Kyong & Donald’s Wedding Part I
June 22nd, 2009
Hello and happy summer to all of you! I thought I would take these first few days to celebrate and share one of the most stunning summer weddings I have ever seen! I couldn’t be more excited that the bride and groom have agreed to share their day with all of us and I do hope you enjoy the photographs. To start, I thought I’d show the portrait shots of the absolutly stunning bride Kyong by the very talented Ian Barkley. I almost fell out of my chair when I first saw these! Every detail in these photographs is stunning to say the least! The pose, the hair, the jewelry, the chair, the wallpaper, everything… Ian’s work is drool worthy and words can not describe how absolutely beautiful Kyong is!
These portraits were taken at the Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake City and Rastar Studios. The extraordinary jewels that Kyong is wearing were generously loaned from the Royal Family of Nepal. Amazing right?! Just wait until you see how ridiculously handsome the groom Donnie is! I’ll be back again tomorrow with pictures from their wedding and stationary program!

You are right! That dress against that chair against that wallpaper. My goodness! Beautiful is not even the word. As a scrapbooker I’m already thinking of how I can use paper in similar tones for my next craft project. hahahah! thanks for sharing!

It’s not wallpaper, but very expensive silk wall coverings!

FYI the link to the photographer’s website isn’t working. Super amazing work! This wedding is stunning.

Thanks Erika! I noticed that too but unfortunately it looks like an issue is on their end so I’m unable to fix it. I kept the link there just in case it got back up and running. Thanks for mentioning it though, I appreciate it.

Hi Karolyn, I got in touch with Kyong to find out who her dress was by and turns out it was custom made by a dressmaker in Utah. I’ve come to expect nothing less of Kyong
Truly stunning. Best of luck to you!

So do you have any contact info for the dress maker? I was also hoping to find out more info about that dress. Thank you!
