For this avant-garde bridal fashion feature, directed and photographed by Anthony Patrick Manieri, we headed to the historic Omni King Edward Hotel in downtown Toronto. With work from top bridal designers – Whyte Couture, Ines Di Santo and Zuhair Murad among others – at our disposal, and the untouched remains of the famed 17th-floor Crystal Ballroom serving up as an edgy wintery backdrop, the shoot had no trouble taking the spot of our Winter/Spring 2016 cover. Find it on stands now.
