If I had to describe Lynn in just one word, it would be:  Adored.  Charles, her now husband, thinks she hung the moon.  As do her fabulous parents.  And every.single.one of her MANY friends.  And it's very easy to understand why:  I adored her within minutes of meeting her.  She is the type of woman a parent wants her daughter to become.  She is whitty and charming, while still remaining poised and polished.  She wears the love she has for her husband, parents, family and friends on her sleeve ... as do they with their love for her.  It warms my tummy just thinking about it now.

When Lynn told me she wanted a garden / outdoor inspired wedding ... I was on board in an instant.  She was open to suggestions (like my idea to bring in huge trees and mixed table shapes and Lisa Tran's MOUTH DROPPING floral ideas), while still maintaining her own voice.  The collabrative decor effort between us all, doubled with the mouth watering food preppared by The Bell Tower & Rice Epicurean and awesome tunes piped out by LG Entertainment resulted in what I believe to be one of the best events of the season. 

Here are a few of the teaser pictures Kenny Kim, photographer extraordinnaire, sent over to me this weekend.  Special note:  This wedding was LAST FRIDAY.  Kenny sent me (and Lynn & Charles) not one, not two, but FOURTY-TWO teaser pictures all within the past two days.   And they aren't pictures to take lightly:  each is its own little piece of art.  The bar has been reset in my eyes:  this man is a machine!!!  I can't wait to show you the rest of his pictures in a few weeks (so many more fabo details to share!). For now, feast your eyes on these....

They did a quick wardrobe change into traditional Korean attire, and the crowd went WILD.

Part of the Best Man's toast.  He also made Lynn a shirt that said, "Bride of Chucky."  It was hilarious.  :-)

The Phenominal Cast of Vendors....

Special Note:  Everyone in this group is OUTSTANDING.  They went above and beyond for Lynn & Charles.  This event wouldn't have been the same without each and every one of them.
