VENDORS
We could not thank all of our amazing vendors enough! Each helped make our wedding a beautiful and memorable day.
Kien Lam Photography - Some call it the "documentary" or "journalistic" style. We picked Kien for his amazing ability to capture the day and the many candid moments as it pans out. Each time I flip through photos, I feel like I am reliving this day all over again.
Schumann's Four Seasons Caterers - We wanted to make sure that our guests enjoyed every bite of their food here! Frank and his team not only delivered that, but were also a huge help throughout the whole planning process. Since I did not have a wedding planner, Frank helped a lot by offering great advice to ensure a smooth wedding day. Our guests gave many great compliments on the food.
Indie Cakes & Pastries - The cake and cupcakes by Anastasia were super delicious as they are beautiful. Stephen and I thought our first bite of the green tea cake slice was one of the best bites of cake ever! Our guests also enjoyed the earl grey chocolate, green tea with black sesame, and strawberry champagne cupcakes. These were accompanied by ice cream from Bi-Rite Creamery.
I had my makeup done by Julie Dy, who was just so great at her craft. As someone who does not wear makeup often, I wanted a makeup artist that could bring out a natural freshness without making my face unrecognizable. Julie delivered that. Plus, she's super fun to work with!
Our DJ Norris Lee really helped set the mood with a great mix of current songs and some of the throwback songs of the late 90s/early 2000s. Guests may not have noticed, but I was especially happy when he surprised me by playing "Sherry" from the Jersey Boys.
I would have no other instrument playing during our ceremony than the ukulele. Ray Omega played the uke so wonderfully for us. It was the exact tone and atmosphere I wanted for an intimate time with the closest people in my life.
