Ok, I’m assuming that you’re here because you’re looking for a wedding show to attend in Toronto (and you like indie music). My first question to you is:
After you have said your vows, it is time to make it official by signing the marriage license (also called wedding registry). Your wedding license is government issued and signed by the wedding officiant, the married couple and witnesses (usually the best man and maid of honour). The signing usually takes 2-4 minutes and it is pretty standard for music to be quietly played during this time. 
These days it seems like at least 50% of weddings are using 
Michelle’s thoughts: They offer “green” wedding services, as well as a natural and lush backdrop that doesn’t require much decorating (it’s beautiful already!).
Michelle’s thoughts: It’s right in the city and is full of lovely little nooks and crannies and interesting architectural details that can make for some great photos! Slideshow of a wedding that she shot there can be seen 
Michelle’s thoughts: An airy, open and well-lit space that also features industrial architecture and has since been converted to a community space that shows and supports local artists.
Michelle’s thoughts: Lovely, classic and intimate. Plus, the French cuisine is sublime!
Rohan’s thoughts: I like the fairy ride over to the facility and the view of the city from the Island is spectacular. It’s an old building with a lot of character and can cater small and medium and larger events. The grounds are very nice for an outdoor ceremony and offers great options for indoors. I also found that there were a lot of great options for wedding photos, not to mention that the facility can only cater to one wedding at a time so there will be that intimacy. The only down side is that you have to be sponsored by someone who is a member of the Yacht club if you want to have your wedding there, and your guests have to come and go by water taxi.
Rohan’s thoughts: It’s an old church that has been converted to an event facility. It has a lot if character. I’ve seen the full gamut of events there, from weddings to film and music videos to art shows. It’s a very versatile space that can be tailored to suit your needs. I also like the fact that it’s located on Queen street East so it’s very accessible by car and the neighborhood offers good photo taking options.
Justin’s thoughts: This venue is on the smaller side but it is the first free school in Ontario. The building is historical, beautiful and located just a short streetcar ride from downtown.
Justin’s Thoughts: This is one of the larger unique spaces for weddings in the city. Although the distillery district is a bit of a touristy area, there is a good reason for this. I am drawn to historical spaces and I love the industrial chic feel of this room. Since it is large, there are many ways that the room can be configured.
Justin’s thoughts: This Arts and Crafts styled house is a beautiful space with an amazing property. If your looking for a venue with interesting architecture, is not quite urban, but still within the city limits, then the Miller Lash House is the place for you.
The garter toss isn’t a super popular tradition at most of the weddings that I DJ, but for those of you are going to have a garter toss, below is a list of some alternative garter toss songs. I’ve broken the songs into different categories to make it easier for you (click the link to view a YouTube video of the song):
You just got married! Now it’s time to walk back down the aisle with your spouse, but what song do you want to celebrate with? I feel that a recessional wedding song should be lively and happy and make you feel good. It is also great if there is a slight build up at the beggining of your recessional song as this will give you a few seconds to turn and face your guests. In my typical style, I have included a few songs from different genres of wedding music for your wedding recession. Listen to any of the songs by clicking the link and I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
