Thank You from a Bride & Groom

I always love it when my brides and grooms email me after their wedding with photos from their Big Day. Their photographer took a photo of the invitation I had created for them... and here is my absolutely stunning bride and her handsome husband! Photo by Sophie Asselin.

Dear Caryn,

I am writing to you following our July 5th wedding held at Parc Jean-Drapeau, in Montreal.

Pierre-André and I wanted to express how beautiful we thought the invitations were. We had chosen colors and a model that we felt would set the tone for this once in a lifetime event, and your artistry helped to launch what would be one of the most memorable days for us yet!

I have added a photograph taken by our photographer, Sophie Asselin, of your invitation.

Thank you once again for helping to make this most wonderful day, simply perfect.

Montreal's First Ever Shaadi Show

We had an amazing opportunity to be one of the exhibitors at the first ever Montreal Shaadi Show a week ago and boy, did we have fun!  As you can imagine how many trade shows you've been to over the years both as guests and as exhibitors, but we have never had this much fun!

All the guests and visitors were very fun to talk to, the vendors were friendly and genuine, the fashion show was definitely an eye opener, the food was yum yum good, the jewelries were absolutely beautiful, (especially the ones from Boutique de Luxe), the MC and show organizer, Girish, ran the show without a hitch, the entertainment by Bollywood Blast was just over the top!

If you couldn't make it to the show this year, you miss out! But no worries, stay tuned for next year's show, it will be bigger and better!  Meanwhile, here are some shots from the show for you to enjoy... better yet, here's a video by InterFace Media. For our full photo album, visit our facebook page. Enjoy!

2010 in Review

2010 flew by so fast! So much happened at A Timeless Celebration, it was such a wonder year for us!

The first and the most important addition to the company, Gloria Choi! She officially joined the company when we kicked off our year at the Marions-Nous Wedding Show at the beginning of January.

After the wedding show, we immediately started with our expansion project. From a 300 sq ft showroom to a 1000 sq ft showroom!

Before all this expansion excitement, we were surprised by WeddingWire with a 2010 Bride's Choice Award! We totally didn't see that coming, it was such an honor, thank you brides and grooms for your support! We were quote in an article called Always the Bridesmaids: Rules and etiquette of Being a Bridesmaid in the magazine Bride & Groom Canada. Another media highlight for us. We sold out all our gift certificates on Shopcorus within 2 days and some of you even gave us shoutouts after hearing our ad on Q92 radio station!

Then all the craziness of the weddings began! We did over 200 weddings and events this past year. Wow! It sure didn't seem like it! Here's a short video of our showroom and some of our favorite wedding decorations from this year.

Enjoy! Happy new year!

Nice Surprise

What a nice surprise today as I walked into the office. I recently did some wedding destination invitations for a very nice couple, Dima & Ken. They were so pleased with our service and the way their invitations came out that they sent us a $50 gift certificate to a SPA! So very kind of them!

I absolutely love my job, and this is what really pays off, making future brides and grooms happy and their wedding planning experience enjoyable.

Dima and Ken has an online poetry website, Love Poems & Quotes. I invite you to check it out. Perhaps you will find a special poem to include in your wedding invitations!

*****

Dim & Ken,

I enjoyed very much working with you on your invitations from beginning to end. Thank you very much for your thoughtful gift, I will definitely put the gift certificate to good use! Have fun at your destination wedding and best wishes in your marriage!

xoxo
Caryn
