For this Toronto area wedding, we happily logged quite a few miles for Vanessa and Michael’s special day. It all began with video coverage of Vanessa and her bridesmaids getting ready at the regal One King West Hotel at King & Yonge in downtown Toronto. Meanwhile, our second videographer was filming with Michael, who was getting ready with his groomsmen near Bloor Village. Once the bride and groom and their wedding party were ready and dressed in their respective locations, everyone headed for Mississauga. Michael and Vanessa’s wedding ceremony at Cristo Rei Church was simply beautiful! Then we packed our video gear and headed back into the city to the University of Toronto. Shortly after, the bride and groom arrived and we did a creative video session with them at Knox College, a stunning venue for both wedding videography and photography. Last stop, The Grand Luxe in North York for the wedding reception. When we walked in and saw the hall, our jaws dropped! The decor was amazing, dark purple and unique centerpieces as you’ll see in their Highlights video. The evening was amazing, even including the very cool artistry of an aerialist and a first for us, a performance by the talented and gutsy Grand Luxe bartenders who set their 30-foot long bar and a pyramid of glasses on fire! Congratulations Vanessa & Michael on your marriage and an incredibly memorable wedding day!
