Christine and Jess are musicians with the Air Force band, so any official government function you ever see on television with a band or orchestra/quartet performing, look for them! They live in D.C. but decided to get married on the sunny California coast during an deliciously warm Memorial Day weekend.
Christine’s hair was styled by Sayde Jammal from Toni & Guy, and her makeup was by one of my favorite artists, Jessica Edwards!

Christine and Jess opted to see each other before the ceremony at their ‘home base’ for the day: The Shorebreak Hotel.
LOVE all the color and light at this hotel!
Christine’s dress is a silk piece from JCrew and her shoes are Aldo “Bradeen”s in gray.
Cutest flower girl ever.
The couple were wed at Christine’s church from her childhood, Korean First Presbyterian Church in Westminster, CA
I don’t know what’s going on, but this kid’s face has mischief written all over it.
Christine and Jess had a brass band for ceremony accompaniment. Image by Matt.
There was lots of bowing in accordance with Korean tradition
Directly following the ceremony there was a traditional Korean ceremony. (R) Image by Matt
I think Christine’s mother might be a teensy, tiny bit excited about this wedding?
LOVE this image by Matt!

Following the wedding there was an after-party at one of my favorite restaurants, Twenty-Five Degrees.
Party all night, ya’ll!
