A Little about Them
Christine and Rich might be different in many ways but it’s their difference and their faith that brought them together and binds them tightly. Christine is Vietnamese American and Rich is English-Malaysian Chinese. While on an annual trip to the UK, Rich had planned to propose to Chrisine on Carlton Hill in Edinburgh, Scotland overlooking the beautiful views of the city and castle. Like most romantic comedies, nothing goes just as planned. Rich forgot the rings and Christine didn’t want to go back to the hotel, so Rich changed his plans. When they got back to the hotel he made her a cup of tea and surprised her with the proposal.
The Wedding Day
Bella Collina Country Club set the stage for their beautiful blush, gold and ivory dream luxury wedding. With Taylor from Blush by Brandee Gaar running the show everything was absolute perfection. Christine looked radiant in her Monique Lhuillier gown with Manolo Blahnik shoes. Rich was stunned when he turned around during their first look to see his beautiful bride to be! In a custom suit with white coat and black trim, Rich was ready to take on the world! After a touching ceremony by Ray with A Beautiful Ceremony, including some Asian influence, everyone enjoyed cocktail hour while we ran off in the golf cart for some more fun photos. Then it was time to rock the night away with Jeff from White Rose Entertainment. The room looked stunning of course with amazing floral and linens from Lana with Fairbanks florist, uplighting from White Rose, and the crew at Bella Colina. With a sparkler exit to end the night it really was the most perfect of days!
