Jennifer & Jonathan Wedding By Logan Cole

It was a high priority to Jen & Jon to include their families on both sides by honoring their different cultures, traditions, and upbringings over the course of two wedding weekends. One in Los Angeles and one in New Orleans

The wedding weekend in LA had both a Thai ceremony to honor Jonathans mother’s family as well as a Greek Orthodox ceremony to honor Jonathans father's family. Guests were invited to both ceremonies and each was a unique and beautiful experience that the bride and groom, their entire families, and the wedding party enjoyed sharing with guests.

After the ceremony concluded, guests were welcomed to Swan Lake at Hotel Bel Air for cocktail hour, followed by dinner on the lawn, and a swanky after-party featuring multiple surprise guests!

A week later, the couple invited all of their guests to a full wedding weekend honoring Jennifer's Louisiana roots in New Orleans. The wedding weekend kicked off with a very New Orleans rehearsal dinner at Race & Religious featuring a popular street jazz band, catering by a staple French Quarter restaurant, Galatoire's, custom tin-type photobooth by Lumiere, and a ragin' Cajun band. Guests were then treated to an elegant wedding day at il Mercato with more New Orleans music, food, and a traditional second line procession following the ceremony. The wedding night concluded with a rowdy after-party at the rooftop bar, Hot Tin.

The week before all the craziness we had a very peaceful relaxing portrait day at the Philip Dixon House in Los Angeles which brings us to
