The Original Wedding Soiree 2013 – Intercontinental Yorkville Toronto

This year’s The Original Wedding Soiree was hosted at Yorkville’s Intercontinental Hotel today.

And what a day it was! It coincided with the St. Patrick’s Day parade, so there were hordes of people everywhere along Bloor St. We arrived at 11 am and the show was already jam packed. We were fortunate enough to bump into one of our friends who happened to model for the show’s bridal fashion show. She advised us to get seats right away at the High Tea room for the fashion show to avoid standing. We also had some finger food while we enjoyed the show.

After the show we went out to visit many of the booths. Personally I think the Original Wedding Soiree has grown very nicely, and likely next year they’ll have to host it somewhere even bigger to accommodate all the amazing vendors and bigger crowds. Here are some more photos of the show for you to enjoy!

As an Easter egg, here’s a pic we shot of the St. Paddy’s Day parade at street level. It’s Back to the Future! Kind of like how we all feel when we are planning our wedding….let’s just travel to the future so it can be done! XD

✨ Why Corpo Santo Hotel is My Lisbon Favourite ✨

When I stayed at Corpo Santo Hotel in Lisbon, I fell completely in love. 🏛️ The ancient ruins in the basement transport you back in time, while each themed floor tells its own unique story. And don’t even get me started on the 24/7 snacks available on every floor (yes, every floor!) and the cozy, welcoming lobby that feels like a home away from home.

This hotel isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience. It’s my go-to recommendation for couples dreaming of a destination wedding in Lisbon. Trust me, you’ll fall in love here too! 💕
