Ashley and Alessandro tied the knot on a beautiful fall day this past October. They came to Madeline’s looking for the perfect wedding day décor and coordination. No detail was overlooked for this fabulous wedding! From the stationery to the spotlighting, this wedding had it all. For their colours, they chose a very modern colour palette – black, plum and lime green. Madeline’s dressed each reception table in floor length plum satin linens with plum overlays. We used lime green pintuck runners and lime green napkins for a splash of colour for each table. Black satin chair covers were used to tie all three colours together. Upon arriving to the reception, the guest book table was the first glance guests saw of their beautiful wedding décor. Here we used lime green pintuck linens, a plum runner and plum chair covers accented with tall votive candles and fresh flowers from The Floral Fixx. Ashley and Alessandro’s wedding cake was simply gorgeous! To highlight this table, we used lime green pintuck linens with candles and spotlighting. The design for their spectacular head table consisted of lime green satin linens with a damask print overlay,
spanning the entire length of the table. Ashley and Alessandro chose Madeline’s Premium Head Table Décor which featured glass vases filled with floating candles, spotlights and plenty of fresh rose petals. The entire top length of the table was lined with even more candles and rose petals! The Floral Fixx placed beautiful hydrangea bouquets all along the front and framed the head table with two vases filled with curly-willow branches. Madeline’s white backdrop finished off the head table while bursts of colourful spotlights placed all around the ballroom set the mood perfectly. Madeline’s also custom designed Ashley and Alessandro’s wedding invitations, respond cards and reception stationery which included menus, table numbers, a fabulous seating chart and a fun reception welcome sign greeting their guests!

This past summer, Madeline’s Weddings travelled back to Red Lake, Ontario for another fabulous wedding! Ashley and Rick wanted the perfect wedding décor to fit their vision and we gave them a wedding they will never forget.
This wedding was full of details, details, details! One special item included a vintage car for their wedding day, complete with a “Just Married” sign! And we can’t forget that one of their flower girls was their adorable daughter! We worked with Ashley for just over a year planning the perfect day. Their wedding reception was nothing short of amazing. Dripping with crystals and lit by just the right lighting, the mood was set for the perfect reception. Madeline’s designed a chic décor scheme for our happy couple. For their reception tables, we dressed them in gorgeous lilac pintuck linens. We also used ivory chair covers along with ivory table runners and matching napkins.

For their head table, we featured ivory linens and lilac swooped organza draped over the front of the two-tired table. Ivory satin runners and soft romantic candles lined the table from one end to the other creating the perfect romantic setting. Their cake table and guest book table were dressed in matching lilac pintuck linens. Madeline’s also provided spotlighting, our amazing ceiling décor and our new crystal backdrop which looked simply amazing among the crystal columns! Madeline’s also laid out a fabulous candy buffet and placed a canopy over the spread to really make it shine! Madeline’s also designed Ashley and Rick’s wedding invitations –which featured an image of the couple – and their matching respond cards. We also created their reception menus, table numbers and “reserved for family” signs – all designed to match their invitations.

We met Janelle and Robert when they were looking for a Wedding Day Coordinator and the perfect décor for their day! We fell in love with their gorgeous and vibrant colour scheme right from the start. This wedding had lots of amazing details! For their colours, Janelle and Robert chose a very fun combination of colours including ivory, fuchsia and lime. Madeline’s dressed their reception tables in our stylish ivory linens with champagne overlays. We complimented the linens with lime satin table runners. We also used our ivory chair covers and ivory napkins to match. For both their head table and guest book table, we used our lime satin linens under swooped ivory pintuck linens and topped with fuchsia satin table runners. The cake table featured our new patterned fuchsia and lime linens. The patterned linen colours matched so perfectly, it was the perfect choice to make their fabulous wedding cake stand out! We wrapped their podium in a matching ivory pintuck linen and finished it off with a lime wrap. And to set the mood, Madeline’s featured spotlighting for both the head table, cake table and dessert bar.
Another fabulous detail was their amazing dessert bar spread. Here we also used ivory linens, champagne overlays, fuchsia table runners and plenty of beautiful glassware and candles. Madeline’s also custom designed Janelle and Robert's seating chart and the fun stationery used for the dessert bar. Their dessert bar was a huge hit with guests and as you can see, it looked simply amazing! Reception Fort Garry Hotel Cake & Cookie Favours The Cupcake Corner
