Ottawa Wedding Scene and Heard
Jan 16, 2012 – 2nd Perth Winter Bridal Show a Huge Success! 
On Sunday, January 15, I was honored to be the guest speaker for the 2nd Perth Winter Bridal Show organized by Erinne Horne (Whosyourplanner).
Jan 10, 2012 – Westin Hotel Can Host Big and Small Weddings

Jan 6, 2012 – Brrr Wedding – An Outdoor Ceremony in -20C Weather 
A winter outdoor wedding can be very romantic. You can image being in a wooded area with fluffy snow on the trees painting a picturesque scene. The warmth of the couple exchanging their wedding vows would hearten the guests in attendance. Yes all this is true including the -20C bitter cold temperature that can accompany the day.
