I don’t even know where to start. o.k. how about the beginning…. We decided to arrive a little early to Jinjie and James first location to get some additional prep shots. So, I gave Jinjie a quick ring on her cell to see if she was around. What I heard next was more than I think any bride could handle, especially on her wedding day.
The sprinklers went off in her room and her wedding dress and bridesmaids hair {who had already been styled} had now become a wet mess.
Luckily, Jinjie was not in the room when this happened. as she out was picking up her reception dress. On the phone she was cool, calm and collected, even with only a few hours to go before her ceremony. The next few hours the “timeline” had to significantly change and everyone had to pull together to help the day run smoothly. The attempts at dry cleaning ended up impossible and Jinjie… with a smile… put on her incredible Vera Wang dress, intended for her reception, and stunned everyone with her style and grace. She just glowed!
At the end of the day it was all about Jinjie, James and their kids! It was about this bond and the desire to be the best couple and the best parents. As an outsider, all I could think was… wow, what a role model for their children to see a woman take on a difficult challenge and remain loving, kind and a beautiful example.
I can’t wait to share their highlight as there were so many amazing moments that just can’t fit into a short trailer. We had also taken some photos, so we wanted to share a few with everyone! Hope you enjoy a little peek into the day of JInjie + James.
Much love
Jen Mae + Chris
