Save the date for the Whitetail Wedding Gala!
We are so excited to be the official wedding planners at the Whitetail Meadow Wedding Gala! We are in the midst of planning all of the details – stay tuned for the full list of vendors and exciting details for a wedding event like no other at this gorgeous Manitoba wedding venue.
Once in a while, a wedding comes along that is so much fun! Cherry-Mae and Jay-R’s Canad Inns Club Regent wedding was just that.
These two are so in love, and I could see it from the first day I met with them. The entire day reflected their fun personalities and deep love for each other.
The day started with a beautiful ceremony at Leo Mol Sculpture Garden and ended in celebration at the Canad Inns Club Regent Hotel. Every detail was glam, glam, glam. They wanted their guests to be blown away when they walked into the reception – with the spectacular decor and dramatic wedding cake – their vision definitely came to life!

2018 was an amazing year here at Divine Weddings! Beautiful weddings, fabulous styled shoots, and lots of fun in between.
We started the year off at The Wonderful Wedding Show in January. It was so fun meeting new brides and grooms, and showing off our Peridot styled shoot for the show’s VIB magazine.
You can see the feature here VIB Magazine

We got to hang out at the Hitch ‘n Post in June for their annual Open House. We had a blast with all of the vendors and we even threw a few axes in the axe throwing booth! Check out the entire feature here.
We adore styled shoots! Planning and designing an entire look and working with amazing vendors is so much fun. We headed out to Hawthorn Estates earlier this year and helped to create this STUNNING styled shoot – greenery, pretty florals, elegant calligraphy, and two gorgeous models. You can’t ask for anything better! Take a look at the stunning images here.
A few times a year we work with Crown Royal in Gimli to plan their media tours. Two day events to schmooze media type folks and educate them on the Crown Royal products. Always a good time, we enjoy creating fabulous events for them and building on the Crown Royal brand.
Check out this year’s event! Day 1 here and Day 2 here.
Willow Grove Orchard is the cutest little venue out in Argyle, Manitoba. We headed out there in July for Kayleigh and Brandon’s gorgeous summer wedding day, and to say it was gorgeous is an understatement! You have to see these stunning images! Take a look here.
Such an exquisite wedding day! Wajihah and Jason were married at the Heritage Centre in Niverville and then celebrated with a reception at Whitetail Meadow. Check out their same day edit below from Michael J. Scott Productions.
Weddings at The Forks are always my fave! Rebecca and Sean exchanged marriage vows at the picturesque Oodena Circle and then the party moved over to the Inn at the Forks. You can check out their feature here.
Are you ready for some serious wedding eye candy? Renee and Carson’s Whitetail Meadow wedding has gobs and gobs of pretty goodness. It was such a great summer wedding day. See it here.
We always love weddings at Ashgrove Acres, and we spent quite a bit of time there this past summer! Jess and Eric’s wedding day was a gorgeous combination of happy and beautiful 🙂 See the entire stunning feature here.
Fun, fun, fun! Cherry-Mae and Jay-R had the most fun (and freakin’ gorgeous) wedding day at Leo Mol Sculpture Garden. Their wedding feature will be coming to the blog next week, but in the meantime, click here to see their wedding video by Rygiel Photography & Video.
Like I said, we spent a lot of time at Ashgrove Acres this summer! Lorissa and Dan’s pretty little rustic wedding had it all! An absolutely gorgeous summer wedding with tons of pretty details! See it here.
We always love working at new venues, and this past summer we got to plan a wedding at Camp Manitou. Such a unique venue! The perfect spot for Stephanie and Andrew’s wedding day – just wait till you see the magical wedding ceremony nestled in the forest. Amazing! Take a look here.
When you get to work with friends, well, it just doesn’t get any better than that. I’ve been buds with Alex and Chad for a few years now and I couldn’t be happier to help them with their fabulous fall wedding day. If you are ready to have your creative minds blown, check out their feature here.
We ended 2018 in style yesterday! Thanks to Whitney Dianne for this fabulous shot of these two lovebirds ringing in the New Year! Stay tuned to see images from this awesome NYE wedding on the blog in the coming weeks!
Happy New Year everyone!
Whitetail Meadow is a new wedding venue that opened up this year, so we were pretty pumped to have our first wedding there in August.
Not only is Whitetail Meadow a gorgeous venue, but working with Renne and Carson was a dream. They are such beautiful people, inside and out, and it really showed on their wedding day. From beginning to end, the entire day flowed so nicely and everything turned out beautifully.
The Floral Fixx rocked the florals once again! And the cupcakes, you have to see these cupcakes by Tanya Porcher! So pretty. And of course the beautiful bride – her dress was so gorgeous!
As we are wrapping up our last wedding of 2018 (it’s a NYE wedding, and it’s going to be awesome), it’s nice to reflect on all of the beautiful weddings we were able to be a part of this past year. Looking forward to our 2019 weddings, and a few at Whitetail Meadow. Can’t wait!
Enjoy these stunning images by Charmaine Mallari, and thanks to all these vendors for helping to make Renee and Carson’s wedding so amazing!

I have been bursting at the seams waiting to share this wedding with you all! Alex and Chad are not just fab clients – they are also the FUNNEST people and have been friends of mine for the last few years. So I was over the moon excited to help them with their big day!
Alex and Chad wanted a unique venue and came across Grö Greenhouse – such an amazing location! Greenhouse in the summer, amazing wedding venue in the fall! The clear glass walls and ceiling made it the perfect spot for their day. They were also able to host their ceremony on the property which was ideal.
Alex’s mom Beverly is a creative wizard and created many of the decor items, including the flower wall and even the light up LOVE letters on the dance floor. Amazing! I loved all the wooden tables and benches too – warmed up the space nicely. The room came alive after sunset and created magical ambiance with the string lights on the ceiling.
Every teeny tiny bit of this wedding has gobs full of gorgeousness – including the bride and groom. Such stunners! I love Chad’s suit and tie, and Alex’s dress and flower crown were absolute show stoppers! Yum-oh! You’ll see in the photos below…stunning.
Congrats my friends. It was an incredible pleasure working with you both!

A touch of rustic, gobs of pretty, and a whole lot of love. Lorissa and Dan’s wedding at Ashgrove Acres was the perfect mix of everything you need for the loveliest of summer weddings.
Ashgrove Acres has never been so pretty – between the gorgeous flowers, perfect rustic details, and the most stunning bride ever, it was an absolute delight to have been a part of this day. Lorissa and Dan made it so easy – chill and relaxed and surrounded by so much love. It was an amazing day.

The yearly Crown Royal event is always a two day event, and is always an amazing time. Day one was held in Gimli, home of the Crown Royal plant. Day two is always held in Winnipeg, and this year was held at Cibo Waterfront Cafe.
To see pics from Day 1 click here. To see images from the last Crown Royal event, click here.
Cibo is such a cool space! It was the perfect location for day two. The chef created amazing food that paired perfectly with the craft cocktails. Guests enjoyed live music, appetizers, a delicious meal and cocktails, along with a whisky tasting of the Crown Royal whiskies.
Thanks again to these awesome vendors!

Every year we get to work with the folks at Crown Royal to plan their media tour. A two day event to schmooze journalists and writers, and show off the Crown Royal Product.
Day one took us out to Gimli for a tour of the Crown Royal plant, a helicopter ride over Gimli, ending with a lakeside soirée on the shores of Lake Winnipeg. There were craft cocktails, a delicious dinner, and ice carving demos. And no lakeside party would be complete without a campfire and yummy marshmallows to toast.
I always look forward to the Crown Royal events. They are a fab bunch to work with and I always have so much fun working with the vendors to bring together an amazing event.
Check out the blog tomorrow for photos of Day 2!

Now, this was a fun wedding day! Cherry-Mae and Jay-R are such beautiful people and they were so much fun to work with!
We helped coordinate their big fat Filipino wedding at Canad Inns Club Regent this past summer and I am excited to share a clip of their wedding video by Rygiel Photography & Video. See the entire video here.

We’ve seen our share of beautiful brides over the years, and we are so lucky to be able to work with the most amazing wedding photographers in Winnipeg to capture these stunning brides.

This is another example of a photographer using natural elements – and the way Ally Papko used the branches to frame Jess perfectly in this shot is so gorgeous. See more of this Ashgrove Acres wedding here.

Kelly and Cole were married at the Radisson Hotel last month, and I really can’t say enough about how awesome it was to work with these two amazing people!
We work so hard to make every couple’s wedding day as spectacular as possible, and when they are over the moon happy and go out of their way to send us a thank-you message, it makes all of the hard work worth it.
“I need to text you! Firstly, I owe my life to you. Thank you so much. Today is my first day back to work and the whole office is raving about the day. You made it perfect for us. Thank you so much for everything. And for everything you did that I don’t even know about!” ~Kelly
Check out a sneak peek of this amazing day by visiting the blog post from their fab photographer Michael Scorr Photography.
Full post of photos coming to the blog soon!
Have an amazing weekend everyone!
We always love working with Ashgrove Acres – such a beautiful country wedding venue. So we were thrilled when Jess and Eric chose it to tie the knot.
Everything about this wedding was F-U-N. From the bride’s green sneakers to the lawn games at cocktail hour, Jess and Eric wanted to have a day that truly reflected their style and showed their guests a great time – mission accomplished I’d say!
I adored the colour palette that Jess chose. Deep green, black and white with natural touches. The natural green grounds of Ashgrove Acres provided the perfect backdrop! It was really the perfect venue for this awesome couple.
Congrats to Jess and Eric and big thanks to all the vendors that made it such an amazing day for them both.
