Wedding at the Imperial Room



DiJital Productions plays at many venues throughout the GTA. Planning a wedding reception? Take a look at the Imperial Room at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel.

Once Toronto's newest and most elegant dining and dancing establishment, this renowned space boasts over 5000 square feet of meeting and entertainment space and wrap-around floor-to-ceiling windows, which in their day had an unobstructed view of Toronto. Since a $2.5 million restoration, the Imperial Room is now used primarily for meetings and conventions.

Weddingbee



DiJital Productions loves this Blog!

Weddingbee is a wedding blog updated daily by 20 or so real brides across the world. They chronicle every aspect of their wedding planning journey sharing ideas, diy projects, research, and their personal wedding stories.

Weddingbee’s community also features Boards, Classifieds where brides can buy and sell wedding items, a Wiki that includes a vendor directory and wedding articles, and broadcasts from the bees on beetv!

Under Boards/Music, a bride to be posted a great question:
DJ Questions? What to ask in emails / first meeting

Just starting to research and contact DJs and I'm already overwhelmed (it was originally the fiance's job, but he got so stressed by it that he had to pass it on to me...). What are important questions I need to ask my DJ before setting up a meeting? At the meeting itself?

For anyone who has already had their wedding - what do you WISH you had asked of your DJ before hiring them or before the wedding?

I'm just so unsure where I am supposed to go with all of this info!


It was suggested that the bride use Miss Fondue's vendor worksheets
