Last weekend marked the very first Wedluxe Wedding Show in Toronto and I have to say… it was a SMASHING SUCCESS! Nearly 2000 people attended this extraordinary show in an 8 hour period at the Ritz-Carlton Toronto. The toasted and fierce vendors showcased awe-inspiring booths to wow the newly engaged and industry alike. It was over-the-top, wow-factor, must-see at it’s very best! If you missed out this year – make sure you attend in 2013! You won’t be disappointed!

A Toronto Vendor dream team came together a few weeks ago to create a gorgeous creative for Style Me Pretty

Concept Design & Styling: Cynthia Martyn Events Inc. / Photography: Rebecca Wood Photography / Floral Design: Stemz / Stationery: Love The Design / Hair & Makeup: Faces By Carla / Dress: Saja Wedding via Sash & Bustle Boutique / Hair Flowers: Handle & Spout / Table Props: Cynthia Martyn Events Inc. & Stemz / Furnishings: Rentals via Chairman Mills / Cake The Caketress

This is what The Caketress had to say about it:

One of my favourite parts of working in the wedding industry is meeting other creative and talented people. Each wedding the vendors are almost like a family of creative minds working together to create the couples dream day. I enjoy working with wedding planners, floral designers, stationary designers and any other creative mind in the wedding planning process. Often their work is incorporated into the cake design because what they do is also so inspiring.

A couple of weeks ago Cynthia Martyn contacted me to design a cake for her wedding inspiration shoot to be showcased on the queen of all bridal blogs, Style me Pretty. I was thrilled for many reasons for this project , one of which was who was capturing the photographs, the talented Rebecca Wood. Rebecca captures weddings in such a soft and beautiful happy way and was the perfect match for this girly pink and peach inspiration design shoot.

For the design of the cake , I wanted to make it soft and cheery. So I incorparted several shades of pink and peach sugar pom poms. To give the vintage touch to the cake I created edible gold vintage keys and buttons (I know I’m obsessed). The main focal point of the cake was the fabric inspired large sugar flower which was hand painted with crafty touches.

Here are a few of the images from the shoot. You can check out the rest on Style me Pretty.

Stemz flowers designed the gorgeous floral arrangement. The peonies, roses and bougainvillea smelled amazing.  f

Cynthia found these adorable pattern soaps which complimented the custom designed menu made by Christine Flynn from Love the Design.

Champagne slushies…um..Yum!

Photography by Forbes Photographer

What better way for Jessica and Paul to celebrate their wedding day than in traditional Mardi Gras style at Toronto’s historic Castle Loma? Providing the perfect backdrop to both an incredibly romantic and super-fun celebration, the two enlisted the help of talented wedding coordinator Cynthia Martyn – who clearly did an amazing job – as well as the crew at Dufflets who created a incredibly festive (and delicious-looking) cake that totally encompassed the day’s enthusiastic and upbeat vibe.

As you can see, photographer Tim Forbes of Forbes Photographer managed to perfectly capture the joy and love between Jessica and Paul – as well as the elegance of the venue by really utilizing colour to help a story. (Kind of really makes you long for summer, doesn’t it?)
