Things To Do
High Park
399 acres, this park is home to hiking trails, playgrounds, cherry blossom orchards, ponds/lake Ontario, BBQ's and so much more! Tal and Niels went on their second date here! Wheelchair/stroller accessible though there are hills.
Kensington Market
A colourful, eclectic neighbourhood right beside our wedding reception venue! Opportunities for great snacks, vintage shopping, dive bars, fine dining, synagogues and a small park with a playground! This is the neighbourhood where you can usually find us hanging out!
Trinity Bellwoods Park
Just west of Kensington Market, this urban park spans between Dundas St and Queen St in the heart of Toronto's west end. Bring a speaker, have a picnic, pick up some park beers from Bellwoods Brewery and take advantage of this space! Here you'll find slack liners, circus folk, a community centre, an off leash dog park, a playground, tennis courts and baseball diamonds! Great chill spot to connect.
Mother's Dumplings
Shareable plates of Chinese fare & handmade dumplings from a family recipe, plus an indoor garden. Delicious and a top recommendation! 4 min walk from our wedding reception venue!
Phở Hưng Restaurant
Vietnamese pho, we recommend the rare beef and coconut juice! Cash only and just across the road from our wedding reception venue!
Takht-e Tavoos Restaurant
Open from 10am-3pm for tables up to 6 people, this Persian brunch spot is delicious! We recommend the paneer boroshteh :)
Buddies in Bad Times Theatre
Toronto's Queer theatre! Right in the village downtown, this theatre hosts cultural events, plays, drag shows and dance parties! Performing the weekend of the wedding reception will be "Speaking of Sneaking", a dramatic production. Fun fact: Tal had her pride prom here :)
Le Swan
Delicious French diner right by Trinity Bellwoods! Featuring both diner and french classics. Check out the cocktails! Niels used to work here!
