End of Summer Swanner House Wedding

Angelina made her way to Chris for their first look on the Swanner House lawn. A tap on the shoulder turned him around to see his beautiful bride standing before him dressed in a strapless wedding dress. Smiles immediately filled their faces and sweet compliments were exchanged. The photographer snapped some photos of the couple and then posed the wedding party for group pictures before heading back to the Swanner House and lining up for the ceremony.

Guests found their seats on the lawn facing a white and light pink floral archway. Matching floral arrangements marked the back of the aisle and white petals were sprinkled on the aisle. Once everyone was seated, the wedding party made their entrances ending with Angelina. Together in front of all their closest friends and family, Angelina and Chris read personalized vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

During cocktail hour, Sesame Shrimp and Mango Spring Rolls and Sticky Pork Belly Bites were tray passed while the bar served up French 75 and Coconut Mai Tai signature drinks. The newlyweds and their families were joined together in a traditional Paebaek ceremony as guests watched and cheered from the sidelines. Afterwards, it was time for the reception.

Tables topped with floral-filled bud vases and hand painted table numbers surrounded a black and white checkered dance floor. Chris and Angelina made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, then took a seat at their sweetheart table. Toasts were shared and Vietnamese Lemongrass Pork, Honey and Ginger Glazed Salmon, Pineapple Fried Rice, Spicy Szechuan Green Beans, and Vermicelli Noodle Salad was served. The dinner menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Brittany. After dinner, the cake was cut and guests showed off their best moves out on the dance floor. To conclude the evening, everyone partook in a celebratory ribbon send-off giving all the good vibes to Angelina and Chris.
