REAL WEDDING Sabrina & Sam

“Our guests loved the gallery of photos sharing our love story—it was a special way to connect everyone to our journey.” -Leda, Bride

L eda and Arthur's love story began on the basketball courts at the Armenian community center in 1989, where their shared passion for the game brought them together as friends. For years, they played side by side, their bond strengthening with each shot, pass, and moment of playful competition. Although they always admired and respected one another, it wasn’t until 2015 that they realized their connection ran far deeper. What started as a friendship blossomed into a love story filled with companionship, support, and the same shared spirit that first brought them together. Arthur proposed in the most sentimental way, taking Leda back to their favorite restaurant and the place where they had their first official date. After a dinner filled with love and nostalgia, he completely surprised her with a ring at the end of the meal. On September 7, 2024, Leda and Arthur celebrated their journey with a wedding that was as timeless as it was personal, held at Hotel X Toronto, planned and designed by Edesa Doman of Petals and Pearls. The ceremony featured a breathtaking custom 12-foot floral structure and a mirrored aisle lined with delicate flowers and glowing candles. Leda’s three bridal looks were as dazzling as the celebration itself. She began the day in a gown from Superior Bridal, transitioning into an elegant Ines di Santo gown for the reception, and ended the evening with a chic, custom short dress for dancing. Each look was accessorized with custom jewelry from her own collection, and she wore two pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes: a white pair with blue initials embroidered on the back for the ceremony and a bold red pair for the party. Arthur looked effortlessly dapper in a perfectly tailored Tom Ford suit from Harry Rosen, paired with sleek patent leather Louboutins.

SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY After the ceremony, guests were invited to explore a beautifully curated gallery showcasing Leda and Arthur’s love story through meaningful photos and mementos. The gallery space also featured the seating chart. From there, the reception space unfolded like a dream.
