07-21-2012 Jessica & Trevor’s gorgeous summer wedding at the Howard Johnson Hotel in Sudbury, ON was beautifully decorated, sophisticated and elegant with personal touches from the Bride & Groom and the family.
We met Trevor & Jessica at the hall only a couple hours prior to their ceremony. I was struck by how calm they both were. They were there to put the finishing touches on the table centerpieces, tall vases with led lights, glass stones and peacock feathers. As I talked with Jessica, I asked her who decorated the hall. We have a few very talented decorators in town. To my surprise she told me she’d ordered the chair covers and linens online through a company in California (www.chaircoverfactory.com) for a fraction of what it would cost to rent them. Fortunately for her, her parents winter in Arizona so she was able to order them, have them delivered to the Arizona address, and when her parents came home, they didn’t have to worry about duty when they crossed the border. The table centerpieces were purchased in the states as well for a fraction again of what it would cost here. It can be so costly when planning a wedding. When you’re able to find a deal and still get the look you’re going for, what more could you ask for? The beautiful thing is, after your wedding is all done, you can sell all of the chair covers, linens, and centerpieces on Kijiji and help out another bride looking to save some money on her wedding!
