Stephanie and Scott met through mutual friends while golfing. “I didn’t have an initial interest, but persistence from Scott won me heart!” explains the bride. While planning their wedding day, the couple had so many ideas that bringing everything together took some thoughtful creativity. Rather than forcing a single cohesive theme to fruition, the couple settled on two separate visions for the ceremony and reception, both located at The Beverly Hills Hotel. For the outdoor ceremony, Stephanie wanted to replicate the feeling of walking through a flourishing field, so she brought a collection of giant flowers made of silk all the way from Korea. The colorful florals enhanced the curving aisle through lush green grass and sunlight. After saying their vows in the sun-dappled, dreamy garden, the party moved indoors, where the pale greens and yellows were replaced by dark, contrasting monochrome hues. Rows of matching white roses covered the tables in the classical, moody venue, and bottles of wine were given to guests as favors. The bride and groom greeted guests at their tables wearing traditional Korean hanbok, gifted by Stephanie’s parents. Despite being a complete shift from the ceremony’s aesthetics, the reception was warm and welcoming, making the guests feel at home. By embracing their combined ingenuity and flexibility rather than strict cohesion to a single idea, the wedding made for a unique experience that brought the couple’s aspirations to life.
