Felicia and Warren
September 24, 2008

This is the 4th wedding I've shot with John. You can see John's blog post on his brillantly titled coolestblogever.com. You'll see he notes how the wedding was unusual because of the photo booth thing.

Felicia and Warren got married at the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden at Cal State Long Beach.

Their ceremony incorporated elements of traditional Vietnamese (Felicia) and Chinese (Warren) culture, with some Western stuff for good measure :)

Warren's groomsman Apurva put the wedding bands on a caribiner key ring so he wouldn't lose them before handing them over to best man Arnold.

Felicia was radiant, as you can see. This was just before she saw Warren.

There was bit of trouble during the unity sand ceremony: their sand got bottlenecked at the top and a breeze came in right on cue to blow some sand around, too.

Felicia (after another dress change), was serenaded by all of the guys.

The garter toss--uhm, well, it didn't really launch....... it just kinda sputtered a few feet. The ladies were equally amuzed :)
