If you’re planning a Club Roma wedding in St. Catharines, Felicia and Anthony’s day is a perfect example of how fun, emotional, and beautifully paced a wedding at this venue can be.
From a relaxed morning at home to a sparkler-filled sendoff, their wedding had all the moments I love most as a wedding photographer, genuine emotion, playful energy, and a couple who fully leaned into the joy of the day.
The day started with Anthony and his groomsmen getting ready at home, setting a laid-back and fun tone right from the beginning. One of my favourite moments of the morning was the guys literally pulling Anthony away from his computer, a perfectly “him” moment that had everyone laughing and instantly put him at ease.
These candid, unscripted moments are always some of the best parts of the story.
Meanwhile, Felicia got ready at a nearby hotel surrounded by her bridesmaids. The room was filled with excitement, laughter, and that quiet anticipation that builds as the dress goes on.
Soft light, emotional exchanges, and supportive friends made for a beautiful and relaxed getting-ready experience, exactly what you want on a wedding morning.
Once everyone arrived at Club Roma in St. Catharines, the emotions really started to flow.
Before the ceremony, Felicia shared a first look with her dad, and it was one of those moments that stops time for a second. These private first looks are incredibly meaningful, and Club Roma offers great spaces to keep them intimate and distraction-free.
The ceremony took place on a bright, sunny day, with guests soaking in the warmth and energy of the moment. Felicia and Anthony exchanged vows surrounded by friends and family, and as soon as they were pronounced married, Anthony picked Felicia up and ran her down the aisle, to cheers and laughter from everyone watching.
It was spontaneous, joyful, and perfectly them.
After the ceremony, we leaned into their playful side for portraits. One of the highlights was taking advantage of a nearby playground, where Felicia and Anthony hopped on the swings and just had fun together.
These are the kinds of portraits that feel real, full of movement, laughter, and connection, and they’re often couples’ favourites years later.
The reception was held in Club Roma’s Gemini Ballroom, which looked absolutely lovely as guests entered. The evening kicked off with a beautiful first dance, followed by heartfelt speeches that had everyone alternating between tears and laughter.
Club Roma is well known for hosting seamless receptions, and the flow of the evening made it easy for everyone to relax and celebrate fully.
To wrap up the night, Felicia and Anthony were sent off with a sparkler exit, creating a magical ending to an already unforgettable day. It was the perfect final chapter, energetic, romantic, and full of light.
