I have known Thomas and Lily since high school, and to see them together on their wedding day was nothing short of spectacular. You may remember them from their engagement session here. They had a wedding ceremony in Vietnam earlier this year, and celebrated with just a reception at Caravelle in Richardson.
I spent a little time with them as the two got ready in their home. Here, Thomas socializes on the phone, and helps a groomsman get ready:
A collage of photos hang on the wall as Mason, Thomas' nephew, gazes at the camera:
And then gets help with putting on his wedding attire from a groomsman:
The bridesmaids' bouquets lay strewn on the table:
Lily puts on jewelry for her big day, which are given by Thomas' family. This Vietnamese custom is seen as a sign of wealth that his family will bring to hers:
We made a trip to Prairie Creek in Richardson to photograph a few formals, and I have to thank everyone especially for braving the summer heat!:
Thomas helps Lily down as they arrive at the restaurant - and are introduced as "the best couple of the night":
The couple took the stage and thanked everyone for attending:
Next, they are told to show their love to the world, by performing a kiss while spinning:
After everyone settled down after dinner, it's a cultural custom for the bride, groom, and their parents to toast at each table - but food can be involved too!:
Some of the little details that caught my eye:
The two then cut their cake, which sat in the middle of the stage for all to view:
As was as the toast:
And then they jumped into their first dance with a slow song:
The dance floor lit up throughout the whole night:
It was a fantastic wedding, and I'm very glad I was able to be there.
Congratulations, and cheers to your new life, Thomas and Lily!
