The
Toronto area wedding community is home to some of the industry's
most fabulous and trend setting wedding experts in all of
Canada. There are options for every style, size and budget of
wedding. That leaves brides wondering how and where to start.
Where do you find the perfect gown? Where can you afford to host
your 250 guests? How can you have an intimate wedding for
seventy-five guests in a big city?
If you're
tying the knot in a Southwestern Ontario town
like K-W or London Ontario, you've probably
heard of The Wedding Ring. With
over 3.9M pages views per year*,
odds are
that if you haven't personally achieved
'addicted to The Ring' status, you know a bride
who has... And that's because The Ring is
dedicated to serving and uniting brides by
delivering planning resources they can't find
anywhere else,
ultimately
changing
the way Canadian brides plan weddings, one city
a time.
One
of The Wedding Ring's 2009 resolutions was to interview,
research, review and report on on everything a Greater Toronto
Area bride needs to know to plan her wedding - to change the way
Toronto brides plan weddings.
(And by 'change', we mean 'pitch-all-the-to-do-lists-because-we've-just-done-all-research-for-you'.)
And
to achieve this goal, we knew we'd need some help... So we
started at the top.
The
Top 25 Founding Experts of The Toronto Wedding Ring
are among the first to be hand selected for their contribution
to the wedding community. These twenty-five companies will be
helping The Ring build a community of brides, expertise and
wedding style. They represent dedication to the art of designing
gorgeous, memorable wedding days for the many brides who come
through their doors - and now, they are founding the GTA area of
The Ring. Within this Top 25, you'll find award winners and
artists, fresh new options and long-time, experienced
professionals.
Ku'r
Salon and Spa's goal is to make sure you're feeling and
looking fabulous on the morning of your wedding day. This
Doon South Drive spa is a one-stop shop for all of your
beauty needs from head to toe. Taline Kazazian and Katrina
Byrne, Owners of Ku'r, and their team of expert stylists and
aestheticians...

Surrounded
by rolling hills, ponds and trees, Rebel Creek Golf Club
gives the secluded feeling of a destination wedding
location, just a few minutes from town. Rebel Creek is where
a bride and groom come if they're dreaming of wedding
details such as waterside photos, a cocktail hour held on a
gorgeous field stone and wrought-iron patio, or a reception
in an incredible banquet facility with vaulted ceilings and
a view to fall...

Your choice of photo styles
Toronto vendor reviews
Bravo
Photographers is a Toronto-based studio that's focused on
preserving wedding memories in a style that's all their own.
Owner and Photographer, Jonathon Ceci, says the studio is
best known for their new style of fine art photojournalism.
"We take a documentary approach to the day," he explained.
Bravo considers their style to be timeless, to break away
from trends and standards. So with this fresh, dramatic,
documentary-style approach to wedding photography - not to
mention nicely customizable wedding packages - staff at The
Ring think Bravo will be meeting more than their fair share
of Toronto...

Staff
at The Ring liked officiant, Paul Knauer, right away. We
liked him because of who he is as much as what he does for
local engaged couples. He has made it his personal journey
to play a large supporting role in as many of life's
defining moments as he can, including your wedding ceremony.
Paul is a non-denominational minister, a retired teacher and

Through his
professional disc jockey services company, A & M Sounds, Adrian
Peters has become a familiar face at community and charity
events as well as at about ninety London area weddings each
year. Adrian provides the sound for all sizes of events, not
because it's his job, but because it's his passion. "We strive
to set ourselves apart from the rest," he explains to couples

control the mood of your guest list for about six hours!...
