Korean First 100 Days Baekil to the First Birthday Dohl Time Capsule

Christopher and Tiffany came to Christine when their son, Warren, was only about 1.5 months old to talk about his baekil. A baekil is a celebration of the first 100 days of life for a new born baby and an important milestone in the Korean culture.

THE BABY:
Warren

LOCATION:
DTLA

Christine met with Warren’s parents over coffee in DTLA and connected on the hardships and challenges of being a new parent. But also indulged in the love they share for their babies as well. By the end of our coffee chat, Warrens parents decided they wanted to put together a time capsule of Warren’s first year with the help of Christine.

They worked together to style Warren’s baekil and months later his dohl which would both be documented in photo and video.

Its amazing to see how much the little guy has grown from 100 days to his first year! So much more memories to come.

Summer Rooftop Wedding in DTLA

For this rooftop wedding, the bride and groom chose to get married in DTLA because its where they met exactly 5 years ago. She lived in NYC and he lived in LA. They never thought a long distance relationship would work out but here we are celebrating their beautiful marriage 5 years later in the same city they met at.

THE COUPLE:

Rosa + Patrick

THE VENUE:

Los Angeles Athletic Club, DTLA

The couple spent time curating a wedding that played homage to both their cultures. They hired a mariachi band and a had a fun DJ that played both great Latin and American pop oldies.

This couple also decided to write their own vows to each other. What was amazing is that their vows were so in-sync that it seemed like they were reading the same vows to each other! But their vows were written separately and it was the first time hearing each others vows. Truly a perfect match.

A perfect summer wedding for this perfect couple.

Magical Romantic Wedding In Sierra Madre

This weekend we headed over to the beautiful foothill village of Sierra Madre to create a romantic wedding for this special couple. We were hired 5 months ago to plan out a wedding for May 28, 2022,. This was their auspicious date given to them to get married. In many Asian cultures, it’s common to receive a favorable wedding date rather than choosing an available date! With only 5 months to find a venue and get all the details in order, we had to get started right away.

THE COUPLE:

Michelle + Wesley

THE WEDDING:

Lavender Marketplace, Sierra Madre, CA

As the ‘unofficial Maid of Honor’, Christine and Michelle curated every details from the invitations design to the colors/textures of the napkins and linens. They even incorporated the bride’s favorite movie into the overall design of the place setting. The small star candies in the place settings are from Spirited Away!

Christine was aggressive about doing everything the couple wanted for their dream wedding in the short amount of time and was able to get it all done! We managed a tea ceremony in the morning and a brunch wedding/reception with 60 of the couples closest friends and family.

Next was a traditional Chinese banquet reception at a different location with 230 other guests to celebrate with. It was a long special day to remember for this couple with HMU starting at 2:45 AM and finishing off the celebrations till 11 PM. #goodtimes
