Nic & Karyn's Wedding!

Yay! Wedding photos! We got to see the photos from Nic and Karyn's wedding and they are GORGEOUS. It was such a beautiful day, and we were so honored that Sweet Ice got to be a part of it. It was so much fun to make snow cones for the whole wedding party, and then see now how well those photos turned out...

We are already starting to get bookings for next summer, and after our amazing time at this wedding, we're so excited to book a whole bunch more! If you know of someone who might want refreshing, all-natural (not to mention adorable) snow cones at their Summer wedding, please spread the word! All inquiries can be sent to info@sweeticesnowcones.ca.

Congrats again, Nic and Karyn! Your wedding was just perfect! All photos courtesy of White Photographie. You can see more from this wedding here!

Aaron & Cath's Wedding!

This past weekend we got to be part of the amazing outdoor reception at Aaron and Cath's wedding. These dear friends of ours are ultra-creative, and we knew their wedding would be incredible, down to the last detail. Beautiful ripped fabric curtains, hand-embroidered table numbers, vintage bridesmaid dresses - this wedding was perfect in every way. *Update - they even had our favorite graphic designer create their invites; see more here!

We got to set up on this amazing little stretch of grass, and it was so refreshing to be outside in the sun and feel the summer breeze. Cath and Aaron's guests loved our snow cones, and we felt so humbled to be a part of their big day.

We couldn't keep these girls away!

Thank you, Aaron and Cath, for having us! Your day was perfect, and we're so happy for you!

July Art Crawl + The Cutest Wedding Ever

Hello dear friends!

Sweet Ice had a whirlwind of a weekend! I (Meg) was on bridesmaid duty, which meant it was our first event without both of us slinging cones! Kind of bittersweet - bitter because I missed out on the snow cone fun, but sweet because I did get to enjoy Sweet Ice as a customer and we got to welcome some new faces behind the stand. Anne and Jaimi rocked it!

We participated in a campaign with Kitesting and Core Urban lofts - if you tweeted something that you loved about the core you'd get a free snow cone! There was a live #iheartthecore Twitter feed set up at the Lister Block, and it was so great to see all the uplifting responses that came in about why people love this city! Read all about it at iheartthecore.com.

CBC Hamilton is so nice - we just love 'em! They allow us to plug in at their building (thank you!), they played our new commercial on loop during the crawl (thanks again!) and they had a super cute photo booth set up. Look at those adorable snow cone fans!

I got to stop in at Sweet Ice on my way to the rehearsal dinner and when I walked up I was surprised to see...ACROBATS. Yes, acrobats. This is Hamilton's art crawl, which is consistently amazing and interesting, so I shouldn't really be so surprised, but it was a little unexpected! Kevin and I indulged in some Apple Cider and Raspberry Green Tea snow cones, respectively, and I had a great time checking out the art crawl!

A highlight: Cameron Elder doing his thing in the Needlework window and stopping by the booth with his new buttons and adorable hair model, Sharon.

Another highlight: Stopping in at the Blush mobile shop! Michele has turned this vintage caravan into a super cute pink shop and she came from Guelph to enjoy the art crawl! As always, it was lovely to run into the Beaux Mondes ladies here as well!

Then we moved on to another amazing event! My sister-in-law got married on Saturday and we were so honored that they requested Sweet Ice to be a part of their big day. Karyn and Nic are the cutest couple to walk this planet, and their wedding was just SO BEAUTIFUL!

What a great day - we're so excited that we have a few more snow cone weddings to look forward to this season!

Darling Snow Cone Stand

Some more pictures from Jared and Michelle’s wedding! We had such a fun time! Our flavors for this event were ‘Sweet Espresso’, ‘Raspberry Lemonade’ and ‘Watermelon Mint’ - so yummy! We decorated our stand with some peonies right out of Meg’s garden. The chalkboard is something we picked up at our Caledonia Yard Sale adventure a few weeks ago. All in all, our Sweet Ice stand looked quite darling! You can see more pictures here!           

The People Say Yes!

Our snow cones were a huge hit at Jared and Michelle’s wedding! The line up was intense, and we served about 150 cones in about half an hour! That means fast hands and lots of smiles…so fun! We’ve posted a few pictures of people enjoying Sweet Ice. Stay tuned for some pictures of our table and our yummy flavors!

Long Day, Lots of Ice

Just got in from Jared and Michelle’s wedding - what a GORGEOUS day! There was so much love everywhere! More pictures to come…

Prepping for the Wedding

We spent the last two evenings making syrups for a wedding! Just a sneak peek - we’ll reveal the flavors after the big day!
