The two-day celebration
began with a Vietnamese
ceremony, rich in
tradition, during which
the bridal party wore
customary Vietnamese
attire. The groom
presented the bride and
her family with symbolic
gifts and a celebratory
catered lunch followed.
A gold satin ribbon adorned with a vintage
brooch embellished the glam invitations
by empress paper crafts.
Julia’s Christian Louboutin pumps
were from holt renfrew.
As per tradition, the second day
began with a Chinese ceremony,
held at Julia’s home. The bride
wore a traditional, red Chinese
wedding dress for the occasion,
which involved her bridesmaids
challenging the groom to a
number of playful obstacles,
before they set off for casa
loma (part of liberty
entertainment group) to
continue the wedding festivities.
For the Vietnamese ceremony, the groom wore a made-to-measure Ermenegildo
Zegna suit, Gucci shoes, and a Hugo Boss shirt and tie.
The civil ceremony took place inside Casa Loma’s solarium where
massive crystal vases filled with garden roses and hydrangea lined
the aisle. “The ceremony was short, simple and sweet,” notes Julia.
