Mimi & Nick | San Jose Wedding

Mimi and Nick were wed in a private vow ceremony before hosting a tea ceremony and lunch reception for their closest family, and then a full Chinese banquet for their larger communities. I joined them at their home as they got ready together before embarking on the other two parts of their day. All in all such a beautiful celebration of family and the joining of loved ones.

Nick and Mimi’s tea ceremony was held at Orchard City Kitchen, one of their favorite restaurants.

Later that evening, everyone gathered at Grand Dynasty for the larger Chinese banquet reception.

Lion Dance!

And toasts with each and every table.

Family!

Congratulations, Mimi & Nick!
