Afterwards, they held a 10-course Chinese banquet at the Golden Unicorn in Chinatown. The bride turned into a crimson Quipao, which she discovered in Jinza Oriental, Los Angeles. She paired it with antique kingfisher blue and Canelli hair ornaments, dating back to the Qing Dynasty in China. Finally, she wrapped herself in a flower shawl of antique silk Guangzhou.
The bride joked about the incident (including the performance of the Lion Dance Team at Columbia University) “My Big Fat Chinese Wedding.” The banquet began with the server, and each table was paraded with a whole roasted pig. “I should probably follow my intuition to sit all vegans on their own tables to get them to see so many animals, but they insist that the experience is interesting,” Kristen said. “As with many Chinese traditions, every dish has meaning and symbolism: the whole breastfeeding symbolizes the virtues of the bride intact, the whole duck symbolizes complete loyalty, the whole fish symbolizes something rich, to name just a few.”
They held a Western-style wedding at the Manhattan restaurant in the financial district on Sunday. The bride admitted that she was dressed “from jewellery”. She purchased antique art pagoda earrings as well as antique art decoration headdresses. Instead of wearing it on her head, she chose to use it as a headband look. (That choice was a popular trend for aristocratic women during that time.) “I wore my hair, which contrasted with the Updo the night before, and had a more romantic look. This provided the perfect canvas for Tiara’s hair wearing a headband, which felt less formal,” she said. To match his wife, the groom wore a pair of Art Deco cufflinks.
Alex actually found Kristen’s clothes for her. She knew she wanted a minimal design – sure to be stuck with the logistics of planning the wedding in just three months, and Christine didn’t actually have time to find it. So Alex searched the internet on her behalf. He finally tracked down the perfect classic Vivienne Westwood tight dress. “We were able to find the stock-sized vivienne westwood dress in the style Christine wanted, like a little miracle, but I had to order it from Germany through Mytheresa and didn’t arrive until three days before the game started.” Meanwhile, Alex wore a midnight blue tuxedo (he found out in advance).
The dress code for the evening was “request for black tie (and jewelry)” and guests returned in a cordial manner, wearing a wide variety of earrings, bracelets, brooches and accessories.
“Consider that we have known each other for a long time and have moved together. I have no marriage life. I am wrong. Marriage unlocks new trust, love, everything.” “There is a famous French jewellery pattern featuring the +/- symbol, which is inspired by the 1889 poem by Rosemon de Gérard, “Les Vieux”. Gerrard declared “I love you every day, more today than yesterday, much less than tomorrow“Meaning “I love you (+) love you more than yesterday and less than tomorrow (-). I understand and feel this now. ”
