Parker Palm Springs Wedding Weekend

What better way to do be reminded of love than to look back on these images from Zoe & Ken’s wedding weekend at the Parker Palm Springs in early December.

—
A pre-wedding session at the tennis courts. A welcome party to catch up with friends and family from Taiwan, Dubai, London, Korea, and Hong Kong. A late night noodle bar named after their mini goldendoodle, Noodle. Handmade sake cups made by the bride centered around the theme of “one cup one lifetime.”

As Zoe describes: “𝘌𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘤𝘶𝘱 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘴 𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺, 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘡𝘰𝘦’𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴—𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵, 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳, 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘶𝘴. 𝘐𝘯 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘦, ‘𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘤𝘶𝘱’ (一杯子, 𝘺ī 𝘣ē𝘪 𝘻𝘪) 𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘦𝘴 ‘𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦’ (一輩子, 𝘺ī 𝘣è𝘪 𝘻𝘪), 𝘢 𝘱𝘩𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘢𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘫𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨.”

I can’t think of a better way to wrap up my season than dancing alongside this legendary duo and their community. From the get go, it was clear that Zoe & Ken prioritized the overall wedding experience not just for themselves but for their family and friends—the ones who helped shape them and carry them onward.

Every detail—from the aforementioned handmade cups to the late-night noodle bar—was infused with thoughtfulness and heart. Their celebration wasn’t just an event, it was a tapestry of stories, cultures, and shared history. Witnessing so many worlds come together in one weekend was a reminder of how expansive love can be when it’s deeply rooted in connection, creativity, and care.
