[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]
Kathy and Dan got married on a summer day in La Baronia, an Art Nouveau-style mansion surrounded by the lavish nature of Catalunya, designed by Joan Rubio, the righthand architect of Antoni Gaudí’. Kathy and Dan had always dreamt of having a destination wedding due to their diverse backgrounds and love for travel. With Dan coming from Israel and Kathy’s extended family in Taiwan, they wanted a location that would bring everyone together. Living in Tokyo and being avid travelers themselves, they sought to infuse a sense of adventure into their wedding day. Barcelona held a special place in Dan’s heart as he had spent significant time there during his upbringing, and it was a cherished spot for his late father. Therefore, it was the perfect choice for them to celebrate their love and honor the memory of Dan’s father in this significant and meaningful setting.

[field title=”Proposal Story”]Their story began over a glass of wine and an old-fashioned at Harper and Rye in San Francisco, in February 2020. It didn’t take a second drink to know that suddenly life was better, together.
They fell in love over dueling pianos late nights at the Exploratorium, and wine tasting in Napa, and slurping oysters in Bodega Bay. They discovered they loved sleeping in a van in the forests of Montana as much as nights at the Ritz Carlton, dressing up for a night out as much as cooking over a fire.
Dan proposed on their trip to Israel at the Beresheet Hotel, the most romantic sunset overlooking the crater and then they embarked on a two-week mini-engagment moon through the country.[/field]

Kathy chose her dress at Kleinfelds in NYC as an homage to their time spent living in the big city for a year before they embarked on their travels to Tokyo where they live now. The Pronovias wedding dress is romantic and detailed in subtle ways- which felt like a good match to our venue, La Baronia.

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]They didn’t use a ton of flowers because the event space itself was so beautiful and didn’t need much addition but loved the pop of color that the flowers provided.[/field]

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]Words from Kathy: “our photographs are more than we could ever imagine them to be. They’re filled with light and truly capture the emotions of the most special day. We truly felt so loved and overwhelmed with emotions and I feel like our photographs really reflect how lucky we felt that day. I’m so happy with how candid and stunning they are.”[/field]
