Personal vows under a floral arch: a garden wedding at The Granite Brewery, Toronto
The Granite Brewery · September 1, 2024
Seryal and Jackson were married on September 1, 2024, at The Granite Brewery in Toronto, with an outdoor ceremony in the garden and a warm, relaxed reception inside.
We started with portraits by the floral arch before the guests arrived, which gave the two of them some quiet time together. There were plenty of laughs and a few sweet moments under the veil.
The ceremony was personal and full of heart. Both of them read their own vows, the two youngest members of the wedding party stole the show on the way down the aisle, and the first kiss had everyone cheering.
Inside, the brewery's brick walls and warm lights set the scene for toasts, speeches, the cake and a first dance.
If you are planning a garden ceremony or a relaxed brewery wedding in Toronto, we would love to hear about your day.

Portraits in the garden
Before the guests arrive, Seryal and Jackson have the brewery garden to themselves. A few quiet minutes by the floral arch, a boutonniere to straighten, and a lot of laughing.
Then, under the veil.

The ceremony
Family walks each of them down the aisle under the trees. They read vows they wrote themselves, the rings go on, and the garden cheers. We work candid and quiet from the edges, so every reaction is real.
And then, the vows.
“Jo did a great job with our wedding photography. He was very professional and super easy to work with. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. Every shot felt so natural and emotional. Plus, the turnaround time was really fast! Highly recommend working with him.”

The celebration
Inside the brewery the room turns warm: a toast, speeches, a cake against the brick wall, and a first dance that pulls everyone onto the floor.
Then the first dance.
