Rob and Lisa's Wedding: September 8

Except for Rob getting ready at home, Robert and Lisa had everything else-- the ceremony, cocktails, photos and reception-- at the magnificient Saint Suplice hotel in Old Montreal.



For getting ready, Lisa chose a room where she could watch the hotel staff prepare the hotel patio for the outdoor ceremony.





First kiss as man and wife.

Congratulation Lisa and Robert! You two are completely adorable, and it really was the lovliest wedding.

Sylvie and Peter's Wedding: August 18

Peter and Sylvie currently live in Iqualuit, Nunavuit, where Peter is an RCMP officer and Sylvie is a nurse. While a long way from home, their hearts are definitely in Quebec. Sylvie grew up in Quebec City, while Peter was raised in Montreal's Greek area, Park Extension.



Peter and Sylvie were married at the Eglise Koimisis Tis Theotokou, where some of the ladies who live across the street keep a pretty close eye on what's going on at the church.


The reception was at the Lowes Hotel Vogue in downtown Montreal.

Weddings at the Loews are overseen by Helene Gaston Khoury, who makes sure everything from the waitors white gloves to the angle of the Calla lillies on the head table are... just... perfect.

Despite being such a perfectionist, Helene is a wonderfully warm person who takes personal interest in each and every wedding she organises. She can be reached at (514) 849-9818.





Congratulations Peter and Sylvie! I LOVED the ceremony at the Greek church (my first Greek Orthadox wedding!), and really enjoyed sharing your day with you.
