A day of Arcs : Tiffany & Liam's elegant wedding at the Palais Royale by Saharsh Cherian

If you’re dreaming of an elegant, charming Toronto wedding with stunning city backdrops and unforgettable moments, you’ll love Tiffany and Liam’s wedding day! I had the pleasure of capturing their celebration from a romantic first look to a breathtaking sunset shoot along Toronto’s waterfront. This wedding was one of those that reminds me of why I love being a wedding photographer. Tiffany and Liam’s connection was palpable, their joy infectious, and their venues—each a Toronto landmark—made every shot even more magical.

First Look at the Iconic Princes' Gates

Tiffany and Liam’s day began with an emotional first look at the Princes' Gates. Known for its grand architecture and sweeping views, it provided a beautiful backdrop for these first precious moments together. With just the right mix of excitement and a touch of nerves, they saw each other for the first time, and the love they shared was so evident. I always love capturing these moments—the anticipation, the reactions, and the sweet, private moments the couple shares before the whirlwind of the day truly begins.

Bridal Party Portraits and Classic City Vibes

After their first look, we explored the area with the bridal party for some incredible portraits. From the impressive arches of the Princes' Gates to the road outside Palais Royale, every location provided the perfect blend of classic and urban vibes. The bridal party was fun, energetic, and totally embraced the joy of the day, which made for some fantastic candid moments alongside the elegant shots.

An Intimate Ceremony at Palais Royale

The ceremony took place at the Palais Royale, an elegant venue that overlooks Lake Ontario. The setting was intimate and refined, creating a perfect atmosphere for Tiffany and Liam to exchange vows. They looked so in love as they promised forever in front of family and friends. It’s these genuine, heartfelt moments that make every wedding feel unique and timeless, and the Palais Royale’s charm only added to the beauty of their vows.

Golden Hour by the Water

As the day turned to evening, we moved to the path by the water for a sunset shoot. The golden hour light cast a warm, ethereal glow over the newlyweds, creating a soft and romantic atmosphere. Capturing these moments of just the two of them by the water, with the city skyline in the background, was an incredible way to end their day. Tiffany and Liam’s chemistry was undeniable, and as they laughed, danced, and soaked in the moment, it was clear they were savoring every second of their celebration.

After the Rains : Kayla & Kyle's Whistle Bear Golf Club Wedding by Saharsh Cherian

As a wedding photographer based in Hamilton, Ontario, I get the chance to document love stories all over the province. Recently, I photographed Kayla and Kyle's wedding at the stunning Whistle Bear Golf Club in Cambridge, Ontario—a perfect venue for their elegant and fun-filled day.

Getting Ready Moments

The day began with Kayla getting ready, surrounded by her closest friends and family. There’s something magical about these quiet, intimate moments, and Kayla’s excitement was contagious.

An Indoor Ceremony with a Rainy Backdrop

Rain can sometimes be an unwelcome guest, but it didn’t take away from the beauty of Kayla and Kyle’s ceremony. Luckily, the indoor space at Whistle Bear was beautifully decorated, offering a romantic and cozy setting as the rain fell outside. The indoor ceremony turned out to be just as special as an outdoor one, with all eyes on the happy couple as they exchanged vows.

Stunning Portraits After the Rain

After the ceremony, the rain cleared, leaving behind a stunning sky that made for a dreamy backdrop during the portrait session. The soft, post-rain light combined with the natural beauty of Whistle Bear Golf Club added something extra special to their photos. It was the perfect setting to capture the love and joy between Kayla and Kyle.

A Fun and Memorable Reception

One of the standout moments of the day was Kayla and Kyle’s first dance. What started as a slow, romantic dance quickly turned into something fun and upbeat, reflecting their personalities perfectly. As a surprise, the wedding party had even planned a flash mob, turning the dance floor into a lively celebration filled with laughter and energy.
