Inspired by their love of Seattle, Brilliana Hou and Michael Liao celebrated their wedding in style at the Bell Harbor International Conference Center on the city’s waterfront. With guests traveling from various places around the country and overseas to attend, the couple made it a point to have their celebration centrally located in the city. Some of the special details reflecting the wedding’s “Seattle” theme included a coincidental Blue Angels flyby as the bridal party got ready, the walk down the aisle with the iconic Space Needle in the background and the breathtaking views of the city skyline during the ceremony. The wedding’s color palette and floral design featured reds, pinks and creams with accents of chestnut brown and black. Chinese tradition played a significant role in the wedding, such as a performance by lion dancers and a traditional Chinese outfit that Brilliana wore, which had been passed down by Michael’s grandmother and worn by all the married women in his family. The day before the wedding, Brilliana and Michael enjoyed a tea ceremony and dinner with their family and friends at the China Harbor restaurant, making their wedding celebration even more memorable. The couple’s dog, Korra, was there in spirit, her image imprinted on bottles of sweet bubble tea to accompany the desserts, such as the matcha white chocolate chip cookies, one of the bride’s favorites.
