THE PROPOSAL
Dan sent a singing telegram to Victoria's house...he was the singer! During his song, he gave Victoria gift after gift until she was told to close her eyes before receiving the final gift. After counting to ten, Victoria opened her eyes to see Dan on his knee...
THE GOWN
Victoria wore two gowns on her wedding day. The ceremony gown was an ivory duchess satin A-line gown by Lazarro and the reception gown was a Monique L'huillier lace halter.
NUMBER OF GUESTS / ATTENDANTS
175
THE THEME
Romance was the theme and the event conveyed elegance, sophistication and perfection.
THE CAKE
An ornate, four tier, square cake.
FIRST DANCE SONG
Feels Like Home by Chantal Kreviazuk
THE MENU
A set menu of Seasonal Greens with Raspberries, Champagne Sorbet intermezzo, Beef Wellington, and Wedding Cake was served. Guests also enjoyed a collection of strawberries and drinks from an espresso cart.
WHAT MADE THE DAY UNIQUE
A sudden wind storm postponed the wedding for an hour while guests moved from their seats outdoors to a ceremony set-up indoors.

A signature cocktail they called "The Weddingtini" was served with the hors d'oeuvres.
