Glamorous St. Ann's Academy wedding

Victoria and Brendan are an adorable couple. Victoria has these amazing eyes and she knows how to work them. When Victoria was telling me how she envisioned her wedding day (almost 2 years ago when we met for the first time). She weaved this vision of a romantic, intimate wedding that was glamorous and unique. I have to say her wedding day was just that.

I met the ladies as they got ready in the historic Dashwood Manor overlooking the ocean. No rain just a bit of a chill. I have to give the ladies credit for braving the cold for the photos. They raved about Sandy from Details Special Events and how she fixed everything that went wrong effortlessly, Victoria mentioned how she wished she had her right from the beginning.

The ceremony was a perfect blend of a traditional filipino ceremony with a modern interpretation and their own personal touches added to it. After family photos a carriage picked up the couple and all the out of town guests for a horse drawn carriage ride around the city.

The Gatsby mansion was perfectly decorated everything colour co-ordinated and the crystal chandeliers really made you feel like you where in a fairytale. All the tables were scattered throughout the mansion making the dinner intimate.

Speeches where fantastic, making everyone both laugh and cry. The cake was beautiful and delicious. Thanks for making me stay for a piece of cake. When the music started everyone joined in for a dance and it look like everyone had an amazing time. Good food, good music and good friends.

What a perfect Victoria wedding day. You can't tell because that dress is so amazing but Victoria is 6 months pregnant. Congratulations and feel free to stop in to visit when you are in town I can't wait to see your baby.
