Small weddings often carry the biggest emotions, and Tori and Isaac’s day at Upper Canada Village was filled with so much love and meaning. Surrounded by only their closest family and friends, their celebration was heartfelt, personal, and filled with so much joy.

The ceremony took place in front of Chrysler Hall, one of the village’s most striking historic buildings. With its stately two-storey pillars and beautifully kept gardens, it created the most timeless backdrop for their vows. Tori made her entrance in a horse-drawn carriage, a moment straight out of a fairytale, while Isaac stood waiting with a mix of excitement and nerves, looking so proud in his traditional Scottish kilt.

Their ceremony was short, sweet, and full of meaning. As they shared their vows, you could feel the love radiating not only from the couple but from everyone gathered there. And their exit down the aisle was one for the books; a dramatic dip kiss that had everyone cheering, followed by the pure joy on Tori’s face as she walked hand in hand with her new husband. Isaac couldn’t take his eyes off his beautiful bride, and it was such a perfect reflection of their love.

Afterwards, we wandered into the gardens for family portraits. The space was lush and peaceful, giving us the perfect spot to capture warm, natural moments with their loved ones.

Once those were complete, I had the pleasure of joining Tori and Isaac on the carriage for a ride down to the canal. This is one of my favorite parts of the day, just the two of them together, soaking in the quiet after all the excitement.

As we reached the canal, the sun began to dip lower in the sky, painting everything in a golden glow. With the historic Christ Church in the background, it felt like we had stepped back in time. It was romantic, timeless, and absolutely stunning.

Tori and Isaac’s wedding was a beautiful reminder that a wedding doesn’t need to be grand to be unforgettable. With a meaningful location, a handful of loved ones, and a love as strong as theirs, the day was everything it was meant to be.
