As we enter our fifth year of producing the WedLuxe Wedding Show, presented by Oliver & Bonacini Events and Catering and sponsored by Hudson’s Bay Gift Registry and Kleinfeld Hudson’s Bay (hosted at the Carlu in Toronto, Canada on January 10, 2016), it’s no secret that our wedding show is in a league of its own and represents the highest calibre of every spectrum in the wedding industry. Attendees can expect to experience and revel in the most luxurious treatments and services, and be inspired on an epic scale starting with ohhhhhhhh only about 50,000 beautiful fresh roses, hydrangeas and other blooms flown in from our incredible wholesale flower sponsors, Royal Flowers. (Thank you Tom and company!)
We are thrilled to announce that for the second year in a row, our official event planning partner is the consummate rock star planner Ashley Pigott of Ashley Pigott Events. We LOVE working with Ashley!
Special thanks to Peter Somers of Contemporary Furniture Rentals who has been a show partner since its inception. There are NO words to express how much of an impact his gorgeous furniture and accessories make on our show. Once again, Peter will be providing all of the furniture for our beautiful WedLuxe Experiential Spaces this year.
We’d also like to thank and introduce you to Alan Bisson of FireDog Creative who is our official show production / rigging / lighting and all-around magic-making partner.

Honestly, we think Alan and his team are genius, and they do it all with a smile! ALWAYS! Alan has been the secret weapon for TOP event planners + designers in the city for years because of his flawless ingenuity…FireDog Creative needs to be in your Rolodex!
A special shout out to Dave Clingen of Eventure Inc. who is doing all of the show draping this year! He has a beautiful inventory of product that we are excited to showcase.
With the show now just over a month away, we are thrilled to finally announce the show’s theme. Drumroll, please…
“La Dolce Vita”!
The theme “La Dolce Vita” takes inspiration from one of our favourite destinations in the world—the ever-romantic and always beautiful Italy. Our guests will celebrate and enjoy the rich indulgences of living the sweet life, as we draw visual and experiential inspiration from the lemon trees and rolling hills of Tuscany, to the turquoise waters of the Amalfi coastline, to the ornate palaces and timeless creativity of Venice and Florence.
We’d love to take you on a brief tour of the show and give you a little taste of what’s to come!
