Congratulations Lai & Stephen~

A very overdue upload, from this summer’s wedding, in Dorchester and Lincoln, MA.

Lai and Stephen were full of spunk during the planning, and even more on the day of the wedding! The bride and groom were both down to earth, no fuss, thoughtful of others throughout it all. We were amazed how often they checked in on our well being throughout the day! The wedding party was also incredibly hospitable, and playful. Not to mention the one of the bridesmaids – Judy, did all hair styling of the wedding party women (including the bride) in blink of an eye on a hot humid day!

The day started with a traditional Vietnamese ceremony which our friend Shang Chen covered (http://shangchenphoto.com/blog/2009/08/laistephen-wedding/), then we proceeded onto a Catholic Mass, and tent reception. It was important to the couple that their guests had FUN at the wedding, reflecting their own personalities, and contrast to some of the weddings they’ve been to when they were younger. They set out lawn games, fire pits, Redbone ribs, ice cream buffet, game show with the bride and groom as the answer, and to wrap it all up, the bride led a conga line, with watermelon in one hand, and a bowl of ice cream on the other!

Thank you Lai and Stephen, for bringing us into your special day!
