Safiya & Casio's Fall Fiesta

It could not have been a more perfect day for Safiya & Casio's wedding day last Fall. With clear blue skies and warm sunshine the day was ready!

I must admit that Safiya had a very clear vision from the beginning on the colours for her wedding and I think you will agree that they came through in everything from the invitations, to the wedding program's, the flowers, dresses - even the boys limo was lit up with Burnt Oranges, plus we were even able to choose the glow of colour in the Reception Hall to light up the walls and ceilings!

What was also fun was that Casio had connections all over Montreal, from his God Mother performing the ceremony, making it very special to a friend of his mothers making the Cake, and even close friends in control of the Music & MC!

When planning your wedding it is always nice to think where the talents are in your family and who can help make it special - but equally it is just as good to think twice before asking your friends or family to do critical parts of your wedding. What would happen if something didn't quite meet your expectations would it potentially ruin a longstanding relationship - so more often than not I would say 'leave it to the experts'!

It really was a unique day and we bought in many cultural elements from Jumping the Broom to African Dancers and I think the guests were amazed at what can only be described as a 'Canadian' way of Opening the Bar!!
