Capturing A Moment | LiUNA Celebrates with Nadia and Nicholas

After waiting two years to say ‘I Do’ Nadia and Nicholas’ reception was a total dream come true! Playing off the ballroom’s timeless décor with muted tones, greenery and floral arch they created a space of pure elegance. We couldn’t wait to catch up with them and talk about all the little details that went into their special day!

Tell us a bit about your event you hosted at LiUNA Station!

We had our wedding on October 2, 2021. After a two year engagement with a pandemic in the middle, we were so excited to finally have so many friends and friends in the same room to celebrate. Our ceremony took place at the Cathedral Basilica of Christ the King. Reception took place in the Grand Ballroom at LiUNA Station. We had a bar inside the room to ensure guests had easy access during dinner. We had long tables and round tables to give some dimension to the room.

What were some of the sources of inspiration behind the look and feel of your event?

No specific inspiration, we wanted to keep it timeless and elegant to play off of the charm of the venue. We used a lot of muted fall tones and greenery to brighten up the space. We wanted to frame the head table with a floating flower arch. We added in tall flower arrangements on the long tables to add height. We also included lots of candles down the long tables to give a romantic ambience.

Share with us your number one couldn’t live without décor piece or tastiest food option from our catered menu!

We are never disappointed by the Antipasto Bar! So much selection and always so fresh. Another fan favourite was that we ordered McDonald’s Junior Chickens and Cheeseburgers as part of the late night buffet.

What is the one piece of advice you would give someone planning their big day!

Don’t sweat the small stuff – take time during the day to look around and soak it all in! Make sure you have a photo checklist – to provide your photographers with.

What moment during your event will forever be etched into your memory?

Our final song was by Celine Dion, ‘It’s All Coming Back to Me Now’ singing at the top of our lungs with our closest friends and family. It was epic and I still watch the videos back.

Tell us all your secrets! Your event was so beautiful and we must know your vendor list!

2018 Corporate Event Trends

PLAY — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 13:53:11 +0000

Although we may not like to admit it, September is just around the corner. For many people, September means that the vacation is over, and it’s time to head back to work! Don’t let the return to reality get you down. There is a lot to look forward to – and at Liuna Station we’re here to help you get back into the groove of things as you plan your next corporate event.

Coroprate events don’t need to be –and frankly shouldn’t be boring! So get out of the office, and see what Liuna Station has to offer you and your colleagues, clients or customers. Our space is the perfect location for your next work event whether it be for seminars, team building, customer appreciation events or anything in between.

We are constantly staying on top of the latest trends in the event space and want to share some ideas with you as you plan your next corporate event with Liuna Station.

Get Social!

Get people talking about your event with a unique hashtag. Encourage participants to “check in” or live stream.

Trendy and Tasty!

Excellent food is always trending. Work with Liuna Station to perfect the ideal menu for your event.

Lighten up a Little!

Depending on the nature of your event, it might be appropriate to add some fun and interactive components to your agenda – perhaps a magician, dancers or live entertainment.

Capture the Moment!

Who doesn’t love a selfie? Encourage people to snap photos – it can be a great ice breaker to find someone in the room you don’t know, and say cheese!

Network, Network, Network!

Now, more than ever, people want to connect. Key-note speakers and panelists can be great additions to a corporate event, but consider including that interactive component that lets people meet, and learn from each other. When you give people the opportunity to connect, great things happen!

We’d love to host you at Luna Station, so when you think “corporate event”, think Liuna Station.

Plan Your Special Day with AMV Weddings: Mini Interview

PLAY — Wed, 22 Aug 2018 16:56:06 +0000

Creating your dream wedding has evolved over the years. Couples are able to truly relive their special day for years to come. Working with trusted vendors who provide high quality services is something we take pride in at LIUNA Station. We recently caught up with Nevada Kelly, Wedding Coordinator from AMV Weddings who provides wedding photography, videography and DJ services in the Hamilton, Toronto and Niagara area. Check out our mini interview below on how AMV Weddings can help your upcoming special day.

LS: Can you tell us a bit about AMV Weddings, and your role in the company?

NK: AMV is not just a video, and photo company – we are a “Wedding Production House.” Our experienced team of Event Coordinators, DJs, Photographers and Videographers will help plan, produce and capture your wedding with the perfect balance of creativity and professionalism. AMV understands how important this day is to you – and our commitment to understanding the unique needs of your wedding ensures you’ll be able to remember and re-experience your wedding at the highest possible quality.

I am one of the event coordinators with the company, I have been with AMV for over 3 years and absolutely love my job! My role starts right at the beginning when I get to meet all of our bride and grooms at the beginning of their wedding planning. At AMV every package can be customized to the bride and grooms personal needs and expectations. Once the package is created we schedule engagement shoots, bridal shower shoots, planner meetings and make sure our bride and grooms are completely ready for the big day! And then lights camera action and our team shows up ready to capture all of their wedding memories. LS: As technology continues to evolve, what do you foresee in the wedding photography, videography and entertainment industry?

NK: We see it getting better and better every year. At AMV we strive to keep learning and evolving with the technology. We have numerous seminars with our team to make sure we understand and know how to use the amazing new technology offered to us. We have been in the business for over 15 years and we cannot wait to see the new technology that comes with every year. You never know maybe one day instead of same day edits we will be doing bride and groom holographic images.

LS: For readers looking for entertainment /photography support, what do you suggest to look for prior to booking?

NK: We at AMV cannot stress this enough make sure that the vendor you are hiring has back up photographers/videographers/DJs on call for your big day and also back up equipment. We have heard horror stories where the team does not show up on the day of the wedding because of sickness or whatever it may be so that is why we always have on call staff and back up gear ready for every event. This is a one time event so better safe then sorry it was we always say.

LS: What are key features AMV Weddings provides for people who need your services for their wedding day?

NK: We provide not only reliability and amazing quality but we also our known for our amazing Same Day Edits where we allow our bride and grooms to choose a song and we edit a glimpse of their mornings, ceremony, photo shoot and first dance and actually show it that day!! We also always have two photographers and two videographers for every couple so we do not miss a thing. Our event coordinators also help with the planning of your day and make sure we assign the best team for your unique wedding needs.

LS: With so many weddings companies in the GTHA, what sets AMV Weddings apart from others?

NK: Unlike other wedding companies we believe every bride and grooms has their own unique vision and look for their wedding day so we make sure we schedule the right photographers or videographers for the job. Most companies also do not have back up teams on call or back of gear ready to go at any time on your big day. The main difference is reliably and quality!

LS: Can you share with us your favourite event you supported at LIUNA Station?

NK: We have done so many events at LIUNA Station it would definitely be hard to pick only one! We would say every wedding/event at LIUNA Station is our favourite we love working with the amazing teams at LIUNA Station.

LS: With all your years of experience in the wedding industry, what is the biggest lesson AMV Weddings has learned?

NK: Since we have been in the industry for over 15 years we have seen a lot and learned even more. The most important thing that we have learned is you can never have enough people on call and that every wedding is unique and different so you should treat it as such.

We’d like to thank Nevada for taking the time to chat with us, check out AMV Weddings on Instagram and Facebook.

Dreamy Lakeside Views Made a Bride and Grooms Wedding Vision Come True!

PLAY — Fri, 10 Aug 2018 19:53:21 +0000

It’s true, you don’t need to travel down south to get a dreamy beach wedding. GTHA residents have the luxury of driving a short distance to make their dreamy beach wedding come true at LIUNA! We recently caught up with past LIUNA Gardens couple Melvin and Carmela Gool, to ask them about their experience with us, favourite memory, and one word that best describes our staff who worked alongside them to make their dreamy beach wedding a reality.
LG: What made you chose LIUNA Gardens for your wedding?
CG: Mel and I had a beach themed wedding, and LIUNA Gardens had the perfect ambiance with the waterfront view.
LG: How was your experience working with LIUNA Gardens and other vendors to create your spectacular day?
CG: LIUNA was very accommodating with all our request. Since we were not able to attend the food tasting Valentines event, Nicole was able to arrange food tasting for us. From the patio set up, late night menu, last minute additional request for cocktail hour. Nicole was very professional and responded in a very timely manner.
LG: How were your on-site venue coordinators the day of?
CG: Nicole and her team were amazing. We were lucky to be able to set up a day prior to the wedding. The LIUNA Gardens team was on site during set up day. Salman, from the food tasting to the actual wedding day, he was very hands on.
LG: What was your favourite memory about your LIUNA Gardens Wedding?
CG: The entire wedding experience. It would not have been a successful wedding if it was not for the LIUNA Gardens Team. From the event planning with Nicole, to Salman who made sure everything was on point, to the culinary team who executed an amazing meal, to the banquet crew who was very friendly and professional.
LG: What is ONE word that you would use to describe your entire experience at LIUNA Gardens?
CG: Amazing!
We’d like to thank the gorgeous couple, Melvin and Carmela for sharing their dreamy beach love story and gifting us with the opportunity to host one of the most magical day of their lives. We wish them a lifetime of happiness!

‘Trust Your Photographer, Enjoy the Process and Open Up’ – Alexandra Del Bello

PLAY — Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:50:34 +0000

Our most cherished memories hang on the walls of our homes, these images remind us of all the special things we have done, and the loved ones we have shared our favourite moments with. But what goes into capturing the perfect snap shot takes a lot of prep, finesse and passion. We recently caught up with the lovely and talented Alexandra of Alexandra Del Bello Photography to chat about her favourite place to shoot at LIUNA, how she prepares for client’s big day, and how she keeps it light while shooting!

LS: What is one of your favourite spots to shoot at LIUNA Station?

ADB: Without question, my favourite spot to shoot at LIUNA Station is the buildings front façade. The entrance way commands attention with large Doric columns and stone carvings. It serves as an elegant backdrop for both wedding parties and intimate newlywed portraits. One of the best features of this location is revealed later in the evening. As the sun begins to set, the front of the station is positioned perfectly to take in the golden hour, while utilizing the warm glow produced at this time for some additional couples portraits.

LS: How do you get ready for the day of a big shoot?

ADB: The day before each wedding I begin by reaching out to my couple one last time with final advice, well wishes, and virtual hugs. From there I begin my wedding prep. I start by cleaning and charging all of my equipment. I then print out copies of the wedding timeline and any additional documents that may be needed (family formal shot list, location permits etc.). Last, I pack a bag of snacks and water bottles for both my assistant and I to snack on throughout the day.

LS: What makes for a smooth session with Bride, Groom and wedding party?

ADB: The key to a smooth session regardless of whom is in front of my lens, is comfort. By creating an atmosphere on the day of a shoot, that allows for a subject to let loose and be comfortable, genuine reactions and expressions come out. Laughter and Dad jokes always help with this!

LS: Do you always have a back-up plan for weather, equipment failure, etc.?

ADB: It is extremely important to have a back up plan, especially when it comes to weddings. Keeping this in mind, I chat with all couples ahead of time to establish a rain plan, should there be inclement weather come the day they are wed. I also bring multiple clear umbrellas with me to all shoots. Should there be light rain that is manageable to photograph in, I encourage my couples and their wedding party to stick it out and utilize the umbrellas. When it comes to my equipment I always bring back up gear to weddings.

LS: What is something Brides and Grooms (and other clients) should know when working with you?

ADB: I love to capture joy and genuine smiles in my images. That said, I’m not afraid to crack a ridiculous joke or do a silly dance if it means I’m going to get some laughter and real smiles in response. My biggest piece of advice for couples pertaining to their photography would be to trust your photographer, enjoy the process and open up. Just be yourself! It makes for raw, real imagery that is unique to you and your relationship.

Simple, elegant or over the top, whatever the style your going for, working with a florist is key to creating that perfect piece(s) for your event. We caught up with Sue Dodd from The Watering Can to discuss trends, inspiration and how being open to ideas is key when working with your floral designer.

SD) Be open and allow the designers some creative freedom- it’s all in the details.

We received a last minute call from hospice and every team member stopped in their tracks to be a part of this day. This memory, though simple, is still very dear to our hearts.

LS) What are your favourite pieces to work with at an event?

Behind the Scenes of Rose + Nicholas Gatsby Miami Inspired Wedding

PLAY — Thu, 05 Jul 2018 19:13:53 +0000

Lights, camera, action! We are star struck from our recent mini interview with LIUNA bride Rose and groom Nicholas. We recently caught up with Rose, who filled us in on her big screen proposal, gave us the behind the scenes details of her Gatsby Miami themed wedding, and why she recommends LIUNA Station to family and friends for any upcoming special event!

Wedding date: April 21, 2018

LS: Tell us a little bit about yourself and your husband?

RM: Nicholas and I are a fun loving, down to earth couple that loves to go on adventures! We are the happiest when we are surrounded by our family and friends.

LS: How did Nicholas pop the question?

RM: My husband made our proposal very special. He secretly worked behind the scenes and made a short film which he inserted into the previews of a current movie. We went to the movie theatre like any normal Saturday. Nicholas made sure that we got to the movies really early so we could get good seats. As we waited for the previews to start he was all nervous and jittery. We patiently waited. Then all of sudden he was on the big screen, I can’t even remember what was said in the video, but there was my leading man down on one knee!

LS: There are so many wedding and event venues out there – what made LIUNA Station stand out among the rest?

RM: Out of all the venues we researched LIUNA made us feel that they were going to take care of all of our needs. They answered all of our questions and calmed all of our concerns. Also LIUNA is absolutely beautiful and fit our theme Gatsby Miami nights perfectly!

LS: Tell us about your experience working with your suppliers/vendors?

RM: All of my vendors were a dream to work with. Each and every vendor took the time to listen to our thoughts and concerns. They ensured we worked as a team to make the day perfect. My wedding planner Vivian was simply amazing. She ensured all my ideas came to life in the most amazing way. She coordinated the entire day!

LS: Describe the meal that was served on your wedding day?

RM: We had the premium antipasto bar to start. The pasta was fazzolletti served in a Genovese sauce, entree was a fillet mignon served with a jumbo prawn, wild mushroom risotto and grilled veggies. Our dessert was a double chocolate caramel cheesecake. Everything was so delicious, I wouldn’t have changed any of the details of the menu! Nicholas drink was a Manhattan and mine was a Aperol Spritz.

LS: Drooling…

LS: Describe the quality of service you received at LIUNA Station?

RM: Honestly, everything on the big day was perfect! All LIUNA staff members made sure everything was executed without a hitch.

LS: Looking back, what would you say is your favourite memory from your special day?

RM: Every time Nicholas and I think back to our wedding day, we always talk about the first time we saw each other at the church. It was one of the most emotional part of our day. We were celebrating our love for one another in front of all our family and friends.

LS: Would you recommend LIUNA Station to a friend for his or her next event? If so, why?

RM: Absolutely! LIUNA worked with my husband and I to make our day so special. The staff ensured all the details were perfect.

Sabrina’s Brunch and Bubbly Bridal Shower

PLAY — Thu, 05 Jul 2018 19:13:12 +0000

It is truly magically to see when a bride’s vision comes to life at LIUNA Gardens. We are still in awe of last week’s Pinterest inspired bridal shower. We recently caught up with bride-to-be Sabrina, who filled us in on her experience at LIUNA Gardens, including her talented squad that created a truly Insta ready brunch and bubbly bridal shower. Read our mini interview below to get the details. Needless to say, we are excited to host Sabrina and Daniel’s upcoming wedding in September!
Bridal Shower Date: June 24, 2018
LG: Tell us a little bit about yourself and your husband?
SC: I’m a registered nurse on labour and delivery at St. Joseph’s healthcare. My fiancé Daniel owns his own martial arts studio, Global Martial Arts Academy. We went to the same elementary school and high school, but never spoke to each other until we were well out of university. He messaged me on Facebook one day asking me to go out for coffee, and 15 months later we were engaged!
LG: How did Daniel pop the question?
SC: I don’t like a lot of attention, so he proposed in our family room on New Year’s Eve. And then we went and spent the rest of the night celebrating with family and friends 🙂
LG: There are so many special event venues out there – what made LIUNA Gardens stand out among the rest for your Bridal Shower?
SC: I chose LIUNA because I loved the location right near the water. And the fact that we had the opportunity to use the patio to have an outdoor feel vs. just a hall. Unfortunately it was raining but it was still a beautiful day 🙂

LG: Describe the meal that was served on your Bridal Shower?
SC: I love going out for brunch so I new that’s exactly what I wanted. My theme was brunch and bubbly. So we had mimosas, smoothies, omelettes, waffles, and every type of breakfast food you could think of!

LG: Describe the quality of service you received at LIUNA Gardens?
SC: The quality of service LIUNA Gardens gave was above all others. They let my mom go in early at 7 am to start setting up with my bridesmaids and family. Everything was so organized and they listened to all of my wants and needs and carried them out to perfection.
LG: Looking back, what would you say is your favourite memory from your special day?
SC: My favourite part of the day was looking out at all my family and friends that were there to support me. It was a big shower of 140 ladies, and it’s so nice to know I have so many loved ones in one room.

LG: Would you recommend LIUNA Gardens to a friend for his or her next event? If so, why?
SC: Of course I would recommend LIUNA Gardens to friends and family! The quality of food is always spectacular and they were so accommodating! And of course the location is beautiful!
A special shout out to Sabrina’s Mom who started collecting decorations as soon as Sabrina and Daniel got engaged on December 31 2016. All of Sabrina’s Pinterest ideas came to life thanks to her Mom and support from her bridal party. As a FYI her Mom made the paper flower wall, and each flower took 45 minutes to prep! Don’t ever underestimate the power of a Mother’s love 🙂
Check out the wonderful vendors who helped make Sabrina’s Pinterest Inspired Bridal Shower come to life!

Hair & Makeup: Makeup Worx, @makeupworx_meghan and @makeupworx_ ashley
Photographer: Rob Anzit, @robanzitphotography
