Held by Their Families

Lindsey & Kevin · 10.19.2025 · Sheraton LaGuardia East Hotel, Flushing, NY

Lindsey and Kevin’s Sheraton LaGuardia East Hotel wedding in Flushing, NY brought together a large Chinese American family celebration, a traditional tea ceremony, emotional speeches, and a full dance floor.

Lindsey and Kevin’s wedding unfolded in the middle of Flushing, inside Sheraton LaGuardia East Hotel, surrounded by the movement and density of the neighborhood outside.

Both come from Chinese American families, and both have already built strong lives in their own fields at a young age. Kevin carried himself with a quiet steadiness. Lindsey was focused, thoughtful, and deeply present with every part of the day.

For their Sheraton LaGuardia East Hotel wedding in Flushing, NY, family was at the center from the beginning. During the first look, their bridesmaids and groomsmen stood nearby, watching quietly. When Lindsey and Kevin saw each other, both of them began to cry. The room softened around them. No one needed to say much.

After the first look came the tea ceremony. Both families were large, and the rhythm of the ceremony reflected a Southern Chinese tradition carried carefully into the day. Elders offered tea, blessings, and gold jewelry. By the end, Lindsey and Kevin were covered in gold from their families, the weight of it visible and ceremonial, but also deeply personal.

The wedding ceremony itself was brief, but full. Lindsey, Kevin, and their parents were all moved to tears. It felt less like a formal sequence and more like a visible passing of blessing from one generation to the next.

At the reception, that feeling continued through the speeches. Family members spoke with warmth, humor, and history. You could feel that both families were close, layered, and full of stories.

Kevin, as the oldest brother, cried several times while listening to his younger brothers speak. Lindsey’s sister shared the story of how Lindsey and Kevin met, bringing the room into laughter with the kind of timing only someone close to them could have.

Later, after dinner, the dance floor opened. The formality of the day gave way to movement: family, friends, and relatives filling the room, celebrating them with the same closeness that had carried the whole wedding.
