PHOTOGRAPHY : Oscar LaVerde Photography – Ontario Wedding Photographers specializing in editorial and documentary-style storytelling
VENUE : City Hall, Toronto, ON
On July 15th, 2025, Kerri and Trinh tied the knot in an intimate micro wedding at Toronto City Hall. Joined by their families, they celebrated their love in a way that was relaxed, authentic, and filled with joy.
As photographers, we love the modern architecture of Toronto City Hall — it’s a space that transforms beautifully into an artistic backdrop for elopements and micro weddings. From the sweeping curves of the building to the textures of nearby streets, it gave us endless opportunities to create elegant and timeless imagery.
The morning began with family portraits at Toronto City Hall, capturing laughter, connection, and all the little moments that matter most. Their ceremony was heartfelt and simple, but deeply meaningful, a true reflection of who they are as a couple.
After the vows, we explored Osgoode Hall and the nearby streets of downtown Toronto for couple portraits. The mix of modern lines, historic architecture, and urban energy gave their gallery a balance of editorial elegance and documentary intimacy.
One of the most rewarding parts of the day came later, when Kerri and Trinh shared this heartfelt review with us:
“We took our City Hall wedding photos with Oscar and Mena back in July. They were so friendly and patient with us. I love that they gave us a sneak peek the day after. And when we finally got the rest of the photos (about 5-6 weeks after), we were blown away. The photos turned out AMAZING. We loved how the photos turned out, we love how they edited them. We were so impressed. We will definitely reach out to them again in the future!”
Hearing those words reminded us why we love photographing elopements and city weddings: the focus stays on love, family, and presence in the moment.
Kerri and Trinh’s City Hall wedding was proof that smaller weddings can be just as meaningful and beautiful as the largest celebrations. Their day was simple, stylish, and full of genuine connection — the kind of wedding that makes us fall in love with Toronto all over again.
For couples planning a micro wedding or elopement, Toronto City Hall and its surroundings offer a one-of-a-kind backdrop that blends urban sophistication with heartfelt intimacy.
Your wedding date may still be available, and we’d be honoured to capture your celebration with the same blend of elegant editorial portraits and candid documentary storytelling.
