Stunning Los Angeles Dream Wedding
Christy and John met through mutual family friends in California during one of John's visits while he was living in New York. Sparks occurred. But, different time zones and a focus on careers kept them from igniting. Over the years, they built a rock solid foundation on their friendship. Luckily, John was not friend-zoned. Rather, when Christy received a job offer on the East coast - he stepped up his game with an unforgettable proposal as dusk drew and the sun was set over the bright city lights. Fast forward to the celebration in which they started their new journey together as man and wife - and no detail was left undone. Coming from Middle Eastern families, it was only expected that Christy and John would host a very elaborate, traditional wedding. As a couple though, it was equally important that their own unique personalities where reflective in their wedding. Kat Minassi Events and Design was able to maintain the luxury feel, while still keeping the design elements simple, which became the underlying theme for this stunning Los Angeles dream wedding. The results where chic and simply elegant without diminishing the glamour of it all. Everything came together in neutral undertones of beige, taupe and white allowing for the blush and greenery hues in Tic-Tock Couture Florals, Eddie Zaratsian's arrangements to make a subtle, yet undoubtedly modish impact. They were able to incorporate the most important aspects of their Coptic Orthodox and Middle Eastern traditions into a timeless and personal display.
