Jessica + An invited their friends and family to the Bedford Presbyterian Church for their Bedford New Hampshire wedding. It was on a Tuedsday afternoon. They chose to say “I Do” on that special date because it held sentimental meaning… The day of their first date.

The day presented a few surprises. First, during the ceremony, Jessica sang a special song to An. They had their “First Dance” in the grass near the front door of the church surrounded by their guests. And after they left the church, Jessica changed into her traditional Vietnamese red wedding dress she secretly had custom made in Vietnam. For their formal pictures, Jessica had arranged to have a Baby Grand piano placed in the field on her parent’s property. There, An and in his full tux with tails  saw his new bride in her Vietnamese wedding dress for a “Second Look”.

Jessica’s every wish came true; she married the man of her dreams.

Jessica and An, thank you for the honor of documenting your love. We wish you only the best as you continue to light up New Hampshire with your love. Much Appreciation… Rick + Deb
