The day was absolutely stunning. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. The bride and groom’s decor choices were classic and stunning. Bright coral roses accented stunning white orchids and chrysanthemums.

The bride’s sister conducted a heartfelt ceremony for the couple.

At their reception, they were even joined by a few little friends of the zoo! To say it was the perfect day would be an understatement. After enjoying time with the zoo animals, everyone went inside the gorgeous tent to enjoy the rest of the festivities.

The bride and groom wanted to emphasize their different cultures through food, and with the help of their caterer, they were able to create the perfect compliments of the both of their favorite dishes including pork buns, Peking duck, green tea crepe cakes, and an array of their favorite classic Indian fares.
