Real Wedding Shenanigans: Vanda & Michael

Marni Farmer August 10, 2019

Vanda and Michael had a fun, filled two-day wedding extravaganza. For the first day, the couple's celebration began with a traditional Thai ceremony, and on the next, friends and family joined the bride and groom for a unique, carnival-themed part two of the wedding. From there, the couple and their guests enjoyed dishes catered by Ayara Thai Restaurant, where all fun and games continued. Carnival rides, candy favorites, and so much more were enjoyed by the bride and groom's loved ones at this out-of-the-box wedding day. Cheers to Vanda Michael, we were so lucky to have shared in this special occasion. So Smitten provided full service planning, design and day-of coordination.

Celebrating their love story, the bride and groom wed, in a beautiful setting outdoors overlooking the ocean. Following the exchange of vows, Patrick kissed his bride, and down the aisle, they went as husband and wife. Bubble vases and vintage ottomans and sofas decorated the cocktail area, creating an enchanting atmosphere at the Terranea Resort. A magical day it was, we wish all of the best to Laura and Patrick! So Smitten provided partial planning, design and day-of coordination.

Radiating so much joy, Suzy and Duc chose to add special touches to their day. Becoming the center of this celebration, the SmogShoppe in Los Angeles, perfectly highlighted the couples eclectic taste. Electric colored signage was added to the tablescape of bamboo leaves and votives, creating a beautiful ambiance that wowed guests. This dreamy day had all in awe, and we were so happy to have been a part of it.
Best wishes to Suzy and Duc on their journey in life together!
