Tu Ahn and Zach are originally from the Lansing, Michigan area but now live in Alabama so most of our correspondence was unfortunately through email. I finally got to meet Tu Ahn in person a month or so before the wedding and I knew right away that it was going to be a fun event!
She was funny and sarcastic (just like me) and was full of stories about her and Zach.
We had never filmed a Vietnamese wedding so we were definitely looking forward to seeing the different traditions! One tradition that we really LOVED and have talked about many times since was the eleven course dinner... seriously! Including crab, lobster, squid, shrimp, beef tenderloin, and an entire 25" fried walleye. It was an AWESOME spread! Family and friends had a blast eating and dancing the night away. Another thing I have to mention is that to successfully film an event dosen't only require an awesome venue and couples but also other great vendors. That said we had the opportunity to work with a photographer that we had never worked with before... Larissa Christine Photography. If you haven't seen her work, check it out!
Best wishes to Tu Ahn and Zach on their future together as Mr. and Mrs. Zachary Ostrander!
