECOR/FLORALS: Time4Flowers (time4flowers.ca)GROOM + GROOMSMEN’S ATTIRE: Tip Top Tailors (tiptoptailors.ca)BRIDE'S ATTIRE: Say Yes to the Dress Canada - Amanda Lina Sposa (amandalinas.com) BRIDESMAID ATTIRE: Lulus (lulus.com) & Light In The Box (lightinthebox.com)HAIR: Traveling Hair Stylist (thetravellinghairartist.ca)MAKEUP: Vamped up Beauty (facebook.com/vampedupbeauty)BIGGEST CHALLENGE: “Our biggest challenge was trying to plan the entire day ourselves long distance. We moved to London 3 months prior

to our wedding date, so we booked everything unseen. Making sure the day of timeline was perfected and making sure all of our vendors and all other aspects were confirmed. Thank goodness we gave ourselves a year and a half to plan. Definitely needed it!” - J&TBEST MEMORY: “The best memory I have of our wedding day was when my violinist began playing my parents wedding song that I walked down the aisle to. Looking at my dad with tears as we started down the aisle and seeing my husband to be standing at the end of it with our 3 children in our wedding party.” - JADVICE, ONE BRIDE TO ANOTHER: “I was given the advice to remember to take in every moment and enjoy your day. Not everything will go as planned and that’s ok! I kept this in mind and I really took the time to let everything sink in! It really was one of the very best days of my life!” - J •

The beautiful chapel and incredibly helpful staff at the Inn were unbeatable.” - J&C# GUESTS: 120THEME/COLOUR PALETTE: Modern & Rustic. “Crystal and I are very simple people and wanted our decorations to be simple and elegant.

We fell pretty quickly for each other and started dating after a year. We began our lives together on an

adventure into new careers and our relationship. In 2017 we were absolutely elated when we welcomed our daughter into the world.

ADVICE, TWO BRIDES TO ANOTHER: “Our

“Natalie was amazing! She made everything so easy and it was very affordable. We wanted to keep our wedding reception under $10,000 and we were sur-prised when it came to much less. We had 50 guests, strolling food stations, and an open bar. Their all in-clusive packages are amazing! Natalie had me meet with the in house decorator who did all the decorat-ing and even helped me with my flowers which I had forgotten to order. It was literally all taken care of for me and I honestly had zero stress.” - Kristy & Jason

BRIDE & GROOM: Kaitlan and Bobby CookWEDDING DATE: January 19th, 2019LOCATION: Best Western PLUS Stoneridge Inn & Conference Centre (♥) (stoneridgeinn.com), London, ON “Bobby grew up right around the corner from the venue, so naturally it was one of the first locations we toured. We loved the fact that everything could be held in one location, including guest accommodation (especially in January). I fell in love with the Rose Chapel and all of it's exposed brick. Our ballroom was large enough for a band (which was super important to us) and had private washrooms for guests. A decor package was also available, making it easy to plan a wedding from Ottawa. Ironically one of our first dates was at Pasto's (the restaurant onsite) so we knew the food was amazing!” - K# GUESTS: 120BUDGET: $25,000THEME: "I wanted our winter wedding to be elegant and timeless. We went with a neutral colour palette with a touch of sparkle." - KPHOTOGRAPHY: Kelly Taylor - The Bridal Lounge Photography (thebridallounge.ca),

Ingersoll, ON “I know Kelly from growing up in Ingersoll. Her personality makes you feel at ease, her direction is fun and natural. I love her out-of-the-box thinking and her eye for a good shot. Bobby and I were all in for our photos and totally committed to the process. We froze, we got dirty, we were all picking burrs out of my dress, but man was it worth it!"- K FLORALS: Springhill Flowers (springhillflowers.com) London, ON FAV DECOR ELEMENT: "We used an old mirrored closet door and hired a calligrapher (Crafted Together Co. (facebook.com/craftedtogetherco) Ottawa ON) to write "Find your Seat", our names and wedding date." - KCHEESECAKE: "We requested to have a "cheesecake bar"as dessert. The venue provided us with a cake stand with multiple tiers, which resembled a wedding cake. We filled it with mini round cheesecakes and had guests serve themselves and top their own cheesecake. It was a hit!" - K GROOM + GROOMSMEN’S ATTIRE: Moore's Clothing for Men (mooresclothing.com) London, ON

BRIDE'S ATTIRE: Sew Stylish Wedding Works (♥) (sewstylishweddingworks.com) Ingersoll, ON LIVE MUSIC: Soul Tripper (soultripperband.com) Woodstock, ONHAIR: Hair by Shelby, St. Thomas ONMAKEUP: Blush & Glow- Makeup by Lis (facebook.com/makeupbylisv) Tillsonburg, ONADVICE, ONE BRIDE TO ANOTHER: “Some little take aways I learned from my wedding day: 1. Invest in a cute hanger for your dress. 2. Make sure you are centred for your "I do's". 3. Ok... now for some heart to heart advice: You go through so many emotions and so many special moments throughout your wedding day. When it's all over... take some time to reflect. We had the best day, but it truly goes by so quickly and feels like a blur immediately after. A few weeks after I struggled with the thought of it being over. I wanted to relive the day all over again. But as time goes on, the memories become more clear and they bring you so much happiness. Your wedding day is just the start of your forever, and you have so much life to live together. So many more memories to make!" - K •

“Our guests had an amazing time and everything was perfect. Please extend our thanks to everyone that helped, the staff was

amazing and definitely went above and beyond!!” - Crystal and Jess

“I just wanted to say thanks...you’re staff were amazing!!! Our guests raved about the food and accommodations. So thanks

again for making our day so special.” -Ellen and Rob

“Karen and I wanted to take the time to thank you for all you’ve done. When we first came to you to look at your venue, we loved it, but had reservations because the cost was more than we wanted to spend on this celebration. When we looked at other venues for our celebration, we realized that a lot of the venues were “cold” and there was not a lot of customer service or “help” in getting ques-tions answered. There was a lot of unknowns. From the begin-

ning, your venue was “warm” and welcoming. You were always there answering our million questions that we had along the way and in the end, even though the celebration went quite a bit over our budget, Karen and I both agree that it was well worth it. The celebration went off without a hitch and your staff was extremely personable and helpful. The day of the celebration, we dealt with Kim who was there to help us and we cannot say enough about her. She bent over backwards to make sure that everything was there that we needed and to make sure everything ran smoothly. Your staff at the front desk were very helpful as well. Everyone at our celebration had a great time and had nothing but great things to say about the venue including the chapel. If we were to ever plan another event down the road, you can be assured that we would book with you again and we will surely recommend the venue to others. Thanks again from the bottom of our hearts for all you’ve done! You made it a great success!!” - Andrew and Karen

Throwing the ultimate bridal showerA bridal shower is one of several fun, wedding-related celebra-tory events that allow a couple’s close friends and family mem-bers to spend time together.

It’s a chance for everyone to get to know each other before the wedding day while also “showering” the bride-to-be with gifts! What could be better?!

Traditionally, planning the bridal shower is left up to the Maid of Honour and Bridesmaids, but today, really anyone can host the event.

PLANNINGUnless it’s a surprise, you should involve the bride in the plan-ning process. Ask her to create a registry if she hasn’t already. Maybe she has a particular shower theme in mind, like a lingerie shower, a kitchen item shower or an around-the-clock shower where guests are assigned a time of day for selecting a gift.

CHOOSING A LOCATIONA bridal shower can take place anywhere. Traditionally it is often hosted at the host’s home, but any place works: a favorite restaurant, park, banquet hall, etc. It all depends on the size of the guest list.

Best Western Plus Stoneridge Inn offers many options when it comes to hosting your shower, and includes the following:• Beautifully appointed rooms that require very little décor which saves on cost• Custom menus to meet just about any budget• Décor packages for those who want to let the experts take care of these details• Convenient location with lots of free parking

Best Western Plus Stoneridge Inn, has both large and more intimate spaces which are ideal for accommodating a fabulous bridal or Jack&Jill shower!

TIMINGA bridal shower can be held anywhere from six months to the week before a wedding. If many guests are traveling from out of town, it may make sense to have it closer to the wedding so they can attend. Otherwise, four to eight weeks before the wedding often works best. Any time of day is acceptable for a bridal show-er. Many bridal showers are held during the afternoon or early evening as a luncheon or dinner party.

WHO TO INVITEYou want to be absolutely sure that you’re not inviting anyone to the shower who isn’t invited to the wedding, and the only way to know that is to get the guest list. Ask the bride for a copy. If the shower is a surprise, ask the bride’s mother or fiancé.

Remember to invite close female relatives of both the bride and groom, as well as all the women in the wedding party and the bride’s close friends.

While bridal shower guests are traditionally all women, today many are co-ed affairs that celebrate both the bride and groom, known as “Jack and Jill” showers!

WHAT TO EXPECTMost of the bridal shower will be spent eating, laughing, telling stories and opening presents. Food can be as simple as light bites, or as elaborate as a themed spread that celebrates the couple, with a luxe cake to match.

Assign someone to write down what each gift is (usually written inside the card) and who it is from, as the bride opens them. This will make thank you note writing much, much easier!

Fun bridal shower games are a great way to keep the party mov-ing if they’re conducive to the event space.

GAME IDEAS• Bow bouquet the bride can use for her rehearsal• Toilet paper dress and veil• Play Bridal BINGO• Purse Scavenger Hunt – have guests go through their purses to find a list of common items like lipstick and compact to not so common like dog treats or lint• Here Comes the Bride – guess how the groom answered a list of questions about the bride or their relationship• Wedding A-Z – have guests write wedding related words next to each letter of the alphabet• Pass the Love Story – pass around a piece of paper and have the guests exaggerate the “story” of how the couple met and fell in love• Bridal Pictionary – use common phrases like “going to the chapel”, “bouquet toss”, “first dance” and have guests draw them out on flip chart paper.
