CHAPEL RECAP: JULY 5, 2019

BlogPop Up Chapel

Sep 19

On July 5th 2019 we held our 8th Pop-Up Chapel at The Drake Underground. This chapel was a super colourful, graphic dream inspired by the paintings of Hense The Name. With Pantones' colour of the year being Living Coral, we wanted to incorporate this into our chapel decor at every chance we could!

Our bold chapel backdrop was made by the LBL team and included three bursts of bright blooms designed by Roadside Florist. To accent our Living Coral colour palette we used a soft pink, cherry red and mustard yellow. These colours carried their way throughout the chapel in all of our signage, balloon install and even our snacks! To tie the whole ceremony space together the LBL team hand cut pieces of vinyl to line the vintage style terrazzo print floor. Couples made their way down the aisle to the musical stylings of the Toronto Jazz Collective and were #officiallyhitched by one of our fantastic officiants, Jonny & Juliana Belinko.

As always we had the Glenfiddich gifting station where each couple got to take home a bottle of 18-year-old Glenfiddich Whisky and custom-printed drams. Plus, each guest toasted the happy couple with a delicious (and totally on-brand) pink cocktail featuring 12-year-old Glenfiddich Whisky. We even had coral caramel popcorn and coral macaroons from The Drake. Each couple also had the chance to cut their very own cake, custom and adorned with fresh florals by Love in Bloom.

Our 8th Pop-Up Chapel was such a success marrying 9 beautiful couples and raising $2,700 for Save the Children and #BloomsUnited! In an effort to make the Pop-Up Chapel a sustainable event, we worked with the folks at New Dawn Org to repurpose and reuse all of our chapel florals. These made their way from The Drake to Emily's House, Toronto's only hospice for children and families facing life-threatening illnesses.
