Kylie and Greg had such a clear vision of what they wanted their wedding day to be, it made it joyful to pull it together with them! From hints of Harry Potter to sport analogies, to fabulous cocktail style food stations and a dance party that went all evening long!
Thank you for choosing us to bring your vision to life!

Dream Wedding at Parkwood Estates Oshawa
We started our wedding planning journey with an initial meeting with Suzanne and Kenneth to view the beautiful Parkwood Estates in Oshawa. Four months later on a warm Sunday in October we had all of our wedding dreams come true. It was a perfect day of laughter and music and elegance. Suzanne was there every step of the way from help planning, to reading my mind, to putting up with my hugs throughout our special day. Kenneth was on point with the retro music we requested; no matter what we wanted, he had it. Thank you Suzanne and Kenneth for your professionalism and expertise; and your friendship!

The world needs more couples like you! Every time I was thinking of your wedding or planning with you, Sonny & Cher's "I've Got You Babe" played in my heart. It was a beautiful evening with lots of laughs and so much love in the room! Friends forever now! Hugs and more hugs because you can never have enough!
Love, love, love the photos!

So Many Compromises
I was recently married at Parkwood Estate, which is served by Kenneth Robert Entertainment. Parkwood is stunning. You pay for the beauty, because you don’t get much else. I was told I would be the only bride, but they filled the day with other brides, telling me afterwards. I had to give up a lot to accommodate this other bride. I wasn’t able to get ready at the estate, it was given to the other bride. I was rushed through my family pictures because the other bride needed to come through where we were. They offered no financial compensation, only snacks and some lights, which were nothing special. It was either except their demands, or don’t get married there. Parkwood remains open to the public, which they do tell you, but they really make no effort to keep strangers away from the area. I walked through several tour groups on my way to the alter. It cost over 3k get married there, for 2.5 hours before they literally escort you out. Their gate damaged one of my guests cars. Pictures are beautiful. Overall experience was not.
