This Rancho Las Lomas wedding blended Chinese traditions with the gardens, stone paths, and fountains of the Silverado estate.

The couple wore traditional red attire for their tea ceremony before changing into a white wedding gown and black suit for the outdoor celebration.

Traditional Red Wedding Attire

The bride and groom began in coordinated red and gold clothing, photographed both indoors and against the open hillside. Their families gathered close for the tea ceremony and the first formal portraits of the day.
