Congratulations Andrea and Ken!
Tuesday, January 8, 2013 at 10:38AM Over a year ago we received a contact request from a bride named Andrea A****. Her name looked very familiar to me but I didn't think too much of it. We corresponded back and forth via email and then decided to meet in person. We met at a cute little coffee shop in Burbank and I arrived first. Sitting there sipping on my cappucino, I perused my iPad while waiting for Andrea to arrive. Suddenly I looked up and there was Andrea, standing above me asking "Are you Whitney?" "Yes", I responded and immediately it clicked. Andrea and I went to high school together! She sat down and as our meeting progressed we spent half the time discussing her amazing wedding plans and the other half catching up on what we've been up to for the past 13 years. It was a wonderful meeting and Andrea signed as a new client right away.
Andrea (as you'll tell in a moment when you scroll down to the wedding photos) is an immensely talented woman. In her professional life she is a new lawyer but on the side she is an enormously talented designer and owner of an Etsy store, specializing in refinishing/repurposing antique furniture. It's no wonder that her (now) husband Ken is an artist because they both have an amazing eye for aesthetics. We loved all the little touches throughout the wedding, including the socks that Andrea gifted Ken with the label "In Case You Get Cold Feet", the programs which doubled as paper airplanes for the guests to throw at their recessional, the potted herbs which doubled as table names, the pink flamingos which lined the aisle of the ceremony, and the doughnuts which Andrea and Ken sent their guests home with as breakfast for the morning.
Our team had SUCH a wonderful time coordinating their wedding and bringing all the thoughtful, creative, and beautiful DIY elements to life and the transformation of the musuem on their wedding day was incredible. Andrea and Ken had a whimsical weddings with DIY touches galore, subtly inspired by Alice in Wonderful. We are so excited and proud to have been able to bring this wedding to life with them. It was a pleasure and a really fun walk down memory lane.
Congratulations to Andrea and Ken and a huge thank you to the amazing Sarah K Chen Photography. This day couldn't have been captured more perfectly Sarah!
