Spring, summer, autumn, winter then spring again. As the seasons cycle endlessly and nature continues to blossom and flourish, so too has the love between Minh and Hồng Anh. Like the steady rhythm of time, their relationship has grown, deepened, and matured – marking milestones, celebrating new experiences, and standing hand in hand through it all.

Everdell’s Garden

As avid board game enthusiasts, Minh and Hồng Anh share a particular fondness for the enchanting game Everdell. Inspired by the magical woodland world of the game, where animals build villages amid blooming forests, we crafted a wedding celebration that lovingly reflected their passion.

Love is the seed, the heart is the garden

From the typography used in the signage and decor, to the interactive guest book inspired by Everdell cards, every element was tailored to echo the charm of the game. Guests were invited to write heartfelt messages to the couple on special cards, mirroring the resource and building cards from Everdell, creating a keepsake full of wishes, advice, and memories.

The design of the ceremony space itself paid tribute to the game’s lush, natural setting. Soft peach-orange hues—a gentle yet radiant color palette—stood out against a backdrop of vibrant green grass. Amongst it all, we wove in branches of cacti, a thoughtful symbol of the couple’s journey. Just like love, cacti endure harsh conditions to bloom beautifully. Nestled between them were flowers and fruits, symbolizing the sweet rewards of resilience, care, and unwavering love. Together, these elements told a story, not just of a game, but of two people growing something truly remarkable.

Let love root deep and bloom bright

An Evening of Music

Following a moving vow exchange on the beach—where the sea breeze seemed to carry every word into eternity—guests were welcomed into a beautifully arranged dinner setting. The tables were thoughtfully laid out into four sections, each representing one of Everdell’s core resources: stone, wood, berries, and resin. These elements, essential for building homes in the game, were symbolic of the foundational pieces Minh and Hồng Anh have brought together to build their own future.

At the heart of the celebration was the main table, where the bride and groom sat—a table representing the union of all these elements. It was a powerful metaphor for their new beginning: a home crafted from strength, warmth, sweetness, and resilience.

What began as a cozy, intimate gathering among family and close friends quickly turned into a night to remember. Guests were thrilled when the energy soared with surprise performances by DJ Lucin3x and rapper Wxrdie, two prominent names in Vietnam’s music scene. Their vibrant beats and electric stage presence turned the reception into a celebration of pure joy.

You are the harmony to my heartbeat

But perhaps the most unforgettable moment came from the bride herself. In a heartfelt and emotional surprise, Hồng Anh performed a song she had written for Minh, a melody dedicated to their love story. Her voice, filled with emotion and sincerity, brought tears, smiles, and applause from everyone present. It was more than a performance—it was a declaration of love in its truest form.

Minh and Hồng Anh’s wedding wasn’t just a celebration of their love—it was an immersive experience, a journey through seasons, emotions, and shared passions. It was a reflection of who they are, both individually and as a couple: imaginative, thoughtful, and deeply connected.
