The Making of the Flowers

The morning of the wedding day, my sister, maid of honor and mistress of ceremony, Jane, rounded up the girls and had them make all 38 centerpieces and the bride’s bouquet.

Jane had picked out local flowers from the market the day before: lotus and lotus pods, orchids, sun flowers, and eucalyptus. Other wild flowers and leaves were picked from the resort’s garden. Each centerpiece were unique. At the end of the reception dinner, we gave them away in exchange of donation for a scholarship fund toward the local schools. The oil lantern in the middle of each piece can be reuse.

Many thanks to all the help! These photos are taken by Jeremy Blakeslee on his beloved hasselblad camera (with real film!).

This is to show off all the great photos taken at our wedding, which was agreed by all attendees to be a really awesome wedding celebration. We had so much fun and lots of people took many many photos.

It is also to honor all those who had a hand in making our wedding super special, and to remember all the fun details that went into making a wedding. If it wasn't for our own experience, we'd never know what the fuss over wedding organizing is all about.

For documentation sake, there was one hired photographer and one hired videographer, but most of the photos were taken by friends and family members who happily shared them afterwards. We feel truly blessed that we know so many talented and cosmopolitan people.

So, enjoy.
