LA Times!

It's been a little over a month since the wedding and we're in the LA Times!!

LA Times asked our wedding planner, Amanda Ma of Fresh Events Company, for a story on a unique wedding... so she referred them to us!! Rena LeBlanc of LA Times interviewed us for the story and it was published in yesterday's Sunday Times!! The article is featured in the Image section under the Together page! I've never really been one to think about t

Honeymoon Sailing in Northern Europe

Among our many reasons for having a wedding on a yacht (a private and intimate venue, the beautiful scenery, everyone arriving on time, everyone staying until the end of the wedding, etc..), the main reason is because we love cruises!

In keeping with our sailing & world travel theme.. we have booked our honeymoon trip for late August and will be sailing in a 8day/7night cruise in Northern Europe! We'll fly into Hamburg, Germany and start our cruise in Kiel, Germany. The cruise will make its way to Copenhagen, Denmark - Stockholm, Sweden - Tallin, Estonia - St.Petersburg, Russia and back to Kiel.



After the cruise, we're going to spend a couple days in Amsterdam, a couple days in Bruges, Belgium, head down to Paris for a few days and then.. no Europe trip would be complete without a visit to my favorite place, London! hopefully, we can visit a couple cities in France on our way down to Paris and then make some day trips around England as well.

So excited for this honeymoon!! yay!!! I'm going to do my best to post pictures and travel logs on the places we've visited on this blog, so check back between Aug 26-Sep 15!

5 more days!

OMG 5 more days!

Less than 2 weeks to go!!

The wedding is getting really close!!

Last weekend my girls threw me a beautiful bridal shower at the Langham Huntington Pasadena. We were served afternoon tea and my bridesmaid prepared some fun games! I had so much fun and it was really great to see my mom, grandma, cousins, and close girl friends all together. Thank you girls for throwing me such a amazing shower! (Special Thanks to Jacklyn, Lulu, and Christine for coming out!)

"Mrs. Lo" to be

It took some thought, but I made the decision to change my last name!!

We went to the district office in East L.A. to apply for our marriage license. The room had a very interesting altar set up for those getting married there.. so we decided to take "prom" photos in front of it haha..



Other takes:
