Duke Garden Wedding - Anh + David
Celebration: Anh + David's Duke Garden Wedding
Location: Duke Garden Amphitheater & Doris Duke Center
The lowdown
What a beautiful couple and a beautiful day at one of my favorite venues in Durham, NC. You can’t ask for a better place to hold both the ceremony and reception than the amphitheater at Duke Gardens and the adjacent Doris Duke Center!
Anh + David are a very striking couple to say the least! Anh, a beautiful petite Vietnamese gal, and David, a very tall Iowan, make quite the physical match. And, speaking of matches, they are also, obviously, very much in love!
As evident throughout the day, both Anh and David are very close to their families. With Anh’s family traveling from Vietnam to help celebrate their union and David’s mom, Sue Kearney, officiating the ceremony, family love was the take home, feel good from this multi-cultural gathering. Oh, and let’s not forget the wardrobe change. Just stunning! See the pics.
They said…
“My husband and I didn't think we needed a day-of wedding coordinator when we started planning our wedding a year ago. We then realized just how stressful it would be if we didn't have someone to coordinate with different vendors and take care of everything on our wedding day. Heather created a wedding timeline and a floor plan for us. She communicated with all of our vendors and remained calm and professional when we had to change our wedding timeline several times and changed our getting ready locations at the last minute. She was very nice, enthusiastic and easy to get along with. We highly recommend Heather!”
