Little bottles of Martinelli’s apple juice – that’s how it all started.  WonChae first noticed Kat while grabbing lunch at the cafe in his office building.  Kat worked at the cafe and WonChae thought she was pretty, so during his breaks he would often go down to the cafe to buy a Martinelli apple juice just so he could see her.  Kat noticed WonChae as well, but she was a bit shy.  It took a little encouraging from one of Kat’s coworkers, but eventually they had their first lunch together at the cafe…and the rest is history!

I must say that Kat & WonChae are sooo sweet together!  And you can tell by the way WonChae looks at Kat that he absolutely adores her!  I also have to mention how impressed I am at WonChae’s DIY skills.  While most grooms are happy to leave all the planning & details to the bride, WonChae designed the boutonnieres, handmade Kat’s veil, and threaded together several hundred orchids to create a curtain of flowers that made for a beautiful backdrop at both the ceremony & reception!  Talk about a DIY groom…LOVE it!

Also, a great big thanks to Jean Tsai for shooting with me that day!
