Sue Ann and Robert's Napa Valley Multi-Cultural Extravaganza was just that, a non-stop whirlwind of one fabulous event after the other! They got hitched at the Silverado Resort in Napa, amidst gigantic oak trees, with colorful parasols, exquisite table decorations and three dress changes. The couple did not want to see each other before the ceremony so we took advantage of the open shade on a veranda and did some girls and boys group shots before hand. There were a lot of children in attendance and what treats they had in store for them: a chocolate fountain, a serve yourself candy table, table activities and toys, bubbles and more! The adults were well entertained too, with a wonderful and energetic Lion Dance by Leungs White Crane Lion Dancers, where the dancers and drummers circled all the guests at the end of the cocktail hour and herded them into the Silverado Resort's outdoor reception area! In the meantime Sue Ann put on the second wedding dress of the night, a traditional Vietnamese dress, and made her second entrance. You might think that was it, but no, after dinner the couple got changed again and we got to take them away for a few shots as the sun was setting. Sue Ann's last dress was our favorite, a bit like a flapper dress from the 20's, it looked like there were white butterflies all over it! When they returned, there was another amazing performance of Latin dance and percussion. The dancers were as good as anything you would see in Brazil during carnival! You could not help but tap your foot and wish you were as limber as these talented performers. The dancers managed to draw Sue Ann into their dancing circle, it was tougher for Robert who isn't the dancing type 😉 Music, dancing and good vibes went well into the gorgeous Napa Valley night.
