Cirque du Soleil in Ottawa in 2006!!

I have just heard that Cirque du Soleil's new show "Quidam" is coming to Ottawa in May 2006! Awesome! Have you ever seen a Cirque du Soleil show? We saw our first ever Cirque du Soleil show called "O" in Las Vegas last Spring and we were absolutely blown away. We have been fortunate enough to see a lot of different shows over the years but this was by far the best show that we have ever seen.

The location of the show in Ottawa is still hush hush but the tickets are supposed to go on sale in the middle of November so they will be annoncing the location soon. When I have more information, I will let you know immediately. This is probably going to be one of the most popular shows for Ottawa next year so don't miss out on getting your tickets. What a great present for a loved one. Even if they didn't specifically ask for it, I can't imagine any one NOT loving the show. You can even add it to your Christmas Wish List too!

So, keep an eye on this blog or our Ottawa Website for up to date information about the Cirque du Soleil's Quidam in Ottawa in 2006!

Bars, Nightlife & More Concerts in Ottawa

Has it really been this long since I posted on our blog? Why have I been slacking? I would love to say it was because I was busy with our website on Ottawa but that isn't the main reason. We have just been really busy with life outside of our jobs & our website.

We have found some time though to work on the "entertainment" side of our website. We did write a few more pages about:

Ottawa Bars - lists bars, nightclubs & gay bars

Ottawa Nightlife - lists various places to go at night in Ottawa like the bars (above) and comedy clubs! Lots of fun to be had here in Ottawa.

Like we have said numerous times before on our blog, this has been THE year for concerts in Ottawa. Check out the latest Ottawa Concert Listing. A few more bands have been added like Bryan Adams, Hilary Duff and much more.

Cheers!

Going to the chapel and were going to get married...

Is that song going to be stuck in your head now? I have been humming it for the past few hours. No, not because I am getting married (I am already married - very happily for over 2 years now)! But I am humming it because I have been adding a few more pages to the wedding section of our Ottawa website. Here are the new pages:

Ottawa Wedding Flowers - gives useful tips on what to shop for and what to ask the florists and also gives a list of florists in Ottawa.

Ottawa Musicians - information for those that are looking for quartets, trios, duos or harpists to play at their Ottawa wedding.

Ottawa Wedding Photographers - lists photographers in Ottawa and also gives some tips on choosing the best one for you.

I must admit that I do love weddings. I wasn't one of those girls that had planned her wedding since she was a child but when I got engaged and I was given the task of planning my own wedding, I loved it! I had so much fun and thoroughly enjoyed it. This is one of the reasons why I am having so much fun adding information to the Ottawa weddings section of our website. It also helps that I have "been there & done that" already!

Good luck to all the future Ottawa Brides & Grooms!
