For brides still planning their weddings, we asked Ellie to share a bit of advice.
I would advise them to hire a wedding planner! Mine was Jodi Gagne of Simply Perfect Events and her help, support and sanity was invaluable. On the day of the wedding all I had to do was sit back, enjoy the day with my friends and family and try and relax. There was no detail that I had to concern myself about. Not only was everything taken care of but Jodi instilled in me a confidence so I knew everything would be taken care of.

We also asked Ellie about her favorite part of the day…
The wedding day was full of wonderful moments. I have to admit the day went quite smoothly which I was a bit nervous about because the wedding had been planned within a six-month period. However, one of the best moments was after dinner and the speeches when we showed our wedding guests a 5 minute video that our incredibly talented videographers had already put together of the actual wedding day. An option they offered in addition to our wedding videos was that some of the video footage taken during the first half of the day and the  ceremony would be edited and put to music while we were eating and listening to speeches. When the video started playing our audience was amazed (as were we) by the quality of the editing that had been accomplished within a couple of hours. It was such an exciting moment and gave everyone a glimpse of the earlier part of the day before the ceremony.

And that very same-day edit video that stunned Ellie, Kevin and their guests, filmed by Toronto’s own Still Motion, has also filled us with awe. Opening with a gorgeous shot of Ellie and Kevin’s letterpress invitations from Bella Figura, we are totally in love with the work of Still Motion and are so excited to share their same-day edit with you!
