November 27, 2022 — Our Chinese Tea Ceremony was held at the Shakespeare Club in Pasadena, on a beautiful Sunday morning. The date of our event was recommended by a monk to my mother, as one of the auspicious dates according to both KSOLE and my zodiac signs. It is said that it is good luck for the marriage if the Tea Ceremony is done on specific lucky dates from the Chinese calendar. This is the reason why our ceremony was actually done after our micro wedding, as it usually is beforehand and/or on the same day. We decided to separate the two events for peace of mind honestly, but also because the auspicious dates given to us just didn’t align with our schedules to have it done the traditional way.

Wedding dress shopping is so fun but also can be exhausting and frustrating. While I started my search early on, it took about two months before I actually found THE ONE. Here’s how my process went and some questions you should ask yourself before deciding on your dress.

If you follow me on Instagram, then you know that I had a color palette for my bachelorette. If you missed it, click here. So naturally, KSOLE and I created a color palette for our wedding as well. As photographers, we know the importance of what colors can do for a photo, especially against certain backdrops so we wanted to make sure that our pictures came out exactly how we wanted.

A gift that both sides can cherish and keep for the rest of their lives, as you start your new chapter together.

What do you get when you put 2 photographers together in a relationship? A creative couple that trusted their tripod to capture their engagement photos during their engagement moon in Montreal. How do you think the tripod did?

They say that you should enjoy your engagement as much as possible, so we decided to sneak away to Montreal for an Engagement Moon. The only regret we have is that we wish we extended our trip a little longer because we absolutely fell in love with Montreal.

If you’ve recently got engaged, CONGRATS! Enjoy every moment of it and when you’re ready, let’s talk about finding the perfect wedding dress just for you. First off, let me warn you that wedding dress fatigue is REAL and before you start your search, let me just share a few tips that will help lessen that frustration when dresses start to look all the same (because they will!)

I knew who I wanted to be my Matron of Honor years ago so the minute our engagement happened, I started planning my proposal to my best friend, Shoshanna. Since I wanted a more personalized gift, I decided to put together a basket of her favorite things instead of opting for ready-to-gift boxes that are extremely popular.

It’s been a little over a month since KSOLE popped the question and it’s already been a whirlwind of emotions, as we start planning for our elopement, tea ceremony, and party. Yes, three separate events, happening at three separate times! But more on all the planning and events later. Let’s share the engagement story…

It was my first time as a bridesmaid, and after two postponements and one tea ceremony later, I learned these 5 things from my cousins’ wedding.
