Okay, this is the last installment of Clara and Angelo’s wedding weekend. See part 1 and part 2 here.
Angelo has worked with the church youth for a number of years, and wanted to have a special reception with them and their parents the next day. They asked me to photograph their reception right when I was starting my business, and I’ve been looking forward to this day ever since!
Beautiful updo by the extremely talented stylist Yaya Hsu.

The reception started a little late, so everyone was really happy to be finally eating!

So every time a guest could hula hoop for longer than 10 seconds, then the bride and groom had to kiss for the duration of the hula hooping! Yes, so they were kissing for a loooong time! Too bad they abandoned this game after the first two guests were able to hula hoop for several minutes. Whoever invented this game was genius!!

A lot of Chinese receptions always involve games that focus on how well the bride and groom know each other. Angelo was blindfolded and had to guess which hand was Clara’s among some other guests.

They both guessed the correct hand but it took them a while! It was very entertaining to watch.

They also had a photo booth with props, so here’s the lovely bride and groom giving me their most serious pose!
