From As You Wish Weddings…Charles contacted us last Spring to help plan a beautiful surprise proposal for his love Ruby. Charles had rented out a space in the Corus Entertainment building in Toronto, situated on the city’s waterfront with views that overlook Lake Ontario. Charles wanted to put together something simple but meaningful as they are a low key couple who consider dinner at home over wine to be one of their favourite ways to spend time together. Collaborating with some of Toronto’s top vendors we put together a stunning setup complete with a custom balloon installation from Sugargirlee & Co, heart shaped cookies engraved with the couple’s names by Cakelaine, chocolate covered strawberries by Edible Arrangements and gorgeous gold sequin linens by KJ & Co. To create an atmosphere of romance, we lined the windows with lots of candles, and pictures of the couple and their beautiful son, Israel. Charles, cleverly disguising the proposal as a tour of the entertainment centre, lead Ruby into the room where she was equally shocked and amazed by what was happening. The talented Simply Lace Photography and AM Motions were there to capture the moment the bride-to-be said “Yes!”, followed by the happy couple celebrating with champagne and dancing to their favourite song, Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud”.
