What is your story?

After ten years of dating, we exchanged vows and rings in the company of our closest friends and family on September 19, 2021. Our commitment to one another is to make the most of this life we share, for each of us and for both of us.

How did the two of you meet?

We met at a dinner party during our senior year of college. Despite having many mutual friends, our paths had never crossed until then! We both arrived early to set up, arrange name cards, and make sure everything was in order. When the time came to take our seats, we weren’t meant to be at the same table… but a friend grabbed Aaron and plopped him down across from Samm. Samm texted another friend under the table saying, “Aaron’s cute!” We went out on our first date two nights later… and the rest is history.

What was your favorite memory of your wedding day?

There were so many amazing moments. Among our favorites was the period immediately following the ceremony, where we performed the traditional Jewish ritual of Yichud – when newlyweds share some time together in seclusion – and enjoyed a traditional Korean dish called janchi guksu (잔치국수) – a warm noodle soup eaten on celebratory occasions that symbolizes longevity in life and marriage.

What were the main influences behind the style of your wedding, its location and your venue choice for your big day?

We wanted the day to represent not only the decade we’d spent together but also the future we’d be creating as husband and wife. We thought a lot about how we could incorporate elements from each of our cultures into the day through the ceremony, food, ornaments, and favors… a process which naturally led to larger discussions about how we’d want to do the same in our home, with our kids, and more. A place of gathering and joyful memories for the Rosenbergs for more than 30 years, Aaron’s family country house in upstate New York was the perfect location for the wedding. What’s more, we held the ceremony in the backyard beneath a willow tree, which is also the meaning of Samm’s last name (Yu).

What would your top tips be for somebody planning their wedding?

After being engaged for over a year, we decided in March that we wanted to get married in September. We met Copper + Cream in April and they are entirely responsible for us having the incredible day we did. Their brilliance, creativity, patience, and support made it possible for us to enjoy planning a wedding… in 5 months… from another country (as we live in London)… during a pandemic. No small feat! If you’re at the start of your planning process, and you find someone great who fits into your budget, we definitely recommend working with a planner. As we were nearing the wedding day, the forecast showed rain, which would have meant squishy, muddy, grounds. We checked the forecast hourly and anxiously… and even warned our guests that they may have to pack boots as an alternative. What helped the most, though, was refocusing our energies on what we knew would make us the happiest: That we were going to be married surrounded by friends and family. So our top tip would be to remember that your day will be incredible. No matter what. 

What made you decide to hire a wedding videographer? Any tips for couples on the fence for a film?

Samm was, admittedly, on the fence for a film for some time. But as we were watching films from Gavin’s portfolio, Samm was clearly very moved, tearing up — and Aaron pointed out that we didn’t even know these people! If these were the kinds of feelings that could be evoked from watching a stranger’s wedding film, imagine what would be felt watching our own. And imagine sharing that with our family, friends, kids, and beyond.

A Jewish wedding is a ceremony that is held for a Jewish couple who wish to begin their lives together based on this faith. There will be traditional expectations for both the couple and the attendees, as they celebrate their union.

Many Jewish couples hold their ceremonies in a synagogue, typically where they attend on a regular basis. This may also lend options for reception space as well.

The most popular colors in a Korean wedding are red and blue, symbolic of the “eum-yang.” Typically, the bride wears red, while the groom wears blue. Family plays a huge role in Korean weddings from the drinking tradition of hapgeunrye to the paebaek tea ceremony with the parents.

A traditional Korean wedding gift is a white envelope containing cash—the amount should correspond to your level of closeness to the couple.

Need vendors for your Korean wedding? These pros specialize in this style.

A Korean wedding is a very traditional, but very colorful celebration. Merely 20 years ago, people thought the traditional ceremony was completely outdated, but modern couples are now starting to embrace their heritage again and incorporate the deep symbolism that comes with a Korean wedding.

A Korean wedding can be as traditional or nontraditional as you choose. Some couples will wear more Western traditional clothing, i.e. the white wedding dress or suit, some may choose to wear Korean traditional dress like a hanbok or do half the wedding in one and half in the other. A couple may have a paebaek ceremony, traditionally a private ceremony allowing only family, although some modern couples are holding it during the cocktail hour so everyone can join.

A simple wedding can be held anywhere but we suggest using the same venue for both ceremony and reception. You can also look into all-inclusive venues that will take care of food, décor, photographer, alcohol, staff, guest accommodations and more. What could be simpler?

Consider mismatched wedding party dresses, and brides may want a gown with clean lines or even a tea-length dress.

Need vendors for your simple wedding? These pros specialize in this style.

A simple wedding sticks to the basics, doesn't go crazy on décor and keeps the guest list minimal. The venue should be somewhere that will look beautiful as is or with only a few extra touches or will require only a little DIY effort.

At a simple wedding, be very particular with your guest list. You really only need to invite your "A-list," aka your immediate families and closest friends. It will help your budget and less guests means more face time with each person. Consider a shorter timeline—this will help your budget and keep the celebration from feeling too formal. And only focus on the most important details, there's no need to calligraphed signage at a simple wedding!

Begin your marriage with a choice that is as strong as your love for one another. Choose Platinum, a metal thats strength and rarity mirrors yours. Other qualities and characteristics of platinum: pure, rare, feels significant (heavier than gold). Platinum is one tough metal: it’s much stronger and denser than gold, and is known for its ability to withstand daily wear without thinning. That’s why it’s the industry standard for a diamond’s setting. A platinum crown ensures that a diamond will be held securely. Platinum is naturally white: it’s known for its natural white color - a truly white metal, unlike “white gold” which is actually yellow gold that was mixed with other metals and then plated with rhodium to appear white. When diamonds are set in platinum, their fire and brilliance are much more evident against platinum’s “true white. Choose platinum!
