Laura and Davey with their foreheads together among pink hydrangeas after their Toronto City Hall wedding

Toronto City Hall · July 25, 2026

A small civil ceremony with close family, then an afternoon of portraits around Nathan Phillips Square and Osgoode Hall.

Laura and Davey were married on July 25, 2026, in a civil ceremony at Toronto City Hall, with their closest family and friends around them. It was small, relaxed and full of happy tears.

We met them at City Hall just before their appointment. The ceremony was short and sweet, so we stayed close and quiet to catch the important things: Davey reading his vows from a card, the rings, Laura's smile and the first kiss.

Afterwards everyone stepped out into the sunshine on Nathan Phillips Square for hugs and family photos. Then the two of them had some time on their own, and we spent the afternoon walking around Osgoode Hall and the streets next door, finding stone arches, old brick walls and pink hydrangeas.

A City Hall wedding is one of our favourite kinds of day. It is simple, it is about the two of you, and downtown Toronto has beautiful places for portraits within a few minutes' walk. If you are planning a Toronto City Hall wedding or an elopement downtown, we would love to hear about it.
