December 13, 2025 // Ceremony at St. Joseph Chapel, Reception and tea ceremony at Belforest Pointe
Courtney and Daniel’s wedding day beautifully honored the stories, families and cultures that shaped the couple. The bright and sunny December day began with a traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony at Belforest Pointe, as the bride and groom were surrounded by their closest family and friends honoring heritage and the generations before them as well as the combination of both families to come. The Catholic ceremony at the historic St. Joseph Chapel celebrated the sacred sacrament as the couple said their vows.
As the evening unfolded from the ceremony into the reception, the energy transformed into one of lively celebration. The bride changed into a second sequined look for the party as the Belforest Pointe reception began. Amid the festivities, the night featured a dragon performance. The dragons, symbols of strength, prosperity and good fortune in Vietnamese tradition, invited blessings into the couple’s marriage while sweeping away negative energy to make room for abundance and harmony. From then on, the dance floor remained full, as laughter echoed through the room and guests enjoyed food and cake.
