100th Birthday Celebration in Oakville, Ontario

My grandmother-in-law reached her 100th birthday in July of last year and as a family, we came together to celebrate her with a beautiful dinner! Her kids, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were all in attendance which made for a love-filled afternoon. To know Hazel is a very special thing. She is sweet, thoughtful, cheerful and leaves a lasting impression on everyone she meets. I can say with certainty that she is very much loved even by those who have only met her once.

A local favourite, Special Event Rentals, provided all of the linens, plates, glassware, and chairs, and my brother-in-law, a wonderful chef, prepared a delicious dinner.

A backyard celebration wouldn’t have been the same without the typical weather challenges and right as we had the last glass set, a quick furious rainstorm was on the horizon which meant we had to quickly take it all down and reset after it had moved through! What a journey.

A huge thank you to Kevin at Morning Light Photography for capturing all the details and some incredible family portraits! We’re very grateful for all of those who made the day wonderful for our beautiful Hazel!

Private Estate Tent Spring Bridal Shower in burlington, ontario

Lianne’s gorgeous bridal shower took place in June of 2022 under a tent in her parent’s beautiful backyard in Burlington, Ontario. Spring weather can change on a dime and will pose extra challenges for outdoor events so planning accordingly is key. We certainly lucked out with the most gorgeous weather and ran into just a little rain for about 5 minutes; thank you, Weather Gods!

Also, can you even believe we ended up in the most perfect location with the tent perfectly sitting atop the beautiful artificial grass? It made for the most incredible base for an outdoor setting.

We’ll let the images speak for themselves with all the gorgeous details from some incredible local vendors.

Photographed by Robin Sassi, tent and rentals from Special Event Rentals, florals by Sue Gallo Designs, stationery by Statue Rue, cake from Cake and Kale, and catering from Gourmet Chef at Your Table, this day truly is one of our favourites!
