Hello there

A boutique coordination studio in Ottawa

C&A Wedding Co. was founded by Ankica and Crista, two coordinators who believe a wedding day should feel effortless for the people living it. We are detail people by nature — timelines, seating charts, vendor arrivals, the exact moment the candles are lit.

Our work sits quietly in the background. We confirm the plans you have made, fill in the ones you haven't thought of yet, and carry the logistics of the day so your family and friends never have to.

Based in Ottawa, Ontario, we coordinate weddings across the city and its surrounding areas — from heritage venues and city halls to countryside estates and family gardens.

How we work

Three quiet steps

I

Introduction

We start with a conversation about your day — the venue, the vendors already booked and the details that matter most to you.

II

Coordination

We confirm vendors, build a detailed timeline and walk your venue so every arrival, transition and toast has a place.

III

Celebration

On the day itself we are the first to arrive and the quiet hand behind everything, so you can stay entirely in the moment.
