“somewhere only we know”

It was only fitting that Mei & Phong were married on Father’s Day – their wedding was a grand celebration with their fathers as well as plenty of family & friends. Mei had everything perfectly planned for the big day, with help from her wonderful wedding coordinator – Paola of Just Chic Events. Despite all the events of the day (another 12 hour day for me!), Mei & Phong remained calm and more noticeably, just happy to be at each other’s sides. At the end of the day, all you could really see is how perfect these two are for each other and how much love they have for their families.

We started out with some getting ready shots at Mei’s house:

There was a traditional tea ceremonies at both Mei’s and Phong’s parents’ houses:

We stopped at the San Gabriel Mission from some pretty portraits.

I just fell in love with the light at the mission:

Why are groomsmen always so funny?!

And bridesmaids always so lovely?!

I love the sage green that Mei picked out:

There goes those funny groomsmen again 🙂

One of my favorite shots of the day!

The reception was held at Furiwa Restaurant in Garden Grove, CA:
