One half of an awesome couple that so happens to be international and gay! After 6.5 years we've decided to tie the knot and settle back down in California where I'm from. Jian and I met in China where he's from. We are about half way through the K1 visa process and now ready to start planning our Chinese-infused modern wedding so there will be red involves, but not quite sure of the hue. I would like to do grey and bright green, but that doesn't go well with Chinese elements in our wedding. I like classic and minimally elegant, but not antiquated. I'm think a venue with exposed brick or wood.
