OWNER

Claudia is a certified wedding planner through WPIC & Gay Wedding Institute

With over 15 years of experience working in events at various luxury brand hotels, she brings a strong sense of operational knowledge on weddings and catered events. Working in the hospitality industry has provided her with a unique flair for communication and a keen eye for detail. She has established strong relationships with many hotels and vendor partners in Toronto and she truly values her relationships with both her clients and vendors.

She enjoys shopping at Sephora (it might be considered an addiction actually), browsing the Kate Spade website (with a credit card within arms reach naturally) and spending time with her handsome fiance James.

She can be often found scrolling Instagram looking for new trends and ideas while sipping Passion Iced Tea Lemonade from Starbucks or a Steeped Tea from Tim Hortons.

SENIOR LEAD PLANNER

Growing up in the UK, Vicky had dreamed about having a traditional wedding: the stunning white dress, lots of flowers, all her family and friends. The wedding she ended up having was very different, but it also showed her that dream weddings come in all shapes and sizes.

Vicky and Neil got engaged on their first anniversary of being together. While they thought of starting their wedding plans, life kept taking them on different turns. They were saving to take a trip to Canada and were working on getting their permanent residency approved. About a year after they had gotten engaged, they visited Toronto to spend more time in their future home.

They should have been deep in the throws of wedding planning by now, but it just didn’t feel right. Neil had lost his dad that year, Vicky had lost a dear friend, and wedding planning just wasn’t on their minds.

Out for dinner for their anniversary, Vicky asked Neil, “What are we waiting for? Life is just too short. Why don’t we get married while we’re in Toronto?”

Vicky and Neil were married six and half weeks later at the Fallsview Marriott Hotel in Niagara Falls. Vicky wore red – far from the traditional white gown she had grown up dreaming about. But that didn’t matter.

Was it the dream wedding Vicky had thought she would have? No. But was it perfect for her and Neil at that time in their lives? Yes!

This is why Vicky does what she does – your dream wedding is as unique as you and your partner. If you want memories that last a lifetime, Vicky is here to help.
