Jewel Tone Beauty BRIDE & GROOM: Bridget & Christopher Sullivan WEDDING DATE: October 10th, 2020 LOCATION: Best Western PLUS Stoneridge Inn & Conference Centre (♥) (www.stoneridgeinn.com) & The Rose Chapel (www.rosechapel.ca), London, ON "We wanted a smaller intimate venue and one that could host both the ceremony and reception. When we toured the Rose Chapel and Stoneridge reception space we were sold. Both spaces were exactly what we were looking for and were unique to other wedding venues in the London area. Natalie made our experience so easy and enjoyable. She was always quick to respond to any questions we had, especially throughout the pandemic when there were so many unknowns and changing restrictions, she always kept us updated. Stoneridge did a fantastic job managing the restrictions during the wedding. Our guests felt safe but also were able to have a great time. We are so thankful to Natalie and her team for everything they did for us during our journey." - B&C 14 •The Wedding Ring Magazine | www.theweddingring.ca
PHOTOGRAPHY: Melissa Kerry Photography (@melissakerryphotography) London, ON ORIGINAL GUEST #: 120 ORIGINAL PLAN: “Our original vision was very similar to how our wedding turned out. The biggest change was the number of guests. We booked the Best Western Stoneridge Inn at the end of February just prior to COVID shutting everything down. I feel like if we hadn’t booked the venue prior to COVID it would have delayed our plans.” – B COLOUR PALETTE: Jewel tones with greenery BRIDE ATTIRE: Lavender Bridal (www.lavenderbridal.ca) London, ON HAIR: Hair by Amanda Fleming (@hairbyamandafleming) London, ON MAKEUP: Top Knots + Gloss (www.topknotsandgloss.com) London, ON FAVOURS: Pristine Olive (www.thepristineolive.ca) London, ON DÉCOR: Tulle Tyme (www.tulletyme.ca) London, ON FLORAL: McLennan Flowers

Chris was working as a plumber and I was on the administrative team who was in the onsite trailer prior to moving into the building. Chris tells me that he first noticed me when I would come and go from the trailer. It wasn’t until we moved inside the building that I saw him. On his last day onsite we chatted and then a bit later he messaged me on Facebook and asked for my number. He asked me to a London Lightning basketball game and we have been together ever since. Family Day 2020 Chris and I went to his sister’s cottage up north. While snowmobiling on the middle of the lake, he proposed and it was so beautiful!" – B&C •
