Diana & Frank, March 9, 2013

Diana and Frank were hands down my favorite couple to work with so far. They are both detail oriented and had a very clear vision of what they wanted for their wedding right from the start. From our first meeting we all got along well and had fun planning together. Considering that Frank moved to California for a few months, Diana wrapped up her residency and interviewed with hospitals all along the west coast, they were planning a cross-country move, making arrangements for international guests, and oh, you know, the usual lobbying in Washington...let's just say that these two can handle anything that life throws at them with love and a united front.

Their wedding was a mix of pretty traditional American events with a few little Kenyan touches thrown in. Frank's family brought along several huge boxes of curios to gift to each guest as a wedding favor, they were a huge hit. During the ceremony, they included a short speech from the mother-of-the-groom thanking the brides family for taking in her son and welcoming Diana into her family, it was lovely. At the reception, they did a few traditional Kenyan dances with the entire bridal party and everyone had a blast!
