A Cozy Wedding at Preto Loft: Emma and Carmine

March 6th, 2024

Toronto weddings are always fun, but there's something extra special about an intimate gathering in a beautiful studio space like Preto Loft. Enter Emma and Carmine's wedding, a day I was thrilled to be a part of as a photographer. This wedding actually took place a while back when we were still holding our breath to see if we'd be able to gather or not. You may recall that restrictions were changing quickly as a certain virus was wreaking havoc on our lives. Emma & Carmine opted for the intimate guest list and cozy private dinner in Yorkville not just because they were gorgeous options, but because they were the safest at the time. It was a freezing cold day but the light shining into Preto Loft and the presence of close friends and family made this wedding feel so warm.

 

The day began at Emma and Carmine's Toronto home, where a post-workout Camine got ready with his family. Carmine was a mix of nerves and anticipation, so eager to see Emma for their first look. Emma got ready at a separate location, her eyes sparkling a little every time Carmine's name was mentioned although she seemed cool as a cucumber.

 

Preto Loft, their chosen venue, was a the perfect venue. The beautiful studio space was dripping in winter light and made a gorgeous space for an intimate gathering. It was so fun to watch friends & family reunite for the first time after months of isolation - I'm so lucky to be given this little peek into people's lives. The unplugged ceremony was thoughtfully officiated by a friend then followed by a champagne toast & some family photos. When family photos wrapped we dodged protesters to make our way to Salon Private Dining in Yorkville. The cozy dining room was packed with candles & florals and smelled INCREDIBLE. Once everyone arrived it was filled with heartfelt speeches, laughter, and tears of joy.

 

As I photographed their day, I couldn't help but feel a sense of overwhelming gratitude and I felt it again as I went through their images to make selections for this post. Emma and Carmine, thank you for opening your hearts to me, for allowing me to be a part of your special day. I hope that these photos remind you often of your love for each other, and I wish you both so much happiness. Until we meet again, xoxo.
