Golden Dinosaurs | The Simpsons


Emily & Bill

“Dinosaurs are the best, so just calm down.”

Emily and Bill’s Georgina ROC Chalet wedding had very elegant decor with a “light sprinkling” of golden dinosaurs (yes, golden dinosaurs), and was accented with elements from The Simpsons. Most of the guests were wondering “What’s up with the golden dinosaurs?” and they all had to wait for the bride and groom’s speech to find out the answer – the answer was the quote above 😉

How They Met

Originally, Emily and Bill met on the internet. When they met in-person, they actually met outside a subway station in Toronto (because Emily was running late. ha). On their first date, they went to a pub, and they talked for hours. Bill got tipsy and was a super gentleman and insisted on escorting Emily home on the subway, bus, then subway, then to her car. Then, Emily drove him home because she was sober. They dated for 18 months before getting engaged!

The Proposal

Bill woke Emily up before my night-shift with coffee and a ring, and asked “So… you wanna get hitched?” Apparently this was a great way to wake up, because Emily said yes!

The Wedding


As I mentioned earlier, there were elements of The Simpsons TV show here and there. (The golden dinosaurs I’ll get into more when I get to the Reception part of the blog.) One of those was Bill’s cufflinks – which are replicas of the cufflinks from the Simpsons episode of Lisa’s wedding!

The Newlyweds!


Emily and Bill did a First Look (most people will tap the groom on the shoulder or poke them or something, Emily went with the always popular, ass-grab.), and all their bride & groom photos before the ceremony, so they could mingle with guests right after the ceremony.

The Ceremony


The ceremony was held indoors, because despite it being September, it was crazy hot outside! (It was something like 32*C)

Someone (not Emily), added to the golden dinosaur cake toppers, by dressing them with a tiny bouquet, and floral bow-tie!

The first dance was done in the same area as the ceremony, but the arch was moved away.

Congrats Emily & Bill!! I never thought about it until afterwards, but I left before you guys brought out the pinatas! D’oh!

Sutton Wedding Photographer | Rosie’s Place


Lily & Ahmad

It’s not too often you marry the same person twice, but that’s exactly what Lily and Ahmad did! Lily got a teaching job in Vietnam, and to get the paperwork done in time, they legally got married in February. Then they had their wedding in July, at Sutton’s newest wedding venue, Rosie’s Place! I was honoured to be their Sutton wedding photographer for their big celebration!

How They Met

In the very beginning, Ahmad and Lily met in high school. Ahmad was friends with Lily’s twin brother, Chris. Chris and Lily went to separate high schools, so Lily met Ahmad when he came over to visit Chris.

Flash forward to when they were in university: Lily came home from spending a summer studying in Venice, Italy. Ahmad was working at the local Petro-Can gas station. Ahmad ran into Lily’s family there, who told him about her travels. He texted her asking about the trip, and they started “seeing each other” that summer. By the end of the summer, they were officially a couple. Five years later, they were married!

The Wedding

Getting Ready

Lily and Ahmad actually got ready together for their wedding! They thought it would be easier, plus technically, they were already married anyway 😉

The Ceremony & Reception

The wedding ceremony and reception were held at Rosie’s Place. The ceremony was outdoors, and the reception was held the beautiful barn filled with authentic antique decor! Lifestyles Catering served mouth-watering foods from all around the globe – which was fitting since Lily is such a world-traveller!

Since Lily and Ahmad were already married, they didn’t need an officiant. Instead, their wedding party took turns reading lines from the original ceremony.

The Wedding Party

Another unique wedding element, was their almost-entirely male wedding party! The guys on the bride’s side wore shades of warm colours (yellow, orange, red, pink, etc.), and the guys on the groom’s side wore cool colours (green, purple, blue). Malini was not only the Maid of Honour (and only female attendant), but she was deemed by several people (including herself) as “the best person at the wedding”. Malini – you are awesome! (I know her response would be “I know.” haha.)

The Newlyweds!

We literally just walked all over the property and took photos – Rosie’s Place has tons of great photo spots!

Emily & Bill’s Sneak Peeks

Emily and Bill held their ROC wedding on an unusually blazing hot day at the end of September. It was somewhere around 35*C! Besides the unusual heat, everything went absolutely perfectly!

Emily and Bill had very elegant decor with a “light sprinkling” of golden dinosaurs – yes, golden dinosaurs. A lot of people were asking “What’s up with the golden dinosaurs?” and they all had to wait for the bride and groom’s speech to find out the answer. I believe Emily’s exact words were “Dinosaurs are the best, so just calm down.” hahaha!

Lily & Ahmad’s Sneak Peeks

Today I get to share with you some of Lily and Ahmad’s Sutton wedding photos! Lily and Ahmad have a unique wedding story, in that they got married to each other twice this year!

Lily got a teaching job in Vietnam, and when they found how long it would take to get their marriage license after they got married, they had to get legally married a bit earlier than they planned, just so all the paperwork would be ready before they left for Vietnam.

They had their big wedding celebration just last week, at Lily’s parents’ place! Their “Auction barn” was turned into a beautiful wedding venue for Lily and Ahmad! They also had a ton of DIY aspects of their wedding that a lot of people worked very hard on, but I will talk about that in a future blog post 😉

My daughter noticed that in the photo below (top left), that the wind blew Lily’s hair into a heart-shape!

Georgina Wedding Photographer | Georgina Pioneer Village Wedding


Melissa & Dan’s Sneak Peeks


Melissa and Dan had their beautiful fall wedding at the Georgina Pioneer Village. The Georgina Pioneer Village is a great (and unique!) venue, because all the old buildings make a pretty awesome background for photos (and just walking around generally!).

Here are a few photos from their wonderful wedding day!
