Slideshow: Jyll & Ronnie
The wonderful Gabriela of Bella Festa Design not only took care of the floral design and decor, but was also Helen's day-of coordinator and made the day flow absolutely perfectly! We also made a new friend with Alan of Artistry Wedding Films, who did a fantastic job and was so great to work with. If you need a coordinator or videographer, I highly recommend these two artists!
Now, on to Helen & Zheng's slideshow and some of my very favorite images from their beautiful day:
Helen & Zheng picked a perfect day to get married!

The cake, decor, linens, and flowers were just amazing.

With four bridesmaids, two moms, a brother, aunts, friends, cousins, other family members, a makeup artist, two videographers, and a photographer in the room, plus TWO gorgeous wedding dresses to choose from, the room got just a tiny bit chaotic. Fortunately Helen was able to direct everything really well. :)

The bride and groom looked snazzy in front of the Christmas tree! The hotel was still decorated for the holidays.

Gorgeous bride!

The Gazebo at the Palms made a perfect setting for the ceremony. I love the flower petals lining the aisle!

Showing some emotion during the ceremony...

Helen looked incredibly beautiful on her wedding day!

Helen & her dad had a great time dancing together!

The decor was just gorgeous! You couldn't get any better than this!

After the wedding, there was a traditional Chinese tea ceremony where Helen & Zheng served their parents tea and ate some special foods. They had a lot of fun!

Double happiness (and more) to you both, forever!

Helen & Zheng, we had so much fun with you between your engagement session and your wedding day! You two are such a wonderful, perfect couple for each other! I am certain that you will have enough happiness to last many lifetimes over. :) Thanks for inviting us into your lives!
Lots of love,
Karen & Adrian

Here is Khanh & Bach's slideshow and some of my favorite images:
Prior to the church ceremony, there was a tea ceremony and lunch at Khanh's parents house. Her family sang lots of Vietnamese songs. Even though I didn't understand the words, it was very moving nonetheless.

The ring bearer and flower girl were so cute! Photo by Jessica Savidge for The Wedding Couple.

The doors open for the bride...

The ceremony was just beautiful, and so was this church!

Adrian caught this silhouette against the stained glass.

Bach's mom was emotional during the ceremony watching her son get married.

I love how this creative portrait came out!

The look on Khanh's face is PRICELESS as she watches the garter toss & events following!

Here's a shot of DJ Julio, who works with our friends at Lawrence of Florida, an awesome DJ!

Khanh & Bach, thank you so much for letting us share in your special day! Glad to hear you had an amazing time in Bora Bora (kudos to the groom for picking out an awesome honeymoon location all on his own)! I hope you enjoy all your photos and the slideshow!
Lots of love,
Karen
