A Glamorous Graydon Hall Wedding in Toronto, Ontario

Siobhan Mitchell and Mitch O'Keefe may have gotten engaged at a castle in Slovenia, but they didn't need to look far from home for an equally grand setting. Graydon Hall was selected to host their glamorous wedding ceremony and reception. "It provided us with the perfect mix of whimsical romanticism with a formal yet intimate dining space reflecting our love of heritage homes," says Siobhan of the sprawling manor, which appears to have sprung from the pages of The Great Gatsby. Siobhan's bridesmaids were suitably dressed in glittering Sue Wong frocks for the glamorous Graydon Hall wedding, though no one could upstage the bride herself, resplendent in an ethereal gown by Creations Venezia and a killer pair of Christian Louboutin pumps. After a garden ceremony -- accompanied by a violinist -- the glamorous Graydon Hall wedding continued in the manor's stately dining room, complete with a fireplace and chandeliers. To make the place feel like home, Siobhan and Mitch displayed framed family photos for their guests to view throughout the festivities. "Some of the people in the photos were with us for our celebration, others only in spirit. We aim to carry on their legacy throughout our marriage," says Siobhan. As another loving touch to the glamorous Graydon Hall wedding, Siobhan's parents lent the newlyweds the cake topper they used at their own wedding in 1983. A celebration of love and family, the glamorous Graydon Hall wedding was the perfect way for Siobhan and Mitch to begin their new life together.
