Family traditions, live music and a celebration beside Lake Ontario. Raya and Roman’s wedding brings the emotion of their Ukrainian ceremony into an energetic Palais Royale reception.
A wedding we filmed
Raya + Roman
Raya and Roman’s Toronto wedding was full of Ukrainian tradition, beginning with an intimate family blessing before their ceremony at St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Church. The ceremony featured Vesnivka Choir, with Ukrainian choral music woven throughout the service.
Their celebration continued at Palais Royale on Toronto’s waterfront, with a traditional bread, salt and wine welcome, Ukrainian dancing, a towel ceremony and live music. Planned by Sylvia Ibrahim of Le Petit House, the day balanced meaningful family traditions with a lively summer reception overlooking Lake Ontario.
This wedding trailer was edited to “Carry You Home” by Alex Warren, bringing together the emotional moments, Ukrainian traditions and high-energy celebration into a short cinematic film.
