Certified wedding planners of the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada (WPIC) had the opportunity to have the annual Sandals Resorts training at the exclusive members-only Mississaugua Golf and Country Club. We were treated to an amazing and delicious 3-course lunch during the training session… it was hard to focus after that!
We got to learn about all the Sandals and Beaches Resort properties. The photos in the catalogue are just amazing, if only we could instantly transport ourselves! Each property has tons of activities to keep you, your spouse/partner, friends, bridal party, wedding guests, and children busy! Enjoy world class dining options already included in your Luxury Sandals Vacation!

Alright, so, yes, I’m a wedding planner. And I don’t want a wedding. (This totally sounds like I’m in some weird anti-wedding club, but I’m not!)
WHAT?!? (You exclaim in frustration and shock).
Don’t get me wrong. I LOVE WEDDINGS. However, this is not about a wedding. This is about a MARRIAGE. These two things are completely different concepts, and this is probably one of the factors that lead to separation and divorce. 50% of marriages end in divorce! Isn’t that a shocking statistic?! What happened to the whole institution of marriage?! If communication fails, the marriage fails.
BTW, as an added note, I’m SO PRO for GAY-MARRIAGE.
So let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of why I don’t want a wedding:
Please do not take my reasons as reasons why YOU shouldn’t have a wedding. If you’re in a better/strong financial position to throw a small gathering to a big bash, then definitely go for it! If you can’t live without your white bridal Louboutins, then go buy them.
However, these are personal reasons for me and my fiance. We are really simple people who have loved each other for 12 years and will continue to love each other for the rest of our lives.
Trump Toronto is one of the luxury hotels in Downtown Toronto and just over a year old since it opened its doors on January 31, 2012. This past Saturday was the first ever Wedding Showcase at this hotel. Prior to entering the hotel, I could see the glitz, the glam, and the luxury.
Honoured guests for the wedding showcase were greeted warmly at the revolving doors and directed to the lifts to take them to the 9th floor. Staff were on hand to greet you with complimentary coat check, and a goodie bag filled with information about hosting your wedding at Trump Toronto, a copy of the latest WedLuxe Magazine issue, and some chocolates from the STOCK Restaurant Chocolate Lab.
One ballroom was set up for a ceremony that can accommodate 160+ guests with a beautiful altar. Another ballroom was set up with a dance floor, headtable, and guest tables.
Trump Toronto went all out and had amazing passed hor d’oeuvres, complimentary drinks with sampling of Proseco, and lots of sweet samples from the Chocolate Lab!
The wonderful and amazing Queen of weddings, Jane Dayhus-Hinch herself of Wedding S.O.S. was available for a meet and greet in the Presidential Suite on the 30th floor.
