Ura + Jun | Harvest View Barn at Hershey Farms Traditional Korean Wedding | Elizabethtown, PA

There are days where I think "dang, this job is never-ending." It's a lot to run a business all by yourself, y'all. A lot. However, days like Ura and Jun's wedding celebration I'm reminded of the many joys of my job. Because there's a pretty good chance I'll never get to see South Korea in person, but for one day, in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, I got to experience just a little bit of its wonderful culture. All thanks to my job and Ura and Jun choosing to include me in their special day.

Ura and Jun are Koren-American's currently living in North Korea. Jun is finishing up University and Ura is teaching English to children. They were actually already married in Korea! However, they have lots of family and friends in the US and wanted to celebrate with them. So they threw a party at the Harvest View Barn at Hershey Farms and invited all their friends to celebrate their marriage.

Ura and Jun wore traditional wedding clothes for the first half of the day and then changed into their beautiful traditional Koren Hanbok for the rest of the day. Which I learned they went to a special designer for. The designer looks at your face and skin tones and picks the perfect colors to complement it. I thought that was so cool!

One of my favorite parts of the day was the games they played after dinner. My personal favorite was the newspaper game. You and a partner have to stand on a sheet of newspaper. Each round they fold the newspaper smaller and smaller... You have to get creative to make both of you fit! The winner is the last couple standing.

Games are a wonderful thing to incorporate into your wedding day. Especially since as the day went on I realized Ura and Jun were a lot like me... They aren't big on dancing, don't like being the center of attention, and don't love having their photo taken. Although, you'd never know it from their beautiful photos!
