Who can keep a smile on his face while eating a mouthful of wasabi, downing a glass of syrup, and doing push-ups with each of his groomsmen on his back? Alex can. And that’s just some of the things he had to do to see his beautiful bride Tera. But that smile lasted the whole day. And why wouldn’t it? It was a perfect day. From the heartfelt tea ceremonies at the Kyoto Grand to the elegant ceremony & reception at the Vibiana in Downtown Los Angeles. And as the day turned to night, the hall was transformed and the Vibiana was beautifully lit in hues of blue & purple with ceiling filled with stars like the night sky. The evening’s festivities included a very cool Chinese dragon dance and a Hawaiian wedding hula by the bride. It was an incredible and flawless production. And the icing on the cake? Street style tacos served in the courtyard for everyone in the final hours of the evening. Tera and Alex, you know how to put a smile on THIS face.

Hi! I have watched this beautiful video 4 times and am not done yet!! Love to you both.
What a beautiful remembrance and gift to all of us, particularly those who couldn’t be there. Like Mary, I have watched this video over and over. Your smile, Alex, is unforgettable. And that is a forever memory for Tera. What a stunning bride you are, Tera. Being from the “sticks” of North Idaho, I was so intrigued with not only your settings but the customs that gave your folks such joy I am sure. The Asian culture is so refined and delicate. What an honor for me to have been included in your day. I wish you both so much love, laughs, and patience. I hope to meet you soon, Tera. I want to know the woman who stole Alex’s heart AND received the thumbs-up from his grandmother! My love to you both. Marilyn Kerns
Dear Alex, you may not remember me but I had Christmas dinner with you and your family in 2005. Congratulations on you wedding! You wife Tera is gorgeous. Hope you two had an amazing honeymoon and many years of happiness together. If you are ever in Toronto, give me a ring (your mom has my number), you are always welcome in my house.
Wonderful! We wish them a happymarried life.
Congratulation.
