The next stage in the love story of Blair Zheng and Vincent Huang was celebrated in a grand fashion at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel, a place that holds a special significance in their hearts. Their sincere appreciation for the guests’ presence made everyone feel valued and important, reinforcing the strong bond of love and friendship among the guests.
The hotel’s unobstructed views of the majestic mountains, lush and ethereal Stanley Park, and the picturesque Coal Harbour marina added a touch of luxury and elegance to the celebration.
With over 200 close friends and family in attendance, Blair and Vincent extend heartfelt gratitude and thank those who travelled from afar for their special day and the groom’s parents for hosting the wedding.
The Star Sapphire Ballroom, with its floor-to-ceiling windows, warm walnut wood, ivory-panelled walls and ceiling clouds, was adorned with an abundance of high-end floral arrangements featuring hydrangeas, roses, and Baby’s Breath, all air-shipped from various countries, specifically for the ceremony.
The chosen colour scheme of white, blush pink, and ivory symbolized purity, love, and elegance, complementing the couple’s sophisticated and romantic theme.
Liting Chan and the team from Paradise Events Inc. created magic in transforming the ballroom into a stunning palace.
Sky-high crystal columns, a custom-designed stage arch, and theatrical lighting created a grandeur ambiance that set the evening aglow, leaving everyone in awe.
Blair looked stunning in a custom gown by a renowned Chinese designer, with an illusion sweetheart neckline, an intricately embroidered bodice, a full sequined tulle skirt, and a crystal tiara. Her glittering crystal-embossed ‘Love 65’ Jimmy Choo heels and Dior accessories perfectly accented her ensemble.
Vincent exuded elegance in his classic tuxedo, complemented by carefully selected accessories, including Loro Piana footwear, a Vacheron Constantin timepiece, and a burgundy paisley bow tie.
The couple’s entrance was nothing short of breathtaking as they graced a beautiful elevated runway stage for the ceremony. The evening continued with a soul-stirring opera performance by soprano Chloe Hurst and a portrait station capturing the joy and love in the air.
The festivities continued with a delightful moment as Blair and Vincent cut their five-tiered bespoke Momo Chen cake adorned with gold filigree, crystals, and an array of blush-hued roses.
The reception, emceed by Lavina Tan, included heartfelt speeches from many, but it was the words of both sets of parents that filled the ballroom with emotion.
For the repast, guests delighted in a meticulously crafted four-course culinary experience, complete with signature cocktails designed by the couple. Victor put his seal-of-approval on the ‘Bridal Beach’ and Blair the ‘Enchanted Blossom.’
The evening’s wine selection included impeccable Cabernet and Merlot from Mission Hill and award-winning wines from Italy’s Spinelli, including a Pinot Grigio and Abruzzo hand-crafted cocktails, whisky, spirits, and zero-proof options were also available.
Throughout the evening, the bridal party and guests also enjoyed a luxury portrait photobooth experience with the Butter Studios, dancing to music by DJ Junior Bali and creating moments and memories that will last a lifetime.
