Minoru Chapel Wedding: Cindy and Derek

June 3, 2009

Cindy+Derek had a huge, action packed wedding day!  The Minoru Chapel ceremony was in the morning, followed by lunch and a tea ceremony at Cindy’s house, and then photo time around Richmond, and a big reception to round off their wedding. The day flew by– here’s a little look:

The flow of the evening was based on the dish– When dish #1 came out, there was a speech. Dish #2=game. Dish #3=another speech, etc..  I liked how the food dictated the evening!cheers at table
