2020 Georgian Bay Wedding Guide 10th Anniversary Issue | Page 119

We both tackled the planning together. Anthony loved being
part of every aspect of planning. We wanted a fun wedding,
to enjoy ourselves and to make sure our guests felt welcome.
Food, drinks and music was where we wanted to put a lot of
our attention. We chose a great caterer and had friends come
to tend the bar. We had Anthony’s brother to perform the
ceremony and had my brother and his wife to sing our first
dance song. We knew we wanted to include family in the
ceremony & wedding as much as possible.
The day before the wedding was all hands-on deck. Having
a wedding on a private family farm meant we had to have
everything brought in. We had been building and preparing
for the wedding for months, including building our own bar,
podium, back drop for the head table. We were excited to
see it all come together.
The day flew by, trying to take in as much of it as possible. We
always made sure to touch base with each other through-
out the reception and really enjoyed celebrating with all our
friends & family. We had an amazing day of coordinator who
took on any stresses or issues that may have come up during
the day. She kept us on schedule and ensured we were
savoring every moment.
Our favourite part of the day was without a doubt the cere-
mony. The ceremony was surreal, it was nothing like I had
imagined. I was quite nervous to stand in front of everyone,
but once we were there together it was the most comfortable
and easiest thing I’ve ever done. The ceremony was causal
enough for us to share laughs but also filled with so much
love we were just bursting with happiness. •
