Old doors like these ones add so much ambiance to Wedding ceremonies. In #ThunderBay, a great location for a #Wedding would be the #PioneerVillage&FoundersMuseum, on Highway 61. https://www.oliverpaipoonge.ca/living/museums/founders-museum-pioneer-village
There is an old Church on the property where you can hold your ceremony, and this venue has a full-service, modern Kitchen for hosting your Reception.

Will just doing Greenery at my Reception be cheaper?

You're getting married, and you've come to the sad conclusion that your Floral visions and your Floral budget are far apart. Someone suggested to you..."why not just have Greenery, or just Babies' Breath? They have babies breath at the Grocery!" Florists will shudder when they hear this. Do click on the following link and read this super post on choosing Greenery for your wedding florals.

   If your wedding is in the Summer, you may think of growing your own Flowers and foilages, which is a big job, time-consuming, and weather-dependent. If you are a Gardener, this is an option. Pinch your plants so that they bush out and you get thinner stems with lots of blooms. Floret Farms is a great resource if you want to grow your own. https://www.facebook.com/floretflowers/




diy classes at The Camellia

You can DIY you own Wedding bouquets with silk greenery...here at  The Camellia, we hold DIY Wedding Flower classes. 



Napa Valley style at The Camellia


Of course, you may be tempted to raid the nearest Tree, but, and this is a big BUT... You must do some research on conditioning the stems and proper storage, otherwise your stems will wilt and your Bouquets will be all floppy. 
Stop by our store, The Camellia, and talk to Camille about your Wedding Floral visions. 
Open Wednesday through Sunday at 30, Hacquoil Rd. Slate River, On.
