JERRY AND ANH : KYOTO GRAND HOTEL AND GARDENS LOS ANGELES WEDDING

He came to the door and tried to bribe his way in with fruit! That’s when I knew that Jerry and Anh’s wedding has officially begun! What’s customary for most Chinese weddings are either door games or bribing the door guards with lucky envelopes full of money. Which ultimately was what Jerry needed to do to get in, instead of fruit. When Jerry finally saw Anh as she was announced and brought in, they couldn’t do anything really but just uncontrollably smile at one another in joy and excitement! And I can say the same thing during their fist look as well at the Kyoto Grand Hotel in Los Angeles. Pink details flowed throughout their wedding, which was simple and elegant! Including a delicious cotton candy machine! Anh’s wedding dresses were all custom made as well and amazing! All created by L’Atelier!

Jerry and Anh, I’m still so uncontrollably happy for you both and I wish you both all the best! Congratulations again!

It was a nice attempt at the front door Jerry!

I loved Jerry’s reaction when he finally saw Anh in her wedding dress!

Married!
We took photos down at their favorite place in Los Angeles, The Walt Disney Concert Hall. There’s always great light there!

A slideshow moment and dancing the night away!

PAPETERIE : STUDIO OPENING

Papeterie just celebrated their grand opening this past week and I was waiting months to finally step foot into their wonderful new studio! If you haven’t heard of Papeterie, then I don’t know where you’ve been! I mean anyone that does invitations for Jessica Alba, is ok in my book!

At first, I meant to attend as a guest, but when Kim the owner of Papeterie asked me to photograph the event, I was more than happy to do so. Besides, nothing was really different for me. I still got to hangout with friends, meet new people, take photos of them and be spoiled by the wonderful Hawaiian food and desserts from Cakes By The Pound. Patrick, Kim’s husband, also gave us a demonstration on how the letter press works and gave a chance for anyone that wanted to try it out.

Here are just a few photos and details from the amazing night.

Ok I had to have at least one photo of myself from the night.

KIM FROM PAPETERIE

When I first spoke with Kim from Papeterie, I found out that she would be making the lovely wedding invitations for one of my couples, Jerry and Anh, who are getting married next summer. I’m always excited to find out which vendors I will be working with at the weddings. Kim also told me that she would be writing articles for an online magazine and she needed some fresh headshots. Of course you all know how I feel about that, I think everyone should update their headshots as often as possible. So we met for the first time in Newport Beach on Friday and found out we had a lot in common! She’s so fun to hangout with and I’m so excited to see what she creates for Jerry and Anh’s wedding. In true Brian Khang fashion, Kim said she only needed 1 photo and of course I gave her more than that. Keep in mind that we literraly shot for 15 minutes, so here are a few of my favorite photos of Kim, in 15 mintues. Oh yeah and if you are getting married and or need some beautiful invitations, be sure to checkout Papeterie!
