Winter Wedding at Steam Whistle Brewing

Thomas & Erica met as students at Western University. Both valuing friends and family more than anything, they became friends first during their studies. Thomas comes from a family of 8 siblings, and Erica from a family of 4. As time went on at Western, their friendship evolved into their incredible relationship that it is today. They spent their day surrounded by their loving family and friends and celebrated their love on a perfect winter day in the city.

The perfect winter details

Thomas' love letter

Thomas wrote Erica a letter and sealed it with The Hand of The King, a reference to their love of Game of Thrones.

Erica’s best friends from Western came into her hotel room to wish her the best before she walked down the aisle.
