Estates of Sunnybrook Wedding | Claire + Chris

This's a beautiful Korean wedding lunch reception at the Estates of Sunnybrook I had the pleasure to shoot by the side of Steven at Glisten Photography. Sunnybrook Estates was quite a popular wedding venue for young couples. It had multiple rooms for weddings of different sizes. Yet Sunnybrook's more than a regular banquet hall. The three main areas at Sunnybrook, Vaughan Estate, The Couch House and McLean House, each was a separate building on its own and hence had their private space. Each house had their own characteristics. Sunnybrook also had more than one well maintained gardens for outdoor ceremony. It's a gorgeous space for summer weddings and fall weddings. Claire and Chris's intimate Korean wedding took place at the smaller McLean House. It's a simple ceremony followed by a laid-back lunch reception. I felt that Claire and Chris had picked a wedding venue and planned a day that's perfect for them. The wedding's casual and sweet. It's a minimalistic celebration with close friends and families. I really enjoyed documenting a day like this.

Crescent School Intimate Wedding | Iva + Nermin

On this day, Iva and Nermin were surrounded by closest friends and family and celebrated their intimate wedding in a private school in Toronto. Crescent School was a hidden germ in the city for small weddings. It's located conveniently on Bayview at a private, beautiful spot. There's a high ceiling space for indoor reception and a gorgeous garden for outdoor ceremony and a little patio for outdoor dance floor. Moreover, it had great architectures for photos. It's all in all a unique all-in-one wedding venue. Iva and Nermin set up their own wedding in the morning and received their guests with a big smile in the afternoon as the ceremony's about to start. Iva and Nermin's down-to-earth vibe was contagious. After a quick and easy ceremony and taking some wedding portraits around the school, Iva quickly changed into a casual evening dress. Iva and Nermin skipped the grand entrance and quietly walked into the reception and mingled with friends. Iva and Nermin made funny faces during first dance and called this ritual cheesy. "We are not cheesy people" Iva commented. Together, they made their wedding a big party with lots of laughters and minimal rituals. It's a personalized, alternative wedding that focused on having a fun time with friends and family.
