oh, what a night!
How to describe our 25th anniversary party last night at the Windsor Arms?! AMAZING! Everyone had such a fabulous time from our gorgeous flowers from Flour Studio to our 25 displayed cakes (provided by Bonnie Gordon Students and Alumni Members) to our amazing candy table (styled by Catherine Doherty and provided by The Candy Store in Ottawa, Food Trends, The Designer Cookie and Churchill’s Fine Gourmet Gifts), which vanished in seconds, everything looked romantic and perfect–or as our friend Shinan Govani from the National Post described on Twitter–it was goop-y. Speaking of Twitter, for those of you who missed out on following us. Here’s a snapshot of some of the fabulous peeps that we tweeted about.
Canada’s first supermodel Monika Schnarre (pictured above) stopped by in a gorgeous red dress by Fashion Crimes. I spoke to owner of Fashion Crimes, Pam Chorley (she was super-nice btw and had an amazing sequence dress herself), and she mentioned that she actually dressed Monika 10 years ago in another pretty dress–glad those two were reconnected. Pam mentioned her and Monika will be getting together in the future to put together another fabulous frock (can’t wait to see!).
Rick Campanelli (host of ET Canada) stopped by with his fiancee Angie. The two were so cute and kicked the romance up a notch by sharing a cookie (from The Designer Cookie) off our sweets table.
One of our previous cover girls Tara Spencer-Nairn was there with her husband Josh Glover. In this picture, Stephanie was conducting interviews the whole night with some amazing peeps from the industry (keep an eye out for that!).
Want to see more pics?! We had an amazing photo booth set up by Claudia Hung Weddings. Check back in a few days to see everyone from the party do their best supermodel poses!

Timeless Beauty
Photography Ishi. Featured in Weddingbells Spring & Summer 2010.
In this month’s 25th Anniversary online feature we looked at 25 of our favourite websites for beauty inspiration, shopping and advice. When it comes to your wedding day look, your hair and makeup really pull everything together. While the dress is clearly a #1 priority, ignoring the rest of your look can’t throw it all off – just think about celebs on the red carpet who are wearing a gorgeous gown, but have a horrendous hair do. What does everyone notice? Exactly. Read the rest of this entry »

Weddingbells’ Fabulous Photoshoots
Photo by Josh Cornell from the Fall & Winter 2008 issue of Weddingbells.
Over the past 25 years, Weddingbells has traveled the globe in the name of fashion to shoot beautiful gowns against a beautiful backdrop. Italy, Arizona, Barbados, Bermuda are just a few of the places we’ve been, but I’d have to say one of my favourite shoot locales was very close to home—Collingwood, Ontario, located just a two-hour drive from Toronto.
