A Bicultural Elegant Wedding at Blue Hill Stone Barns, NY
Jean and Jun met around 4 years before they married in an elegant celebration at New York’s famed Blue Hill at Stone Barns. Their love story started as a vetted blind date organized by Jun’s best friend and Jean’s older brother.
Jean explained to me that she identifies as being bicultural – neither singularly Korean nor American, but also somehow both. Having grown up in a Korean family in Milan, Italy, and moved to NYC about a decade ago, Jun said he felt as confused as she did.
To me, Jean and Jun’s elegant bicultural wedding was a beautiful example of how two people can come together in love and commitment, based on a mutual understanding of and respect for each other’s unique history and identity.
Elegance in Every Detail: Capturing Silk Florals and Timeless Sophistication at Blue Hill
One of my favorite details to photograph was the bride’s dress. The skirt was so striking, covered in silk florals! Every detail of this wedding was so elegant and thoughtful. From Jean’s hair in an elegant low bun, (perfect against her veil) to the minimal color palette and creamy florals.
Jean was overcome by emotion as she walked down the aisle, and sweetly covered her face with her bouquet. It was a moment of pure joy and heartfelt connection, encapsulating the essence of their bicultural love story.
Honoring Tradition: A Unique Processional with Custom Korean Attire
They chose not to have a bridal party, but instead had their parents walk together during the processional. Both of their mothers wore custom-made, traditional Korean dresses, called “Han-bok” for the ceremony.
Their wedding at Blue Hill Stone Barns was not just a celebration of their union, but a beautiful reflection of their shared values, traditions, and the journey that brought them together. As they embark on this new chapter as husband and wife, Jean and Jun’s elegant wedding serves as a reminder that love transcends cultural boundaries, bringing people together in the most meaningful of ways.
