Evergreen Brickworks Proposal | Abid & Safiah

Abid and Safiah have been together for 6 years and they’ve decided on forever ❤️

He planned sunrise proposal with a beautiful view at Evergreen Brickworks in Toronto’s East End.
We met while the sun was still not out, and made the trek to the spot where he set up the items for the big moment.

He chose sunrise to help avoid the crowds because of Covid, and of course to have that special moment be private.

That morning he snuck out of bed extra early – he said he felt like he was tiptoeing past a sleeping dragon – had to be extra quiet! ha

When it was time, Safiah’s sister (who slept over that night) led the way to the surprise location where Abid had a speaker softly playing music, a heartfelt letter for her to read, and a scrabble board with the question – and possible answers – laid out. (Yes, No, or Hell No!) This was a reference to how he first told her he loves her through Scrabble years ago. So sweet.

He even brought a broom in case he had to sweep up some mess, and press-on nails because he knew Safiah hadn’t gotten a manicure during the pandemic and she may want to spruce up her nails for the photos. She didn’t end up using them, but how gosh-darned thoughtful!

As Safiah walked towards Abid you could feel the excitement and love from them both. Safiah cried happy tears and Abid had a smile from ear to ear. So much love.

He got down on one knee with the skyline view still twinkling as the sun hadn’t fully risen yet. It was really lovely. And of course, she said yes!

It was a privilege to photograph this momentous occasion for you both!
Congratulations again on your engagement Abid & Safiah!

Hotel X Toronto Proposal | Toronto Proposal Ideas | Neysha & Lucky

Lucky wanted to bring tropical vibes to his Toronto proposal for the love of his life Neysha.
He also wanted to incorporate Toronto somehow, while also being weather proof.
He enlisted the help of Toronto wedding planner Carmen Luk of Devoted to You, and they decided Hotel X was the perfect location for the occasion since it has a rentable private multi-purpose room that has a gorgeous Toronto skyline view!
The room is tucked away behind a restaurant – totally unexpected and private. (Could even be rented for private dinners with the stunning view! How cool is that??)

Together with the help of Denovo Floral they put together a jaw-dropping scene that surprised Neysha when she thought she was going to a simple dinner that evening. The decor featured a unique swing centrepiece where the ring awaited Neysha as she walked into the room, and following the Big Question a little decorated table with bubbly awaited them to celebrate. So many thoughtful touches!

Lucky went the extra mile and even arranged to have some of Neysha’s closest local loved ones be there as part of the occasion. The emotions on their face were priceless – from giddiness and glee to emotional tears, I loved every moment of photographing this special time!

Hotel X was such a perfect location for this proposal! It has it all: an unobstructed skyline view, even more views of Toronto’s waterfront, gorgeous light from the floor to ceiling windows, interesting spots for photos at the hotel, AND a park with green space and waterfront just across the street for more portraits for after the proposal.

It was so much fun to be a part of this special occasion!
All the best to these lovebirds in their life together!!
