Featuring another beautiful Fall wedding and we are completely here for it! M&T had their fairy-tale wedding last Fall in Vallejo and it was completely stunning!

We were initially brought on to address gaps in communication with the venue & catering teams. After a few weeks of hustling, plans were back-on-track and we were off to the races! We certainly can’t take all the credit for this success, as there were some answered prayers. But, having a professional Wedding Planner on your side is always helpful and impactful for all sorts of wonky and difficult situations :)

It was so much fun planning alongside M&T and getting to know these two kind & generous souls. It was clear that each wedding day decision was intentionally made out of consideration for their family & friends. There were so many “extras” that were thought through and planned for, specifically to make sure that everyone had a great time! As a small example… At the rehearsal dinner, we witnessed the Bride & Groom waiting for everyone to eat first before serving themselves. What a testimony of servant leadership and sacrificial love!

The wedding day started off with all the ladies getting ready and detail photos. The color palette was blush pink and white, with some burnt orange and mauve for those autumnal vibes. So perfect by virtue of the season’s elements! After a sweet First Look and portraits with their bridal party, M&T were whisked away into traditional Chinese attire (Cheong Sam or 旗袍 Qi Pao) for a Chinese Tea Ceremony to formally honor their family members. Both the Ceremony and Reception were completely indoors, so that the guests could stay warm & cozy in spite of the chilly autumn weather. As part of their Unity Ceremony, M&T chose to water a plant together.

During Cocktail Hour and throughout the Reception, guests enjoyed an open bar, photobooth, and a boba bar! M&T hosted this boba bar for their guests, serving drinks from a local boba shop in San Francisco that carried special meaning in their relationship. The dinner ambience was absolutely dreamy and fairy-tale-esque, through the exquisite burnt orange florals and table elements, and the luscious drapery.

At the conclusion of the Reception, Ice cream and Cookies were served as a “late night snack” for the guests. Guests enjoyed the delicious sweets, open bar, and danced the night away.

Congratulations again, M&T!! Happy anniversary!!
