The Museum Wedding in Kitchener

Megan + Joshua

Megan + Joshua had an amazing fall wedding at the The Museum in Kitchener, Ontario.

Dinosours crashing the wedding, a ‘beer boy’ walking down the aisle and chicken dance in honour of Oktoberfest!

We began the day with everyone getting ready in some really nice suites at the recently remodelled Walper Hotel which just happens to be across the street from The Museum in downtown Kitchener. Hair and makeup was done by Autumn Artistry and Makeup.

The first look was done in Goudies Land in downtown in Kitchener which was a great backdrop with it’s urban feel and modern look. We then met up with all the families at a nearby park for some formal family portraits. I’ve said it before, but having that first look is such a great idea to make the wedding timeline flow smoother and provide a better experience for your guests. Plus, it helps with those wedding day jitters if you’ve already seen each other by the time the ceremony rolls around!

The ceremony was great, the venue is such a unique space and so different from so many typical wedding venues. I think the highlight for me was the beer boy! What’s that, your wedding didn’t have a full grown man coming down the aisle handing out beers and blowing rose petals… your loss. :)

Second favourite highlight from the ceremony was Joshua getting a little emotional during his vows and accidentally dropping an F bomb. :)

After the ceremony it was off to cocktail hour where a family of dinosours made an appearance… totally normal. Dinner itself was catered by Little Mushroom Catering who I’ve worked with before and they do an amazing job if you’re looking for an offsite caterer for your event! Wedding florals were provided by Hello Gorgeous Flowers.

After dinner were some formal dances and then everyone was on the dance floor for the chicken dance…. I mean, it is October in Kitchener after all! The DJ from Complete events kept everyone on the dance floor for the rest of the night.

Congratulations Megan + Joshua, and thanks again for having me be a part of your big day!
