“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”

– 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (NIV)

 

Those verses pretty much summarize how I view the loving relationship of TingTing + Ben.  Though TingTing lived in Chicago and I only met her once during our trial, I got to know her very well through all our e-mail communication.  She has the kindest heart and cares tremendously for everyone around her.

 

Funny enough, TingTing’s trial look has been the most requested look from my brides to date.  She just wanted something very soft, simple, and would enhance her natural beauty.  So we opted to airbrush the skin to keep everything very light and glowing and have the focus be on the eyes.  During the trial, we didn’t use false eyelashes but on her wedding day, we did.  After looking back at the photos, TingTing was so glad we did 🙂

When TingTing was telling me about the details of her wedding, I knew immediately I would love it.  Why?  6 words…Sparkly Mix and Match Bridesmaids Dresses! It’s so different and “Style Me Pretty”.  Needless to say, I was counting down for her wedding.

 

Though it was an early morning when fellow friendor, Kyana, and I arrived to One King West, the view was absolutely spectacular.  And getting to work while the sun was rising, was absolutely breathtaking.

Now how do you get the bride and her bridal party awake and pumped for her wedding?  90’s School Dance Mix from Songza!  I had brought my portable speakers and plugged them into my iPhone.  Coincidentally, all of the songs played were Ben’s favourites!  I mean who doesn’t love Savage Garden, K-Ci & JoJo, & Backstreet Boys?  When you’re having fun…time flies!  That’s how I felt when I was done dolling up TingTing, her bridal party, and the Moms 😀

 

I probably rambled long enough.  So without further ado, here are the stunning pics from Nikki Mills! If you want to see more pictures, make sure you head over to Nikki’s blog and leave her some link love!
