The beautiful images from Kevin Lubera Photography provide a glimpse of Sevana & Leo Ohanian Armenian wedding which also incorporated the couple's modern American lifestyle, naturally and beautifully brought together by Christine Zohrabians of Fancy That! . The ceremony was performed at the St Garabet Armenian Church located in the heart of Little Armenia in Hollywood, California.
The beloved icon, The Beverly Hills Hotel, held the formal reception and provided the graceful and chic menu for the cuisine. Fruit Table Caterer and Robert's Catering Service advanced the delectable delights. Effortlessly designed by Ricardo and Paul of Luna Gardens Rentals, they were able to combine the couple’s customs to convey a contemporary, rich and enjoyable evening that their guests felt pampered and appreciated.

Sevana wore a traditional yet amazing gown from designer Monique Lhullier’s Platinum Collection. Unfolding another custom, Sevana's mother placed the veil on the bride, pinned a swatch of her own wedding gown to her daughter’s gown while expressing good wishes, thus, carrying on the good fortune of a happy marriage.
Growing up in the tight knit Armenian Community, Sevana attended many celebrations where she received many special remembrances. As a generous, loving and personal wedding tradition, the couple incorporated this gesture of gratitude and memory for their family and friends by giving fine crystal tea lights artistically filled with Patchi Chocolates wrapped in miniature tulle pouches. |

| Another highlight of the evening was Peruvian dancers, symbolizing the romantic courtship of a couple. Several of Leo’s family members traveled from Peru for the wedding and were overjoyed with all the wedding festivities! |
