Natasha and Joey got married at Riverway Clubhouse in Burnaby at the end of this past April. It was my first time at this venue but I had heard good things and it didn't disappoint. One of my favourite things about it were the number of options for the ceremony locations. We had Plan A, Plan B and Plan C and anyone that is familiar with Vancouver weather knows how important this is! While the week leading up to the wedding, including the Thursday night rehearsal, had us excited for Plan A, the day of the wedding didn't cooperate as hoped and we had to move to Plan B. The bonus was that the ceremony still got to be outside and everyone was covered from the rain without the added cost of having to rent a tent but thankfully Natasha did pick up some fleece blankets last minute which were all used by the guests for some extra warmth.
One of the best parts about the reception area is that you basically get the entire building to yourselves and there is a lot of room for guests to move around. There are high ceilings with wooden beams and a ton of windows and natural light. A very west coast feel. And, a HUGE bonus... the chairs are actually nice so no need for chair covers (money saving alert!). They even had comfy leather chairs to use at the head table for some added elegance.
I've said it before, and I'll say it many more times... I'm a sucker for the details and Natasha and Joey did NOT disappoint! One of the easiest ways to do this, in my opinion, is to have elements from your invitations incorporated into the stationery at the wedding such as place cards and menus. Not only did they do this with their custom designed stationery from Stationery Bike Designs but they went one step further when they had Dalana from The Cake and the Giraffe include the same monogram on their four tier cake. The gorgeousness was mind blowing not to mention the sugar flowers that were on it as well. It was an absolute piece of art.
Niche Event Stylists did a gorgeous job of both decor and flowers that paired so well with the decor that Natasha and Joey provided themselves, including some homemade table numbers and an amazing distressed wooden door used as a seating chart.
Please check out Hayley Rae Photography for all the professional shots. She was a pleasure to work with, her work is beautiful and she was able to take a less than perfect weather day and make it work.
If you have any questions about these vendors or want some more information on them please let me know!
Happy planning,
