It is not often that a lifelong school mate and fellow kindred spirit ties the knot with a Count on the other side of the world. Well, that is exactly what happened to DreamGroup's two principal planners Genève McNally & Sarah Shore!! The always stunning and dramatic Zsofi Dalma Teleky was married on July 9, 2011 to the dashingly handsome Vicompte (that means Count for those of you who don't know) Charles de Jonghe d'Ardoye (phew... bet you can't say that name 10 times fast) at a charming and very unique agricultural farm called Rhode-Saint-Genese in Dreve Saint-Gertrude 1, Belgium. That's right our darling girlfriend of the past 15 years is now the admirable Vicomptess Zsofi de Jonghe d'Ardoye (aka The Countess) and we couldn't be more excited and proud of her most deserved happiness. Our reason for this blog is not to brag that we are best friends with a Countess (although that's pretty fun in itself), but more so to share with you one of the most vibrant, cheerful, & inspiring wedding designs we have seen in a very long time. This is not to say that the more commonly seen elegant, warm, understated looks that grace many Canadian and American blogs and magazines are not equally as fabulous in their own right, it's just that when a wedding offers this much colour, drama and unique elements we felt with such passion that it had to be shared! With the bride's blessing (and that of her fabulous local planner Stephanie Bruyns) we give you The Wedding of Vicomptess Zsofi & Vicompte Charles... We hope you enjoy the unfolding wedding story as much as we did!
