In a story that feels like a destined romance, Christine and Djo first crossed paths in Toronto, during the TFC home opener in 2020, just days before the city entered lockdown. Christine was briefly back from her job in China, savoring family time, while Djo was relishing a night out with friends at BMO Field. The two connected while celebrating their team’s win, sparking a journey that would later lead to a surprise proposal surrounded by family. In a beautifully sentimental setup of rose petals, candlelight, and a heartfelt “Marry Me?” sign, Djo made his intentions clear with his family flying in from South Africa to witness the magic.
Christine and Djo’s glamorous Toronto wedding was nothing short of magical. Their design theme incorporated a soft palette of whites, beiges, golds, and delicate light pinks, with texture woven throughout the décor, from the velvet invitations and menus to plush furnishings. Elegant chandeliers and candlelit tables transformed the space into a warm, romantic haven while floor-to-ceiling drapery created an intimate feel. Every detail was meticulously personalized with monograms—gracing napkins, stir sticks, and even shawls. And to add to the festive spirit, a fireworks display delighted guests, tying the celebration to the Victoria Day holiday.
