High ceilings, antique fixtures, and a general aura of greatness exuded from the Hart House in downtown Toronto that afternoon and evening. Ti and Ken welcomed about 130 guests for an intimate ceremony in the Hart House courtyard, followed by a glamourous reception in the Grand Hall. They chose clean, neutral colours (yellow and champagne) for their decor and provided their guests with a taste of culture by wedging the traditional Chinese tea ceremony in between the festivities.
The day went smooth, with no glitches to report, and this could all be in part due to their down-to-earth nature and meticulous planning. Even the large fans that substituted for air conditioning (on a hot summer day in August) didn't stop the crowd from having a great time!
Special thanks to Suzette for assisting me that day. :)
