Calling all modern grooms looking for a wedding tuxedo or suit with a little more sleek, slim, hipster sensibility than the norm. Take a look at the new Wedding Shop from Canadian menswear company Modasuite! This just-launched formal wear collection adds to their existing selection of made-to-measure items, built to your measurements, with high quality materials, in a simple online process. Very cool. The pieces strive to be timeless as well as youthful in spirit, and are said to be inspired by the streets of London and British rock and roll. According to Modasuite’s Creative Director, This capsule collection was created with the modern gentleman in mind one that respects authenticity, craftsmanship and desires something that is elegant, yet different. If that sounds like you or your man, take a look! They plan to begin shipping to the US next week.
I’m loving these creative engagement photos of couple Hannah and Mike taken at Vancouver BC’s legendary live music venue, the Vogue Theatre. Photographers Jakob and Cole of Nordica Photography used such a creative approach, and all the theater’s nooks and crannies provided many unique backdrops for the shoot. What a personality filled location – newly engaged music lovers out there, take note!
What three adjectives best describe your wedding?Timeless, unique, organic
What inspired your personal wedding style, and how were your personalities incorporated into your big day?Once I was engaged I began searching through tons and tons of magazines to see what my style would be. I already knew I wanted my colors to be purple and green. I never thought I would have a winter wedding, and I have never wanted a white palette, I went with colors that could pop but also not be too bright for the winter. I immediately fell in love with the idea of branches for centerpieces. I wanted them to bring nature in but also keep the classy, timeless feel, so I used vases filled with white sand to hold them. And the moss around the bottom came to me easily since it was one of my wedding colors! We also incorporated our style by making our own guest book. Matthew’s dad made it out of two pieces of aspen wood. He inserted scrapbook paper so guests could glue their photo booth photos into it and write a message. Matthew, being an amazing artist and tattoo artist, painted the front, back and inside covers of the guest book with a tree and our favorite bible verse.
Looking back, what are the moments, decisions, or memories that you love the most about your wedding?The biggest moment of the day for me was walking up the stairs and locking eyes with my groom. I immediately started crying (which I swore wouldnt happen) while my dad, who was walking me, was cluelessly chatting about who was there and how everyone looked. He pointed out that Matthew was crying and then asked if I had a cold because of my sniffing. He finally turned and realized I was sniffing to keep the tears in! Another memory we will always have are the speeches that were given, and how welcoming both fathers were of their new children-in-law. I loved that I got to smush just the perfect amount of cake into Matthew’s face and that he did not get any on mine. Walking into the reception and seeing how beautifully it all turned out, and seeing all our family members and long lost friends coming to show their support was indescribable. I loved absolutely everything about my wedding, and would not change a thing.
