Blending classic and contemporary styles in an old-world city, Diahanna and Alex made their wedding at InterContinental Montreal feel entirely their own! The creative couple brought their unique brand of artistry into every detail of their wedding, from the paper goods to the centerpieces and even down to the groom’s pocket square. Diahanna also co-designed her dress with Christopher Paunil, which was a contemporary masterpiece that she accessorized with minimalist jewelry and a bold red lip. Set in a modern hotel in the middle of a city with an old-world feel, the couple’s design incorporated Chinese-inspired decor and traditional Western wedding elements — all of which photographer Agatha Rowland documented in brilliant detail. The overall feel was contemporary and modern but with a quirky and sophisticated twist! The Couple:
Diahanna and Alex
The Wedding:
InterContinental Montreal, Quebec, Canada

We wanted to get married in a small town with cobblestone streets. Montreal is one of our favourite cities, and La Ruelle was a perfect solution: an old street, classic design, and modern function. The street space and building materials give a feeling of Old Montreal streets through time; the fountains are a mix of classic and modern; the closed space with skylight give an outdoor feel with indoor luxuries. Plus, the planners at the InterContinental Montreal pack in quite the package.
