ELORA MILL WEDDING
nspired by their favourite season, Heather and Zack created a beautiful winter wonderland for their wedding day. The Elora Mill was transformed into a dreamy holiday setting with a palette of whimsical blush, cream, and gold. With flocked Christmas trees wrapped in ribbons and twinkle lights, evergreen wreaths, and handmade Christmas crackers for every guest — we’re so excited to share this Elora Mill wedding full of holiday inspiration!
The Elora Mill Hotel & Spa was the perfect place for their romantic winter celebration. Set in the charming town of Elora, with its rich architectural history, stone walls, and views of the Elora Gorge and Grand River, the property already feels magical — especially in the crisp winter air. From the Foundry Chapel to the Grand Room with its large windows and timber beams, every part of the venue offered a stunning space for their beautiful day.
Inspiration Behind This Wedding
Inside, the atmosphere felt warm, cozy, and totally festive. Their blush, cream, and gold palette carried through the reception rooms, creating a soft and romantic look. Candlelit tables, pretty florals, evergreen wreaths, and dreamy flocked Christmas trees tied everything together, while the personalized Christmas crackers — lovingly crafted by Heather and Zack — added such a sweet, memorable touch. It truly felt like the perfect backdrop for a winter celebration.
