Latin for “shine, gleam, glow, sparkle” Candeo (can-DAY-oh)  is manifested  by the minds of Ashley Burnstad and Dawn Barrett. The ladies of Candeo Weddings help couples to craft their romantic visions into reality. And whether you have been planning your wedding since you were seven, or you’re completely and utterly overwhelmed by the idea of planning such a momentous event, Candeo is sincerely in-tune with your needs. What makes Candeo Weddings unique is the pairs’ ability to create a CUSTOM wedding tailored specifically to you. Ashley and Dawn’s intentions are precisely outlined in their mission statement – “let us work on the details, while you work on creating the memories.” We caught up with these multi-tasking mavens to learn how and why they do what they do!  

What was the inspiration or motivation behind starting your business? 

We have both been intrigued by and committed to wedding planning because it piqued our interest as something that is based equally on design and creativity as it is on organization and attention to detail. As we began to collaborate with one-another as business partners, we quickly realized that we had the same ambitions and goals. We began by brainstorming our idea of a perfect wedding planning company, and Candeo was born! We wanted it to be centred on what we would look for as brides: fresh ideas, stunning execution and highly-personalized service.

What do you love most about your job and why?

Honestly, the romance of it all. The ability to bring to life everything that a couple envisions for the wedding day is more rewarding than we ever imagined. Our job is to share the most special moments of someone’s life – we think that’s pretty amazing.

What do you CRAVE?

To be the number one boutique wedding planning company in Vancouver, based solely on personal experiences by our clients and word of mouth. To make every wedding that we are a part of perfectly memorable and fabulous. And chocolate.
