It was important to Vai that her culture be represented throughout the day, so both of her dresses were made in India, their ceremony was a combination of both Indian & American influences & she made sure flowers were present everywhere (seriously, everywhere. It was an explosion of color!!) The wedding came together in a way that was reflective of them – suave & fashionable with a touch of whimsy.

Things to remember:

The six letters Mark wrote & gave to Vai the morning of the wedding to be opened at different life milestones.

Vai & her family’s close relationship – her little brother looks up to her like no other & she loves her parents fiercely.

How proud Mark’s brother & sis-in-law were watching their flower-girl walk down the aisle. And how a half hour later she tried to eat the petals instead of throwing them.
