Mike and I returned here recently with bellies a-grumbling to taste test some of their entrees that… Read more »
2. Select Roses
I visited this shop today, in my ongoing search for the right florist to hire for my wedding. I met with one of the staff for a consultation. She was friendly, and seemed eager to get started. I described for her what I already have in mind…More »
3. Irises Flowers
I could not be happier with my experience at this quaint (though not to be underestimated) little hidden gem of a shop. I met with one of the staff members this morning, after viewing their work online and liking what I saw, to discuss floral…More »
4. Duly Noted Stationery
I have to say that I've been nothing but happy with the quality of service and product that I've found at this store. I've been back a few times since my last review, with and without Mike, to select, order, and pick up our wedding invitations, and…More »

6. Inn on the Lake
My sister said "I Do" at this hotel a few years ago, and it was a marvelous experience. They have vast, beautiful grounds that extend down to the lake, where there is a large wooden gazebo beside the water that was perfect for their ceremony. The…More »
7. Charm Diamond Centre
I have bought jewellry and decorative items here in the past (mostly as gifts for others) and have always found the selection varied and beautiful, and the service friendly. My fiancee bought my engagement ring here as well, and when we brought it…More »
8. First Choice Haircutters
I've had my hair styled twice at First Choice, both times for weddings in which I was a bridesmaid, and I'm almost certain that if I'd listened hard enough I could have heard the sound of my hair gently weeping for what it had been put through. Or…More »
9. Birks
Definitely one of the more expensive jewellry stores around, this is a classy place. Being a bit on the clumsy, uncoordinated side, I'm just happy I managed to get in and out of this beautiful shop with both the merchandise and my credit card…More »

We are also registered at Home…More »

Janet, who owns and runs this store is WONDERFUL. She made the bridesmaids dresses for my wedding and did an absolutely fantastic job. They were beautiful and exactly what the girls and I were looking for.

This is going to be short and sweet, as I've only been here once, two weeks ago, to have my wedding dress steamed before the big day (insert-one-of-my-hubby's-pain fully-lame-jokes-here, something to the effect of: "Steamed? You should have it fried,…More »
14. Argyle Bar & Grill
Some girlfriends and I came here one Saturday night a few weeks ago for dinner as part of my bachelorette party. I had only been once a number of years prior and couldn't remember much about my initial experience (either it was just okay without…More »

16. Stanhope & Company
My bridesmaids and I had our hair and makeup done here for my wedding, and all I can say is WOW. I don't think any of us could have been happier with the results. Redmon worked on our hair and Chad did our makeup and they were both absolutely…More »

Dear Middle Spoon,

I have bought quite a few gifts, for a number of different occasions and people, at this store in the past, and have always found their selection of items to be unique and varied. They have a great deal to offer, such as flasks and bar sets,…More »
19. Felicity Bridal
Very classy shop, small, but with a seemingly good deal of variety of wedding and bridesmaids dresses and accessories. I dropped in here one afternoon on my ongoing quest to find a veil I liked (looking back, I may have been a bit on the picky…More »
