Culture and wedding

The wedding day started at Casa Sisal with Sarah’s hair and makeup, a very natural look that together with her hair up and the flower details in the center made the most perfect combination.

Multicultural wedding ceremony: Tea ceremony

Before putting on her wedding dress and in honor of the bride’s Asian roots, the couple had a small tea ceremony, something very common in Asian weddings where grandparents and parents bless the wedding and the young couple offers tea to their family as a symbol of gratitude. 

At the end of the tea ceremony, Sarah put on her dress, a simple but beautiful white chiffon dress. As for Jason, he wore a navy blue suit with a white shirt and brown shoes. Both wore a fresh and casual look that matched the intimate wedding they celebrated.

Sarah walked up on her dad’s arm as he led her down the aisle where Jason was anxiously waiting for her to begin the symbolic ceremony offered by a minister, which took place in one of the gardens.

It was a symbolic ceremony full of emotions where both swore eternal love to each other in front of all their family and loved ones and then exchanged rings as a sign of the promise of eternal love.

As they walked down the aisle, the guests threw rose petals on the newlyweds and they could only smile as love was in the air. It was a romantic garden wedding.

A tropical & romantic atmosphere

The reception took place in the central patio of the hacienda, where wooden tables placed around the dance floor decorated the space with tropical decorating that gave a romantic and fresh atmosphere.
