LA PRIMAVERA EVENT SPACE WEDDING IN TORONTO // F10 STUDIO
Set against a beautiful early autumn colour palette of rich reds and classic black and white, high school sweethearts Corey and Shanelle celebrated their love story with their closest family and friends at La Primavera Event Space in Toronto.
Photographer, Michael, from F10 Studio shares with us an interview for this week’s featured couple, Shanelle and Corey.
Your names and where are you both from? Corey and Shanelle Tulloch from Toronto, Ontario.
Do you mind sharing a bit of your love story and how you started your journey together? Our story began in high school back in 2010 during Drama class. I had a small crush on Corey, and Shanelle caught my eye with her adorable bangs. After graduation, life took its course, but fate brought us back together. Corey spotted one of my recent Facebook posts, reached out to a mutual friend, got my number, and the rest is history.
What was your vision for your wedding day? We envisioned a wedding that exuded elegance with various moody aspects.
What was the inspiration behind your wedding theme or colour scheme? We aimed for an all-black affair to harmonize with the moody elegance, accentuated by shades of burgundy and black.
Can you describe the wedding ceremony and any special traditions or rituals you included? The ceremony was beautifully unique; Corey and the bridal party entered to UGK's "Int’l Players Anthem (I Choose You)," while I walked down the aisle with my dad to Beyonce's "Halo" (Instrumental).
What were your favourite moments from your wedding day?
Shanelle: As the bride, cherished moments include getting ready with family and bridesmaids, walking down the aisle with my dad, seeing my husband for the first time, and exchanging our heartfelt vows.
Can you describe your wedding dress and suit? How did you choose your wedding attire?
Shanelle: My wedding dress drew inspiration from my grandmother's gown—simple yet stunning, tailored to complement my petite frame. Corey opted for a burgundy suit jacket, a choice that beautifully complements black skin.
How did you choose your wedding venue? What made it special to you? We sought a venue offering both ceremony and reception services in one place for the entire day, ensuring convenience for us and our wedding party. La Primavera Event Space perfectly fulfilled this criterion.
What did you look forward to the most on your wedding day? We looked forward to the relief of the entire wedding planning process finally coming to an end.
