Sarah Houston Launches Her First Canadian Store


Video by James Frodyma with music by Ravishers

On March 3, 2011 my colleague, wedding planner Erin Bosak of Exquisite Affairs and I had the immense honor of attending the ultra-exclusive launch party of Sarah Houston's new flagship store.

If you don't know Sarah, she is an internationally renowned wedding gown designer who is based right here in Canada. Sarah is known for creating each gown with the highest quality of silks. Her gowns each have their own unique personality. Formally I had only viewed photographs of her collections. I can honestly say that not only are her gowns more beautiful in person; but for the first time in my life I walked into a bridal salon and literally fell in love with almost every dress. 

Sarah Houston Couture Bridal is located at 24 Hazelton Avenue in the Yorkville area of Toronto. Appointments can be made by calling 416.921.8882

Get Married 40 Feet Underwater


An example of an Underwater Wedding - Crystal Bay, Bali

You've seen the video's on Youtube; but does the idea of having your own underwater wedding sound to difficult to coordinate? Not anymore thanks to the Presidente InterContinental Cozumel Resort & Spa.

Scuba certified brides and grooms at the resort can now "take the plunge" 40 feet underwater with their new scuba wedding package. The ceremony takes place in the worlds second largest coral reef. The package includes ceremony, photography, scuba gear, the brides bouquet, a bottle of champagne, and a romantic dinner for two at the upscale Alfredo Di Roma Restaurant. It's the perfect mixture of romance and adventure.

If you're a couple who loves the beauty of marine life and you're looking for something a bit different this could be the perfect wedding package for you.
