Wedding Academy at Omni King Edward Hotel

On March 18, 2018, we held the second of three Wedding Academy events at the Omni King Edward Hotel’s new Crystal Ballroom (love this space!!). We hosted this fun and interactive event to share wedding planning tips from top industry professionals in an interactive setting. This event had a focus on style and infusing designer ideas into your wedding day. It was so much fun and so so stunning! See some of the highlights of the event below. Details at www.wedacademy.ca.
