It's at long last that I finally share some of the photos from my wedding just over a month ago - time just flies when you're having so much fun! :)

Our beautiful wedding photographs were taken by my very talented little cousin
Rebecca Christink who worked so artfully to capture so many beautiful images.

Our ceremony began early evening, performed by our favourite priest, Father Murray. It was such a special experience to be surrounded by so many loved ones, and such profound, meaningful words. Andrew's Aunt Marcey and Ambuya (Grandma) rose in song from their seats, offering a blessing in Shona, followed by an Irish love song Andrew's grandfather used to serenade his grandmother with.
{There were a few tears.}

Immediately after the ceremony, cocktails and appetizers were served (Andrew's mum's famous rum punch). The room was decorated in all white with Tiffany blue accents and lace. The centrepieces were small hedges adorned with butterflies I'd cut out of iridescent velum (they glow in candlelight...). On each place setting was a Thank You note with a special message from Andrew and I to all of our guests. Our lovely favours with homemade Molasses Cookies from my Nana Ruth's recipe (a family favourite she'd brought home from Zimbabwe).

We were lucky enough to have wedding cupcakes made by my favourite new bakery in town,
Desmond & Beatrice - they were absolutely heaven - perfect, buttery richness, and even with a little sparkle! My husband was asking for them on our way to the hotel after the reception. If you live in Toronto -
place your order quick, quick, quick!
At the end of the day, it was a magical, memorable experience.Thank you, thank you for everyone who made it such a special day! x
