Quincy China Pearl wedding – Traditional vietnamese wedding – Bic + Tam

Me: So tell me, whats of things do you like to do together?

Bic & Tam:

WINE – we’re not experts, we just like to drink it.

WALKS – because I don’t run.

WOKS – we like to cook together and something sauteed with rice is our main go-to.

These people are my kind of people.

First off, they’ve been dating forever, since 2007. They survived a two year long distance between MA and NC, when Bic when to school. Being the ambitious and motivated person Bic is, she wanted to meet her education goals prior to entertaining the marriage concept. They talk about how it was a difficult time, but through phone, Skype and many flights, they were able to build their relationship in to something very concrete. When I first met Tam, I thought he was insanely nice. As my mom would say, “he has a kind face”. (Don’t worry Bic, I think you’re beautiful, too!)

Bic and Tam had a traditional Boston Vietnamese wedding, starting off with tea ceremonies to honor their parents, then heading over to their local church for their Christian ceremony. The night erupted with the largest and craziest dance party of my 2014 wedding roster. I wasn’t completely sure how big of a party it would be. Drinks flowed freely. There were lots of pretty high heels and perfectly done hair. With a 10 course dinner, it’s expected that most would be stuffed to the brim and feel too food-coma-ish to dance. Oh how WRONG I was. EVERYONE was on the dance floor… all 400ish guests. It was so crazy. I have no more words… just… so… crazy… fun!
