Julia looked stunning in a sophisticated fit-and-flare gown\nwith cap sleeves, a lace bodice, and a flared skirt with a train. Her\naccessories included drop earrings, a multi-strand pearl bracelet, and a\nfull-length veil. Her reception attire also included a traditional Chinese\ndress and a sari. Her bouquet was composed of a variety of flowers in shades of\nwhite, pink, red, and burgundy, accented with pinecones, eucalyptus, and other\ngreenery. Her four bridesmaids wore individual full-length dresses in shades of\nred, pink, and blush, and carried smaller versions of the bride\u2019s bouquet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rizwan wore a three-piece blue suit with a blue vest, white\nshirt, white tie, white pocket square, and white flower boutonniere. His four\ngroomsmen wore three-piece blue suits with blue vests, white shirts, red ties,\nred pocket squares, and white flower boutonnieres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the meal, guests dined on a mixed-greens salad with\nstrawberries, apples, grapes, feta cheese, and poppy-seed vinaigrette dressing;\na blend of rice, quinoa, peppers, and sweet potatoes; tomato ravioli; baked\nDover sole stuffed with snow crab; and flatiron steak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several people spoke during the toasts, including the\ngroom\u2019s sister, who likened Julie and Rizwan to puzzles pieces that are\ndifferent, but fit together perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a number of special touches to the reception: the\ncouple recited vows to each other; the bride\u2019s sister played a viola solo; the\ngroom\u2019s family did a Bollywood-style dance; and it was announced that the\nnewlyweds planned to give a portion of the gifts to international charities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The five-tier wedding cake was done in a white brushed\nfrosting design, decorated with red and pink roses and topped with an ornament\nbearing the couple\u2019s first names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wish them nothing but the best in their future together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
