An Elegant Green and Ivory Persian-American Wedding

Leah and Sadi met on their first day of law school at the University of Houston in 2017. They were instantly drawn to each other and set a dinner date for that weekend. To their surprise, they were seated next to Sadi’s parents, creating an unexpected memorable start to their relationship.  

The bride says, “Ever since that moment, we have been inseparable, and, after many late nights studying, passing the Texas Bar Exam, and an LLM at Georgetown, we were engaged in 2022.” 

For their engagement in London, Sadi woke Leah with a heartfelt proposal. “I jumped out of bed and immediately said ‘yes!'” Leah says. They celebrated with champagne, breakfast, and five dozen pink English roses. 

On January 27, 2024, the couple said “I do” at Corinthian Houston. Leah and her bridesmaids dressed and primped at Hotel ICON, where she shared a sweet first look with her father. The ceremony and reception featured green and ivory tones, with warm lighting by Bright Star Productions. The celebration continued as they danced into the night in the Vault at Corinthian Houston. The bride says, “I think what really made our wedding unique was the blend of Persian-American cultures. We took a lot of Persian traditions, modernized them, and made them our own, including our beautiful blended ceremony and Sofreh Aghd.”
