Xudan + Tian are Married | a Matthaei Botanical Gardens Wedding

E Schmidt Photography | Matthaei Botanical Garden Wedding

 

Xudan & Tian’s wedding day was so beautifully intimate.  They kept their guest list short (only around 35 guests), their ceremony was completely in Chinese, and they were both so relaxed and in love.

So, the bad news was that it rained.  Their ceremony was supposed to be held outside in the garden and it poured.  The good news is that Matthaei Botanical Gardens, the rain plan is for the ceremony to be inside their gorgeous Conservatory!  Ugh, I am still in awe thinking about it.  Sure, it was hot.  But it was sooooo amazing in there.  Their ceremony was followed by a beautiful brunch catered by Angel Food Catering (they were FANTASTIC!).  Xudan + Tian – I loved your day – I loved you both and I loved your love.  Thank you so much for having me.  Congratulations again! xo, e

PS: I’m still having dreams about those red chocolate cherry candies.
