[section title=”The Planning”]

[field title=”Wedding Colors”]The couple’s love for Hycroft Manor was evident from the start. It was the perfect venue to host their wedding, with its romantic chateau manor and classic summer party vibe. Blush hues were used as the key element in the wedding theme, with hint of greenery & white, creating a simple, airy, and elegant atmosphere. [/field]

[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]The garden-style lush floral arrangement was dreamy, fresh, and elegant, just like the lovely bride, Grace. It also tied in well with her wedding dress. The first dance in front of all their loved ones before the dinner reception was a beautiful moment that brought tears to everyone’s eyes. [/field]

[field title=”Proposal Story”]Proposal story from the Bride: On 12.25 Christmas, 2019, it was supposed to be our friend’s birthday celebration. I thought the plan was to surprise the friend but it turned out to be a coverup story for Gene’s proposal to me. Gene played piano “Innocent – Castle in the sky” which is one of my favourite. There were “25 things I love about you” slide show with our most previous memories, his speech, flowers, champagne, cake and our best friends who helped to make this happen. I never felt so happy but crying so hard at the same time XD

I learned afterwards that the nights he said he had to stay late for work, the game nights with his friends, were actually spent preparing for the slide show and practicing piano (like, practicing hard since he hasn’t played in many many years XD)[/field]

[section title=”The Fashion”]

[field title=”Wedding Gown”]Grace’s main dress was from L’Amour By Calla Blanche, featuring a strapless sweetheart neckline with beaded and floral details on top. The dress also came with optional long/off the shoulder sleeves to add more whimsical elements.

Grace’s dance party dress was a total showstopper. The trend for 2023 is more mini dresses, but Grace was already leading the trend in 2022. Her short mini dress showcased her sweet and fun personality, and it was perfect for her and Gene, who both love EDM parties. [/field]

[field title=”Bridesmaid Dresses”]Bridesmaids were able to pick their favorite style(s) and so the girls ended up in 3 different bridesmaids dresses from Azazie all in blush tone.[/field]

[section title=”The Details”]

[field title=”Food & Drink”]The menu details included the postponed dates, letting the guests know how special it was to have them all in the same room sharing this special moment. It was a beautiful and heartfelt gesture that added a personal touch to the occasion.

[/field]

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]For the dinner reception, fruit elements were used as highlights, bringing in some color other than floral. This was a small detail that paid homage to the tradition of having fruits on the dinner table for important occasions. The guests were initially surprised but ended up enjoying the fruit elements, adding to the fun and memorable experience.

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]Grace and Gene’s wedding was a long-awaited celebration of love, commitment, and resilience. Originally scheduled for August 7, 2020, the couple had to postpone their wedding twice due to the global crisis. But on June 17, 2022, Grace and Gene finally tied the knot in front of their loved ones, including both parents who were able to attend the wedding. [/field]

[field title=”Special Detail #2″]Overall, Grace and Gene’s wedding was a celebration of love, resilience, and joy. The wedding photos captured the essence of the day, showcasing the beautiful couple, their love, and their unique personalities. It was truly an unforgettable day that will be cherished forever.[/field]
