Marriage is a blending of not only the couple but their families and cultures and some of the most lovely ceremonies are those incorporating various traditions. Lia and Reza’s wedding did just this, weaving the groom’s Persian heritage with touches of the bride’s Chinese background. The result was absolutely one-of-a-kind and magical.

Using a palette of purples, lavender, white and greens, we created a lush setting with a vintage feel. Mason jars houses cheerful bouquets of lisianthus, orchids and greenery as aisle markers.

Although the day before had been sunny and hot, the rains started at noon on the wedding day and didn’t let up. Being August, we’d planned for the possibility of the wet stuff and moved the ceremony to the covered restaurant area at the Reserva Conchal Beach Club where the reception was to be held.

Persian ceremonies feature blocks of sugar being rubbed over the couple’s heads to wish them a life of sweetness together.

A picture-perfect day on the gorgeous beach of Playa Conchal, surrounded by 70 family and friends. Great food, fab music and a whole lot of dancing. I think everyone’s cheeks were a bit sore the following day from all the smiling.
