Aurora and Blake’s love story spans over a decade. They first met in their hometown of London, Ontario at a local bar.
Blake proposed on a romantic beach in Positano, with a custom-designed engagement ring. This set the stage for a wedding that was equal parts elegant and fun.
The design details were a true reflection of Aurora and Blake’s personalities. From custom curved tables inspired by a unique image shared by their planner, to a whimsical phone booth installation. Every element added a playful yet refined touch. A coordinated seating chart and stationery tied the look together seamlessly.
The lively cocktail hour featured a live sketch artist and a photo booth. Guests indulged in gourmet bites and signature drinks. It was the perfect prelude to an unforgettable evening.
Aurora and Blake’s ceremony was a highlight of the day, filled with heartfelt moments. Aurora, who admits to only feeling nervous about the first dance and her speech, walked down the aisle to traditional church music. Her favourite moment? Holding Blake’s hand after reaching him at the altar and sharing a quiet, intimate exchange amidst the excitement.
Blake, on the other hand, had been eagerly anticipating that very moment, as he hadn’t seen Aurora’s dress and was still savouring their private vows from earlier that morning.
Their first dance was to Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together.” A song that holds a special place in their hearts. The couple often listens to Al Green while cooking and cleaning. This made it the perfect choice to mark the start of their married life. Aurora, who jokingly describes herself as a “horrible dancer,” let Blake’s natural grace and confidence take the lead, creating a moment that was as heartfelt as it was fun.
The reception was a celebration of love and laughter, with Aurora and Blake’s carefree personalities shining through every detail.
Guests danced the night away to ABBA classics, fulfilling Aurora’s dream of an unforgettable dance floor. The couple’s custom curved tables, combined with the stunning floral arrangements, elevated the reception’s aesthetic, leaving guests in awe.
Aurora and Blake’s advice for couples planning their wedding? Don’t sweat the small stuff. The process is far more enjoyable when you embrace the journey and let go of perfection.
With a team of talented vendors and their shared love for each other, Aurora and Blake’s wedding was a true celebration of their unique love story—a day filled with joy, beauty, and cherished memories.
