The couple first met in China in 2011 at a dinner organized by Zimeng's parents with an international exchange student to know a little bit more about the program itself before they agreed to send her far away from home to fulfill her dream of learning French and getting her Master's degree. This student happened to be Bolun, and that was the start of their story. On their 8th anniversary, Bolun proposed in their favorite restaurant in Paris, Affinité.

The amazing vendors helped to create the relaxed mood of the entire day and a dreamy scene of warmth and romance at the stunning yards of Chateau where - under the cypress trees - the couple exchanged their vows. Their wedding day featured light, ethereal gowns for the bride and bridesmaids , a flawless bridal look by JingJane Makeup, and the most beautiful blooms by Maison Vertumne. The bride's second dress by Needle & Thread kept the same airy vibe for the evening portion of the event. Zimeng and Bolun's wedding day was truly an intimate, timeless affair!
