Yah.....soooo exciting! As play and learn says, everything depends on what you are after! Fancy over the top princess? Intimate family gathering? Backyard BBQ? We had an outdoor ceremony and an elegant lunch reception for 45 at a historic inn. We are both fairly old (ha ha) and our daughter was 5 months at the time and we really didn't want to spend our life savings. It was simple but very romantic and we paid cash so have no 'after party' regret! My best advice is to make it all about the 2 of you and let any unwanted opinions slide off your back! I live in the GTA too and got married less than 2 years ago so feel free to pm if you want to know anything that we did.
