My training routine consisted of going to gym 3-4x per week. I was eating super healthy and drinking lots of water!
The decor for our wedding was all centered around the theme of "moody romantic" we were tired of the traditional pretty and pastel wedding looks. So we decided to use colours like black, burgundy and plenty greenery!
long rustic wooden tables with ghost chairs and gorgeous bushy runners of greenery mixed with gorgeous flowers and fruit and Vegetables as well as tall gold candelabras. Our main table was highlighted with a a beautiful backdrop from La Chandelier which was designed by the talented Hieke.
this backdrop is where we took our table decor inspiration from, we brought the backdrop to life along the guests tables.
The groom were a tailored black suit with a crisp white shirt and thin black tie.He finished his look with a gold tie clip as well as a gold Cassio watch The groomsmen were the same however they were black bow ties. All were from Markhams.
