Ottawa Winter Weddings, and Wedding Shows

It's been another busy week here, but definitely a lot of fun.  I'm not sure I believe that winter is much of an off-season for weddings, nor should it be.  With some couples taking advantage of the gorgeous sparkling snow and lovely landscape (or the sunny destinations to travel to to say their vows), the rest are planning theirs with flurries of inquiries and trips to wedding shows.

I've spent time this week visualizing scenes for tomorrow's wedding at Ottawa's City Hall and Downtown shoot, wrapping up some work for University of Ottawa, while preparing for Ottawa's hot new Wedding Show, Wedbyhand.  There were a few extra things to order so they would arrive by Feb 6th, and Sunday was the soiree at Mambo for the vendors and sponsors.  

As tends to happen, there wasn't enough time to chat with everyone, but I really enjoyed meeting the ladies from Auntie Loo's Treats, Sarah from PurpleUrchinSoap, and Danielle of Six. Modern Paper Goods, who's actually from my neck of the woods in NorthWesternOntario (see her post here).  It was great to talk with Vanessa as another photographer and Amy of Splendid Events was an absolute pleasure to be around with a site every soon-to-be-wed couple should check out.  I can't wait to see what Kate (Flights of Fancy) has to show us, she's got such style.  It was truly a room full of incredible, talented ladies.  I love the warmth and sense of community.  I'm looking forward to meeting the rest of you as it gets closer to the show!

In it's second year, Wedbyhand is the show to be at to meet Ottawa's local, handmade, eco-friendly wedding experts.  I will post more info about the show soon, but tomorrow morning you can find out more on the A Morning Show!  (Tune in for about 8:45 am, Friday)
