Venetian Elegance was more than just a wedding theme for Stefania and David. David proposed at the Venetian in Las Vegas. The two of them so loved the resorts richness of golds and classic whites that they decided to have the same regal and classy look when they married. They also carried the look through the reception with touches of Venetian luxury. Ladies at their reception were gifted with a Maschera del Galeone Venetian Masks from Venice while the gentlemen received a bottle of Jack Daniels whisky.

they knew they would get married one day

David + Stefania met in high school but it wasn’t until after school that they began to talk and see one another. During the first couple of months they both knew this was and that they would eventually get married. They dated for 7 years before David surprised Stefania with the proposal in Las Vegas on a gondola at the Venetian. After Stefania said ‘yes’ they had a few days of celebration with family and friends in Vegas.

a ceremony of deep religious meaning

The wedding planning for all of the Venetian Elegance started in Vegas when Stefania’s sister made a list of everything to do once they were back in Vancouver. The ceremony was unique and beautiful being held at the Our Lady of the Assumption Church in Vancouver. White orchids were everywhere as Stefania and her bridesmaids walked down the aisle. The ring bearer was adorable and the groom and his groomsmen were handsome in their custom suits. Afterwards, guests luxuriated in the food and laughter at the Vancouver Club reception. A stunning tiered cake with gilt gold edges was covered in blush and merlot roses and served to guests later in the evening.

As Stefania says. “It was the wedding I had always dreamed about becoming a reality. We were fortunate to have all the small and big things we wanted be a part of our big day, from the flowers to the custom made dress it was truly perfect. Our wedding was definitely the best day of my life, as cliche as that sounds I wouldn’t change one thing. All our vendors went above and beyond to truly bring our vision to life and we will be forever thankful to everyone who made this experience and our day perfect!”

Stunning Silk Sophistication + White Orchids for Kayseen & Stevan

Silk Sophistication and a ballroom full of white orchids made for a stunning look at Kayseen and Stevan’s Vancouver wedding. The ceremony showcased a beautiful Greek Orthodox Vancouver church where family and friends witnessed the union’s blessings.

Orchids and roses were the floral theme of the day as they graced the bouquets and reception tables. The orchid ‘umbrella’ over the head table is extraordinary! The neutral tones of the linens and décor add to the importance of the floral design. We especially love the cake with barely there gold touches. The details at this wedding are what make it – silk and satin, gorgeous gown and jewellery plus a groom who looks utter perfect in his bowtie. And those photos of the newlyweds at the bar with the bride’s veil swirling around her – too perfect!

While it is true that this wedding is over the top gorgeous the highlight is the utter joy and happiness on the faces of friends and family. Wandering down the streets of Vancouver carrying flags garners some serious points too!
