The summer season has always been filled with some of the brightest and most joyful memories we make throughout our lives. From the cool summer breeze to the boundless sky, and everything in between; the summer season at the apex of the year brings out of us an affirmation of life, a time of change, and a window into what brings us all together. Not to mention some spectacular videography and cinematography for our cameras. So for us here at SDE Weddings®, Toronto’s premier wedding videography, cinematography, and photo-booth group, it would be an absolute delight to work on Tabitha & Sean’s superlative summer season wedding day just this past July 22nd, 2017; in an unforgettable wedding ceremony held at Toronto’s Metropolitan United Church, and a truly remarkable and unique reception and celebration held at the Toronto Reference Library just north of Yonge & Bloor, right at the heart of Toronto. A genuinely unique ensemble of venues, especially the choice of the Toronto Reference Library, would make for excellent and unique footage for our videographers and cinematographers to work with. Coupled with the brilliant summer day and a bright and brilliant future, Tabitha & Sean’s wedding day was truly perfect in every way, from every vantage point captured by our videographers and cinematographers. So join us as we recall some of our most treasured memories from Tabitha & Sean’s wedding day, and take a look at one of our videographers’ and cinematographers’ most favourite and most creative summer season weddings to date.

Here are some frame grabs from the highlight video made by our wedding videographers. Sean got ready in the morning with his groomsmen at the Cambridge Club, and a bit of whisky was involved. Tabitha got ready at the Marriott Hotel with her ladies, and her MOH gifted her a thoughtful wedding present.Our work on Tabitha & Sean’s summer season wedding day began for our videographers and cinematographers with a visit to the bride and groom to film the couple’s morning preparations; at the Toronto Marriott Bloor Yorkville Hotel. A favourite of ours from the morning’s preparations would be the breathtaking view outside of Sean’s hotel window that overlooked Toronto’s City Hall, emblematic of the couple’s roots in this magnificent city. Juxtaposing both bride and groom as they prepared for their journey ahead, our videographers and cinematographers assembled many exciting and joyful scenes of Tabitha & Sean sharing smiles with their bridesmaids and groomsmen respectively, sharing gifts and giving a toast to the truly life-changing occasion ahead for the couple. Another special scene that features prominently in our highlight reel is the couple’s first look and first kiss of the day. And with an exclusive look from our videographers and cinematographers of Toronto’s Metropolitan United Church, of a beautiful wedding aisle adorned with candlelight, and picturesque stained-glass windows, our videographers and cinematographers would greet Tabitha & Sean to the wedding ceremony which would begin the rest of their lives together. In a truly special moment, Tabitha & Sean would become husband and wife, an incredible memory captured in full by our videographers and cinematographers, which you can preview in our included highlight reel.

The ceremony took place at the beautiful Metropolitan United Church in Toronto. Before the start of the ceremony, Tabitha had a first look with her dad at the basement of the Church.And with a life and future sealed with a grand ceremony, our videographers and cinematographers would follow the happy newlyweds, Tabitha & Sean, as they proceeded to their wedding day reception and celebration, a truly unique event held in a novel event space; the Toronto Reference Library just north of Yonge & Bloor, at The Bram & Bluma Appel Salon, a brilliant event space nestled comfortably within the library. A novel experience for our videographers and cinematographers to film at a library that’s been reshaped for an evening to be the centre stage for a newlywed couple’s unforgettable wedding night celebration, the transformation of the traditional library space into a wedding’s banquet hall would be a magical one. With specially fashioned stationeries prepared for the guests, immaculate floral arrangements for each dining table, a gorgeously fashioned front hall for the newlyweds, and a perfectly spacious ballroom setup for Tabitha & Sean to set the evening’s mood with a sentimental first dance. And as the night grew longer, many more guests would join Tabitha & Sean in dance and celebration. A genuinely unforgettable and perfect wedding day captured in full by our videographers and cinematographers from beginning to end. And to close our highlight reel, an absolutely perfect shot that’s only possible in such a unique venue space; Tabitha & Sean sharing an evening’s kiss from high upon the reference library’s famous atrium, a hauntingly beautiful scene to begin Tabitha & Sean’s lives as husband and wife.

After the ceremony, we traveled to St. James Park for the photoshoot.

Following the photoshoot, we traveled to the Toronto Reference Library for the reception.And with that, we here at SDE Weddings®, Toronto’s premier wedding videography, cinematography and photo-booth group, would like to congratulate Tabitha & Sean on an incredibly wonderful wedding day ceremony and celebration. We wish the newlyweds all the very best in their future together, and would like to thank them for giving our videographers and cinematographers the incredible opportunity of filming and producing a specially made film of their wedding day. We wish Tabitha & Sean all the very best in their lives together, and hope that our work with them will always be a testament to the true love that they share, a love that’s truly one for the books.

In the evening, we got a chance to shoot some really interesting images at the Toronto Reference Library.Wedding Vendors:
