Today we share with you, Harvey and Shilpa’s engagement session held in Old Montreal.

Harvey & Shilpa had a Bollywood style wedding in Ottawa, but ended up in Montreal to shoot their engagement, since they are frequent visitors there and just love the city. Hadhazy Photography had quite a fun to go around and blend in with the locals there.

“I loved to see their passion for each other, which came through the photos as well. They had three different outfits each was representing their personality.” – Eva Hadhazy, owner of Hadhazy Photography

Today, Monday Decemeber 5, 2011, we share with you Elizabeth and Nicolas’ Wedding shot by Coco Films Studios.

“So what makes your wedding day? Is it the dress? The flowers? The ceremony? How about all of the above. Throw in a beautiful sky, sprinkling water and an ecstatic little kid wetting herself and you have the makings of beautiful wedding video. Details, details, and more details. That’s what life is about and that is what we try to capture when filming one of the most transformational day’s in your life.” Coco Films Studio

One of my most memorable weddings this year was Anu and Sebreena’s wedding.  It was not only the joining of 2 people but 2 religions (Hindu and Ismaili).  From the moment I spoke to Sebreena on the phone I knew she would be a wonderful person to work with.   From the moment we all met we all hit it off – it was just so comfortable working with the both of them.  They explained all the Ismaili traditions to me by sending me detailed emails and sending me YouTube videos.  It was our first Ismaili wedding so we wanted to make sure everything was perfect and that every cultural aspect of the wedding was followed flawlessly.

The Wedding was a beautiful Ismaili wedding at the wonderful Royal King Palace.  Everything went as scheduled.  Sebreena looked amazing wearing a rhinestone encrusted white sari – absolutely breathtaking.  Once the ceremony was over guests went out into the foyer and enjoyed Sherbet and Appetizers as the A & F Team shut the doors behind them and turned the wedding venue into a reception venue.

The turnaround time between turning ½ the hall from a wedding venue to a reception venue was less than 2 hours but; with the help of staff at Royal King Palace and the décor team from Art of the Wedding we made it happen.  We turned everything around, added all the extra tables, and decorated in record time to turn the place into a fabulous reception venue – just as Anu and Sebreena wanted.

Everything at the reception went off without a hitch – the venue was amazing – the atmosphere was oodles and oodles of romance.  From the ceremony to the food, from the décor to the dancing it was picture perfect.  Both families were such a pleasure to work with – they enjoyed themselves to the fullest.  Anu and Sebreena were extremely happy – it was such a pleasure working with them on this special day and we are so thankful they chose us to be there Wedding Planners.  We only wish Anu and Sebreena a lifetime of romance and happiness.
