A Larsa Banquet Hall Wedding: Amanda and Anthony
Amanda and Anthony's wedding paired a Mar Zaia Cathedral ceremony with white florals, family traditions, and a sparkling Larsa Banquet Hall reception.
Amanda Younathan and Anthony Slewoo began their wedding at Mar Zaia Cathedral before celebrating at Larsa Banquet Hall. White florals and clean neutral tones shaped the ceremony, while sparklers and dancing brought energy to the reception.
The photographs center family and tradition throughout, from preparation and the church processional to the couple's entrance and the crowded dance floor.
A Calm Start with Family
Amanda's gown, shoes, rings, and stationery were photographed in soft neutral light before the room filled with family. Anthony prepared nearby in a classic black tuxedo.
The bridesmaids gathered around Amanda in white dresses, creating a bright, unified preparation sequence without distracting from the bride.
A Mar Zaia Cathedral Ceremony
The cathedral processional was full of movement, from Amanda's entrance with family to the couple walking together beneath falling white petals. The altar and iconography gave each wide frame a strong sense of place.
We balanced those wide architectural photographs with close reactions during the vows and traditions.
White Florals at Larsa Banquet Hall
At Larsa Banquet Hall, white flowers, crystal candelabras, and dark linens created a layered reception design. The couple entered through a floral arch before moving directly into the celebration.
A wider view of the room preserved the scale of the decor, while closer images held the couple's first moments inside.
Sparklers and a Full Dance Floor
The reception grew more energetic as sparklers lit behind the couple and guests circled the dance floor. We stayed close enough to capture reactions while keeping the scale of the celebration visible.
The final frames combine movement, light, and family, completing a story that began with quiet preparation and ended in communal celebration.
Planning a Cultural Wedding in Los Angeles?
A complete wedding gallery should preserve both the setting and the relationships that made the day personal. See Vivian and Sherif's Coptic wedding for another celebration photographed with the same story-first approach.
