Wedding location: California

The Chapel at Mills College was an absolutely stunning church that somehow held 150 people intimately without feeling overcrowded. We fell in love with the church at first sight and this photo captures everything that made our wedding a success. Family, close friends, and a pair of bestest friends in the middle.

Here, the bride-to-be was anxiously waiting as the big moment drew near. The beautiful room that served as her bridal room was connected to the chapel and was comfortable, private, and spacious.

The bride and her friends made these paper rose centerpieces that captured the wedding colors and the spirit of the Fall season. Symbolically, the photo shows how much the wedding hinged on the love of all the friends and family who invested their time in making it a success.

The Happy Meal. Dinner was self-served inside the Reinhardt Alumnae House and guests would then dine in the backyard garden.

The groom and his close friends danced a whole Back Street Boys and MC Hammer dance dressed as Darth Vader and Storm Troopers. The bride's astonishment and laughs meant they had succeeded.

Soon after the groom's surprise dance, the newly weds sat with everyone to watch a great slide show. The groom did not even have time to change out of his Vader outfit! This best captured our reception area at Mills College's Reinhardt Alumnae House's backyard.

Beautiful pictures you two! And the only cheaters are the ones accusing people of cheating. When you point a finger at someone, three are pointing back at you!

Dear Justin & Vicky: Yes, love is filled with the Chapel having you & your beloved life-partner, your parents, your relatives, your best friends, your close friends ...... and anyone at far distance ...... Really warm & elegant pictures, esp the Chapel, the cheerful, confident & anxious Bride, Steeling Kiss and Pink Paper Rose. As the ones at far distance knowing Diana & Charles Chung, may we give you two "Now Is One Person" the True Blessings: " Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful ...... Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things ...... Love never ends ...... " In This Love, you're truly growing and flowering and fruiting, with Joy & Peace & Hope!

It's very cute and thoughtful for the surprise dance. It's something for the bride and groom to always remember the fun time with each other and all the people meant so much to them. Lovely and romantic outdoor reception setting! I wish my wedding had done so before. I also like the flower arrangement on the dinning table. It matched the lavender/purple theme color. The chapel was lovely too. I like the light coming from the ceiling blessing the 2 lovee dovee newly web.

The best thing about this wedding was that it was a complete collaboration between family and friends. Every person who was close to the bride and groom had a hand in making this wedding happen. It was intimate and RICH in love - from the handmade oragami centerpieces (made by the bride and friends) to the hours of practice (from the groom and friends.) Beautiful wedding and photos :)
