Beautiful Wedding

Yesterday I had the pleasure of seeing one of my dear friends, Leah's Godmother Chau, get married. Here are a few pictures of the wedding:

Chau, her sister and Maid of Honor Linda, and my daughter Leah, who was one of two flower girls:



Chau and Leah:



Mackenzie and Leah (the shorter of the two):



One of my favorite pictures from yesterday, right after Chau and her new husband Chris came out of the church:



Cool way to greet guests and give them their table assignments - the little umbrellas were planted in grass and had tags with the table numbers on them:



Chau and Chris enjoy their first dance together:



The lace jacket Chau wore during the wedding ceremony has now been taken off and replaced with a beautiful sash and broach:



As is part of Vietnamese tradition, Chau changed into a beautiful Vietnamese outfit for the cake cutting:



It was a really beautiful day and fun wedding to attend. Leah and Mackie were great flower girls and danced the night away.

Chau and Chris looked so happy together. I am just thrilled for them both.

Beautiful bride and totally adorable flower girl. I did a double take - When I read your post, I somehow read Grandmother instead of Godmother. I kept thinking - dang, she looks young. Then I saw Godmother - Duh!!

Such a cute flower girl, the bride is gorgeous and the maid of honor looks kind of familiar - is that Michelle Quan the Olympic skater?

Actually the maid of honor doesn't quite look like Michelle KWAN but more like a Lucy Lu to me.

Either way, that's the prettiest bride. Love the Vietnamese dress!
