Posted in Beautifully, Blog, Celebrate, Loves

2010 was a year of firsts for us at Melissa Andre – Celebrate.Beauty.  We left our PCs for MACs… We moved to an adorable little penthouse with an amazing view of the CN Tower… and we planned and designed our first Monday wedding Toronto Wedding Planner   Melissa Andre

When Miriam first contacted me about her May 24th wedding I immediately knew it would be a match made in planner/bride heaven. We would meet for the best planning power lunches on king street and trade wedding advice for legal advice (Miriam of course being a lawyer). After I met her fiance Eli i was even more thrilled about working on their wedding. Thanks to http://www.eclipsephotography.com/ and www.flowerparade.ca  for their work on this gorgeous wedding!
I am looking forward to many more power lunches on King Street with Miriam…. with and without the wedding chats!

Monica was married in December 2009 and I had the honour of being part of her beautiful wedding day.  People always ask me how they can pull off the perfect red lip – well, THIS is how! She looks like Snow White before the poison apple situtation!

Monica’s intimate ceremony was the  best way to kick off the holiday season and on TOP of being one of the most gorgeous brides I have ever had the pleasure of working with – she is the sweetest!
I’m looking forward to seeing her AGAIN this fall as I work on her good friend Denise’s wedding!

Posted in Beautifully, Blog, Celebrate, Uncategorized

I could honestly gush FOREVER about this bride and her family. Katarina and her 2 GORGEOUS sisters and mom were an absolute dream come true to work with. From her Oscar De La Renta wedding gown to her bouquet of Orchids, roses, and Peonies there was nothing at this wedding that was less than perfect.  Below are some beautiful photos thanks to Shutterbrugs, Bliss, Designing Trendz, and everyone else for making this blog-worthy wedding happen!  P.s. Katarina is also a super talented cake maker so i’m sure i’ll be blogging about that part of this beautiful bride’s life soon enough! Katarina was absolutely one of my all time favourite brides to work with ever so I’m so glad to be sharing photos from her wedding with you!

CARLY’S MUSKOKA WEDDING AT TABOO

Posted in Beautifully, Blog, Celebrate, Loves, Uncategorized

I first met Carly at her King west town home and we quickly bonded over Michael Jackson videos and the idea of the birdcage veil. we looked through photos of her sister Cam’s beach wedding and talked through the details of hers!
Spending the day in Muskoka with this colourful and beautiful bridal party was the perfect way to spend a Saturday in August and this is definitely a bride I love to keep in touch with! Of course we had to create a hair and makeup look as gorgeous as the dress Carly chose to compliment the venue! I created a hair and makeup look that did the same!
Here are some photos of Carly and her sister and maid of honour Cam before the ceremony.

Working with Leanne on her wedding day was an absolute dream. Our first meeting at her apartment in the beaches went on for hours as we bonded over Disney princess hair, our favourite shampoo, allergic reactions, the colour blue,  and  naturally, her wedding! Every single detail of this wedding was handled to perfection, including the wedding day hair and makeup!

Here are just a few of the gorgeous images from her wedding! (Photos by Little White Dress)

Meet Melanie!

Posted in Beautifully, Blog

MANY of my brides have met her in person because she is one of our lead hair stylists!!  We spend many early mornings and late nights together making brides absolutely stunning on the most important day of their lives. So, when Melanie got engaged, we spent years (2 to be exact) thinking about her look and creating something as stunning as she is!
These are her engagement and wedding photos shot by Gene Medeiros! I think they are absolutely beautiful! It was my absolute pleasure doing Melanie’s hair and makeup for her wedding! Enjoy – Melissa
