{Yalda & Ashkan Akasheh} - Irvine, CA
Happy Friday to Everyone!
This post for Yalda and Ashkan may be very late but still worth the wait ;) I just received the photos recently from Yalda and Ashkan’s July 11, 2009 wedding at the Irvine Hyatt Regency off of Jamboree from the groom himself.
The wedding was absolutely a delight for each guest including the bride and groom themselves! It was certainly a beautiful day in the middle of the summer as guests sat in the courtyard for the wedding reception. I absolutely LOVED the SOFREH! It was such a grandeur display and much larger than I normally would see.
The wedding reception took place inside the ballroom, and warm colors of burgandy, chocolate and champagne/gold filled the room. I’ll definitely do a round up of all the wonderful vendors that worked on the wedding at the end of this post. The DJ {DJ Behmix} kept the crowd on their feet (literally!) the entire evening and his team of musicians put on a show that really got the crowd moving and cheering!
Congrats Yalda and Ashkan! You were bought such a delight to work with and I wish you all the very best in your new lives together as husband and wife.
Stunning bride! I love her alternative to the veil :)
The bride’s bouquet! Beautiful burgandyand mango calle lillies with large pearls filled the bouquet.
Presenting to you…. Yalda Dorosti.
Her dashing groom…. Ashkan Akasheh
Is this not one of the biggest SOFREHs you have seen?!
The ceremony.
Possibly one of my favorite photos of the couple!
Mr. & Mrs. Ashkan Akasheh!
Head table centerpieces. Such a lovely arrangement of roses, dahlias and lizzianthus with hanging amaranthus!
Each guest received these little gold boxes filled with gold jordan almonds (one of my person favs) and decorated by the bride herself.
There must always, always be a room shot. :)
There is something about this photo that I love.
Time to party!
DJ Behmix and his team kept the crowd very entertained that evening, it even shows in the pictures!
