A Traditional Tea Ceremony + Beautifully Classic Italian Villa Wedding

January 20

The Hotel Granduca of Austin made the perfect location for this classic wedding with cultural elements. The color palette of blush and dust blue paired perfectly with this couple’s outdoor ceremony’s architecture. Before the big day, Na and Joshua privately exchanged their vows at the hotel and then celebrated with a traditional tea ceremony. During the serving, the couple expressed their gratitude and paid respect to their elders and family members. The couple looked riveting in red, and we couldn’t wait to see their wedding day attire! Na added to all the elegant elements of her wedding in her lace mermaid gown with a tremendous train. Beside the bride, Na’s bridesmaids wore delicate, dusty blue gowns that matched the pastel-painted walls they stood in front of. The groom and his men also took on a tasteful and traditional look with their crisp black tuxedos. The ceremony was full of liveliness with impeccable ivy and radiant roses from Jordan Flowers + Events. Talk about picturesque! After saying I do, the Ou’s danced the night away to Royal Dukes Band with their closest friends and family.

From the bride on her favorite memory: “We did our first look and private vow exchanges before all the other wedding events. After the vow exchanges, we had a traditional tea ceremony with our families, where we served tea to our parents, new in-laws, and elders to pay our respects and show our gratitude.”
