Clift Hotel Wedding | Mai + Ricky

My last wedding of the year, and definitely a great way to end the year. I shot Mai and Rickys engagement a few months ago, and I knew their wedding was going to be a blast.

I love the traditional Qipao dress.

Before Ricky could see Mai, the bridal party had the guys perform certain tasks, and one of them was to do yoga poses. Ricky didn’t disappoint.

I love the reaction when couples see each other for the first time:
