Pat & Angela: Rustic Elegance in Muskoka

I adore Muskoka weddings - lakeside ceremonies, casual atmosphere, great friends and family with you for not just one day, but typically the whole weekend! Pat & Ange got married up in Lake of Bays, Muskoka on a gorgeous September weekend. This wedding was all about the details - unique touches like miniature smores kits in each guest's cabin inviting them to a fireside welcome bonfire, hangover kits for everyone the day after, and in between, a gorgeous Fall wedding lakeside complete with haybales, brightly coloured pashminas, a mini pom pom toss and one amazingly well-behaved "Ring Dog" Ruben who played the part perfectly. Our photographer Jennifer Klementti took these beautiful images of the day.



There are not many places you can do a toss after a ceremony, so we took advantage of the opportunity with mini red, orange and chocolate poms.



When Pat & Angela determined they didn't really want a traditional wedding cake, we came up with a Muskoka version! The wood wedding cake was a great decor piece that held seating cards for dinner and was then re-purposed for after-dinner as a candlelit version guiding guests to the tent for dancing and more merriment!



Christine from Love The Card did an amazing job with all the printed elements from the booklet invitations, to the seating cards, labels for the smores kits, favour bags and hangover kits.



The mini smores kits waiting for each guest upon arrival on Friday night and a cheeky pose for the Hangover Kits that were needed on Sunday morning! We included mini packages of aspirin, stomach reliever, bottled water and granola bars.
