Fantasy Farm wedding Archives | Olive Photography

This wedding had so many guests from out of town – it’s amazing how love brings people together. And to honour their Irish family background Samantha & Darren had many green touches (my favourite colour!… ‘Olive Photography’ – could you tell?) at their Fantasy Farm wedding. For instance, Samantha wore gorgeous emerald earrings, super cute green shoes, and had lovely green brooches in her bouquet – along with many other little touches throughout their wedding. What a neat idea to infuse culturally-significant colour into your wedding palate, eh? Definitely some great inspiration in here if you’re planning a wedding! (The greenery all over Todmorden Mills also added to the theme!)

They also personalized their wedding in the sweetest way by infusing little greyhound accents in adorable unexpected places like the favours, cake topper and signing tree painting. This is because they are parents to a greyhound named Froggy whom they love so much.

Enjoy!

And congratulations again, you two. Such a pleasure being your photographer.

Winter Fantasy Farm Wedding

Celso & Eini’s wedding was so lovely and full of happiness! The atmosphere was incredibly full of love from everyone, and many happy tears were shed. My heart felt so full that day.

Their wedding took place on the second day of Spring – although Mother Nature had other plans… it was chilly! But we barely felt it with all the love and happiness warming us up.
Eini was proactive and got her bridesmaids glamorous white furry stoles and adorable fuzzy earmuffs and mittens to keep them warm.

She made the bouquets and boutonnieres herself, and the *incredible* cakes were made by her bakery – I’ve never seen such fabulous cakes.

She did a first look with both her hubby to be and her parents, and they were all so sweet!

The ceremony & reception were both held at Toronto’s Fantasy Farm and it was a such a lovely intimate affair.

Warmest congratulations, guys!! It was an honour capturing your beautiful love!

P.S. Here are some thoughts from the newlyweds about their big day:

What was your favourite wedding moment?

Bride: My favourite moment were the speeches – hands down!

Groom: Preparing for the “first look” moment – you can’t quite appreciate the feeling unless you experience it for yourself.

Any advice for engaged couples planning their wedding?

Bride: Have fun with the planning process. We had 2 months to plan everything, keep it simple and manage your expectations. Any aspect that stresses you out, delegate for someone else to do if you can 🙂

Groom: Do not allow the process to stress you out. Identify your absolute must-have’s and focus on those…good taste doesn’t have to cost a small fortune.

Any final thoughts about the big day/experience of getting married that you’d like to share?

Bride: Not everything will go as planned or on schedule. Just go with the flow and enjoy your wedding day to the fullest, because your guests will never know 😉 Take in each moment and make the day last!

Groom: Take some time to relax the morning of the wedding – it’s important to calm yourself (yet remain excited for your big day).
