Krystle and Evan

Wednesday, November 9, 2011






































There are some things that have a certain Southern quality to them–pastel peonies and garden roses, classic, full skirted gowns, antique cars and dapper gentlemen in matching suits stand out in particular. These elements can lend an air of Southern charm to a wedding, even one as far from the South as this celebration in Ontario, Canada.

Krystle and Evan chose the Ancaster Mill, a former flour mill, for their venue; not surprisingly, a flour/flower theme was born, and the couple scouted Etsy and flea markets for every vintage flour canister, sieve and vessel they could get their hands on! Navy and pink invitations by Blush Design Studio reflected the couple's fondness for flowers, and Mirella of Rainflower Company made sure each treasured vase was overflowing with shades of pink, peach and yellow.

The bride chose a delicately textured Watters gown and a pair of embellished blush flats from Nine West; her bridesmaids wore blush dresses from Alfred Sung, along with striking navy pumps and matching pearl necklaces. Evan chose a navy three-piece suit and bowtie by Harry Rosen, while his groomsmen opted for more casual cuts and narrow ties.

And perhaps best of all, Lori of Lori Studios was on hand to capture each moment, and generously agreed to share her beautiful images! So, tell me what you think–does this gorgeous Ontario celebration have a touch of down home charm, or am I absolutely out of my mind?
