A few months ago, I shared a behind-the-scenes sneak peak from high school sweethearts Kim and Francis’ beautiful summer wedding, which elegantly combined Eastern and Western tradition for a day that was fun, meaningful and memorable for all who shared it. From the bride's stunningly intricate ao dai gown to the Vietnamese Catholic ceremony to custom cake toppers symbolizing the Chinese Year of the Pig, Kim and Francis consistently found ways to honor their heritage while also embracing the Western traditions they valued.
Coordinating a wedding for such a truly gracious couple was in every way an honor, and that’s why I’m especially excited to share a selection of their professional photos, which were artfully captured by
James Le Photography and showcase an all-around amazing celebration. I’ve also included just a few extra shots from my own personal library, highlighting even more favorite moments and lovely details.
