Maxine walked down the aisle at a small church in Pickering, Ont. As she began her march, escorted by her brother, Maxine was surprised to hear the sound of Matthew’s voice, as he performed a song for her.
The Factory Lounge, a nightclub-themed venue hosted the guests. Hors d’oeuvres represented the couple’s heritage: Samosas from Sri Lanka and jerk shrimp from Jamaica. The cake was the bride’s favourite dessert – a giant cinnamon bun! Maxine received a second surprise from her groom during the reception when he and two groomsmen performed a dance to Neyo’s “Sexy Love” and Chris Brown’s “Forever”.
The bridal bouquet featured three small charms with pictures of the bride’s late father. The colourful bouquet was wrapped with one of his handkerchiefs.
