De La Salle Heritage House Archives - Toronto Wedding Photographer

If I had to use two words to describe Jo & Pete’s wedding day at De La Salle Heritage House, it would be “tremendous joy”. As you will see from these photos, besides love and family, joy was an ever present theme. When I first met Jo & Pete over 1.5 years ago for coffee, I knew that their day was going to be a wildly fun day and boy was I right.

Here’s a little note from Jo & Pete:

“Dear Janice, thank you for being such an important part of our wedding day! Your photographs are absolutely gorgeous and it was a joy to work with you. We are forever grateful to you for capturing the love, laughter and fun of our day so beautifully!”

Thank you guys for welcoming me so warmly, and for opening yourselves up and just being you. Here’s the story of their day.

On a beautiful Spring day, sandwiched by two days of heavy rain, Janice & Matt got married at the De La Salle Heritage House in Toronto. It’s a lovely location for a wedding! You can get ready here as they have rooms for guests to stay in, have your ceremony here, as well as your reception. Everything is in one place, which makes it really easy and stress free for the big day.

When Janice first emailed me, we bonded over our mutual love for The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (we also share the same first name!). It was a life-changing read for both of us. I could tell then that their wedding would be quite special. Maya Angelou said: I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. This definitely rings true for Janice & Matt’s ceremony. Even after having been to so many weddings, I was still so moved by their vows and the way they looked at each other.

It was a true celebration of love & people. Thank you, Janice & Matt for allowing me to document this special day. Here’s their wedding story!
