A couple weeks ago Ami de Co{u}r Event Design had the privilege of being a part of a Simon & Renee's fabulous wedding ceremony and vintage themed cocktail party at the Eagles Hall in Abbotsford B.C. The family began the celebrations with a photoshoot at Ann Marie's Cafe, a little 50's diner in downtown Abbotsford, followed by a pre-ceremony dinner. I think this is a perfect way to shake out the jitters and spend some memorable quality time before becoming Mr & Mrs.
These two lovebirds had been courting from across the great pond (Simon is from Britain) for several months before deciding to have their first ceremony in Canada. Renee and her youngest son will be moving overseas in the new year and then the happy couple are set to have a second ceremony with Simon's side of the family in August. Two weddings and the second is scheduled to be in a castle! What more could a gal ask for?!
The Hall was decorated with Christmas ornaments in champagne tones mixed with vintage furniture from Trove Vintage to create a cozy vintage family room atmosphere. Several of Renee's personal items were used to add to the intimate family setting. My favorite touch was a framed photo of Renee's late father placed on the bookshelf at the alter. Renee walked down the aisle to Etta James' At Last sung by her dear friend Melanie and as the happy couple returned down the aisle they were given a champagne toast by their guests. The whole evening was filled with special moments and was truely amazing.
