A magazine for the Canadian wedding

Planning a wedding in Canada is its own art. It means knowing that a June Saturday in southern Ontario is booked 18 months out, that a marriage licence in Quebec is a different animal than one in Alberta, or that in half this country the word "outdoor" carries a clause about wind.

VOW exists because the Canadian wedding deserved its own publication, not a national edition of someone else's, but a magazine written by the people who actually work these rooms. Every article in this issue comes from a member of the WedCanada collective: planners, photographers, florists, chefs, DJs and officiants who have spent their careers in Canadian venues, in Canadian weather, with Canadian budgets.

You will not find rankings here, or endless numbered lists, or 100 ways to fold a napkin. What you will find is the thinking behind the decisions: why the venue comes first, what a contract actually protects, where money disappears, and how a room full of people who barely know each other becomes, for one night, a single crowd.

We publish 3 times a year. This first issue took a country to write it.
