Karina and Sevag’s story starts with their parents. Their dads went to medical school together in Lebanon, and while Karina and Sevag had seen each other a few times growing up, they really became friends when Karina moved to LA in 2018. The two quickly hit it off and became part of the same friend group, and what started as a friendship slowly grew into something more. A few years later, while Karina was working in downtown LA and Sevag was attending grad school at USC, their midweek lunches turned into dinners and eventually into dating. Four years later, they have shared countless laughs, adventures, and travels together, and now they cannot wait to celebrate their next chapter surrounded by all their favorite people.


What is the dress code for the wedding?

Our wedding is Black Tie. Men are welcome to wear a tuxedo if they have one, though a dark suit is perfectly appropriate. We encourage women to wear a floor-length gown or another elegant formal dress of their choosing. We can't wait to celebrate with everyone looking their best! ✨

What is the schedule on the wedding day?

Our ceremony will take place at St. Gregory Armenian Church in Pasadena at 4:00 PM. Cocktail hour will be held outdoors in the Vibiana Courtyard beginning at 6:00 PM, and the reception will take place indoors at Vibiana.

Where should I stay if I don't live in Los Angeles?

If you're traveling just for the wedding, Downtown Los Angeles is the closest area to our reception venue and offers the most convenient access to the festivities.

For guests planning to spend additional time exploring Los Angeles, the Westside (Beverly Hills and surrounding areas) is a great choice, with easy access to many of the city's most popular attractions.

Glendale is another excellent option, as it's conveniently located near both our ceremony and reception venues.

We've included a few hotel recommendations below to help make your planning easier.
