Today we're excited to share highlights from Amanda and Brian's wedding video at the impeccable Fairmont Pacific Rim.

Amanda and Brian are an adorable couple. Watching them, you can see the love that they have for each other. And that undoubtedly is the result of the incredible upbringing by their parents, Craig and Carrie (Amanda's parents) and Sylvia and David (Brian's parents).

One of the things that excited us about working with Amanda and Brian was how they both honoured their tradition and found a way to express what was in their hearts. A long time ago Amanda and Brian decided that they would exchange hand-written letters on their wedding day. This way they could experience their traditional Jewish ceremony and still find a way to voice what was in their hearts. Especially on this day of all days.

Once again, we were thankful to be part of an incredible team for Amanda and Brian's wedding. We look forward to several weddings this year with wedding planner extraordinaire Alicia Keats and her team at Alicia Keats Weddings + Events. Camille and Chadwick Bensler of Jonetsu Studios are responsible for the beautiful images in this post and should definitely be first on your list. Gloria Cheung from The Flower Factory always creates floral magic with a smile. And lastly, if you're looking to dance the night away, there's nothing like a live band. And when it comes to live bands, there's nothing like Famous Players Band.

We hope you enjoy these highlights from Amanda and Brian's wedding at the Fairmont Pacific Rim, and we encourage you to leave a comment below.

Our Namesake

Dur­ing this time, it was Theo that sup­ported his brother, both finan­cially and emotionally. After Vin­cent passed, Theo (and later his wife Johanna and their chil­dren) ded­i­cated him­self to the pro­mo­tion of his brother’s mas­ter­pieces. It was only over the course of decades that Vincent’s work became bet­ter known. 

This was a story that res­onated with us. That an artist like Van Gogh would remain unknown with­out the hard work, love, sup­port and pas­sion of others.

Just like our name­sake, our stu­dio is a col­lec­tion of thoughts and ideas sup­ported by a net­work of hard-working, lov­ing, sup­port­ive and pas­sion­ate peo­ple. And every day we’re thank­ful for them, for we wouldn’t be who we are with­out them.

The name “Vin­cent + Theo” actu­ally pays homage to Vin­cent Van Gogh and his lesser known brother, Theo. And it was the dynamic forged by them that cap­ti­vated us.

When Vin­cent Van Gogh orig­i­nally cre­ated his works, he was an unknown. His work unrec­og­nized. He sold but a hand­ful of paint­ings and dis­cour­aged the few writ­ers that showed inter­est in his work. He was actu­ally sus­pi­cious of suc­cess and was con­cerned that early recog­ni­tion would cor­rupt him.
