Wedding Date on Jun 29, 2019

This wedding was special. A big melting pot of culture, love, and honour of family. Matt & Christina’s Guild Inn Estate and Casa Loma Wedding included all our favourite things. Two of the most incredible Toronto Wedding venues, drop-dead gorgeous decor, an awesome dance party and heartfelt vows between two people in love. Oh, and did we mention the castle? Matt and Christina’s multicultural wedding weekend had many fun contemporary touches blended with a respect for tradition. Their Hindu ceremony was held at the Guild Inn Estate, perched on top of cliffs overlooking Lake Ontario. I remember the first time we flew our drone up over the venue, being blown away at how gorgeous a location is really is. Matt and Christina described the Guild Inn as the perfect fit for them. They really wanted an outdoor ceremony but were apprehensive due to the risk of rain. The gazebo gave them the best of both worlds. The Guild Inn was also one of the few venues that allowed the use of an open fire which was essential for their Hindu ceremony. They also loved all the greenery and greek-style ruins that provided a great place to take photos afterwards without having to go offsite. In true Matt and Christina fashion, the character of the venue and the tradition of the Hindu ceremony was delicately balanced with the modern grace and beauty of them as a couple. The following day a Western vow exchange was held at Casa Loma; a beautiful castle in the middle of Toronto. The conservatory is so rich with ornate architecture, including marble floors and walls. It’s a wonderful feeling to be in a room flooded with soft, natural light whilst being surrounded by an abundance of greenery. Their beautiful ceremony was followed and a massive party under the stars starting off with cocktails on the lawn. Christina’s brother serenaded their guests before everyone moved into the tent. Don’t you love that decor by Soiree Luxury Weddings & Event Decor? Oh, and that Lion Dance by Chung’s Martial Arts/Sifu Chung was a joy to see. Christina’s parents are Indian and Chinese, so that was an important cultural element for them to include. Speaking of parents, how good were those speeches? We love getting another perspective of a couple from the people who know them best. Matt and Christina commented that some of their most memorable moments of the entire weekend were “The amazing music, dancing with our friends and family, hitting the outdoor bar, photobooth antics, and late night gelato and the Lion dance! ” We couldn’t agree more. Their weekend was absolutely one to remember.
