Jamie & Teddy: Cambodian/Chinese Wedding in Washington DC

Asian weddings are like eye candy for the camera, you want to know why? Well get a look at these dazzling colors! Ahh-mazing! We're so lucky to share the work of Chris Baltazar, the supremely talented photographer from Washington DC. The fun-loving couple, Jamie & Teddy, did not hold back one bit for their wedding as they wanted to embrace both of their Asian heritages.  This is a beautiful cultural ceremony that is a mix of Cambodian and Chinese cultures. The Cambodian wedding ceremonies involved five individual ceremonies and multiple wardrobe changes. The Cambodian ceremonies included the Procession of the Groom, followed by the Hair Cutting and Cleansing, then the Passing of Blessings, then the Knot Tying Ceremony, and finally the Shower of Palm Flowers. Wow, and that's not all! The day-long cultural ceremonies were concluded with the most important Chinese wedding tradition – the Chinese Tea Ceremony. It might be a long day for them, but Jamie & Teddy seize all the good luck they can from their Asian wedding traditions!

From the photographer, Brian Khang:
As much as I love weddings, I love it even more when I get a chance to do something a little different. Naroth & Melvin decided to keep with tradition and have a Cambodian wedding too. When I say traditional Cambodian wedding, I mean 7 outfit changes, long hours and 2 days of ceremony! And you would think traditional ceremony means boring, but they really kept it fun the whole day! I really wanted to share all of the photos from their ceremony because it was so beautiful, but I had to leave some out because this blog post would be really long. So I did my best to summarize it up. Here were some of my favorites from their ceremony.
