Eight years in the making and forever to go. 2024 marked a huge step in Nina and Chris’ longtime relationship and we couldn’t have been happier for them and their families! Their wedding day represented the uniting of two incredibly supportive families whose love for Nina and Chris was so touching to document.
Nina and Chris’ story began when when Chris moved to Canada to begin his professional hockey career. Nina had no idea that say yes to ice cream with the newest player on her city’s hockey team would lead to a whirlwind of travel and adventure while Chris played hockey in three different countries and two continents! After years of dating long distance, the hockey off season in 2022 was one they never will forget. Chris proposed to Nina while on holiday in the Greek Islands.
Having their immediate family spread all over the U.S. and Canada, they decided that they would plan for a ‘destination wedding’ here in Ontario. They choose the private estate venue, Three Feathers Terrace and had their out of town guests all stay at Friday Harbour Resort. Their week-long celebration started with a mini vacay of golf and dining at Friday Harbour and ended with their celebratory black-tie wedding day at Three Feathers Terrace.
Nina had clear in her mind her wedding day vision. She enlisted the help of The Event Design Co. to execute her chic and modern black and white design. The focus was on making the day a true experience for their guests, including a sketch artist and live music during cocktail hour.
We were so honoured to photograph their wedding day as they celebrated with each other and their fam. The happy tears and joyful embraces made their modern wedding day unforgettable.
We can’t wait to see where the future takes the Martenets!! xo

We originally spoke to Morgan about their wedding plans at the beginning of 2023. We loved her vision for their wedding day - an elegant celebration focused on their families, friends and each other. She knew the day would be a quick blur so she wanted to maximize the time with her loved ones. One way she knew that would occur is by having all the events in close proximity and Hotel X Toronto was the ideal location and look to fit her vision. From getting ready to having very emotional first looks with her bridesmaids, dad, her grandparents and finally her groom-to-be, Alex, Morgan was so conscious of making memories with those she loved all day long.
Their wedding ceremony took place on Hotel X’s High Park Terrace which has clear sight lines of our beautiful Lake Ontario. Her choice of floral installations with white flowers and lots of greenery perfectly offset the blue background of the lake.
We loved her vision of taking advantage of all the aspects of getting married in a hotel, from having photos in Hotel X’s Valerie bar to the ever popular elevator shots! We finished the day feeling so appreciative for such an incredible couple who love wholeheartedly! Morgan and Alex’s wedding day will be one we will remember for a long time to come!

Romantic Garden Inspiration for Couple's Three Feathers Terrace Spring Wedding

High school sweethearts, best friends and life partners, Megan and Andrew had waiting a very long time for this day. They knew exactly how they wanted their wedding day to go: a laidback celebration with their families and long-time friends in a private setting. Both being outdoor lovers, they absolutely fell in love with both the natural surroundings and venue options Three Feathers Terrace offers. It was the perfect location for their special wedding day.
Enlisting the help of luxe wedding planner, Claudia Cole Events, they began to plan a romantic spring garden-inspired wedding day. Megan’s vision of colour complimenting the season was carefully woven through the wedding design, including stunning pastel-toned florals by the talented Posh Floral Company and reception decor featuring delicate spring blooms and tones in both the stationery and table design.
Leaving the design, coordination and planning to Claudia Cole Events’ talented team, Megan and Andrew were able to focus 100% on enjoying the day with each other and their fam. From their heartfelt first look to their joyous wedding ceremony and reception, the day was nothing but happy moments for these genuinely kind and deserving people.
We can’t thank these two enough for having us as a small part of their lifelong story!
