The Drake Hotel on Queen Street West is one of Toronto’s most popular and trendy wedding venues and it has become an increasingly popular location for couples to host their intimate elopements with ease and beauty. The bride decided to wear an authentically vintage wedding dress from the 1920’s, creating a contrast between the modern aesthetic of the Drake Hotel and her bride style, utterly beautiful, peaceful and romantic. This bride and groom opted for an intimate elopement with a handful of guests followed by a few portraits in and around the beautiful space the Drake Hotel has to offer making use of all the unique art and lounge spaces. The Drake Hotel is an ideal wedding venue regardless of the season and that sort of flexibility isn’t common among most wedding venues in the city. This bride and groom got ready in the same room and eventually walked the hallways and aisle together before exchanging personal vows. The intimacy of elopements can’t be matched.
