Vân Anh & Mark
Testimonial

The best team! We had a 4 day wedding and the Meraki team worked with us 9 months ahead of time to execute every detail. They had 7 team members on site for the actual wedding, I never felt stressed and they all looked after our guests as well. Proficient English, great resources for vendors and met all our needs.

What we loved

Vân Anh, a passionate pianist, and Mark, a DJ with a deep love for electronic music, are the kind of couple who turn their differences into opportunities for discovery. Through that unique blend of personalities and passions, Vân Anh & Mark continuously surprised us with their vision of creating a music festival of their own: #BURNINGNAM2023, a celebration that was vibrant, emotional, and unmistakably reflective of their story.

The materials

Vân Anh & Mark’s sense of style and love for music could be found in every detail of the wedding. Seating charts and table numbers were displayed on vinyl records, shimmering disco balls floated overhead, and an elaborate lighting stage design ensured that every moment felt illuminated and alive. A photobooth inspired by the cover of a fashion magazine transformed guests into the stars of their own memorable portraits.

The spirit

Music was at the heart of this love story, which meant bringing the wedding to life required extraordinary effort and preparation, especially the transportation of a full symphony orchestra along with professional sound and lighting systems from Saigon to Da Nang.

Against the vast backdrop of the sea, the notes of Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana flowed from the orchestra, embracing the passionate musician as she stepped into a new chapter of her life. It was a moment that touched every heart, as the music blended with the sound of the waves and the warm applause of family and friends, creating a scene that felt both moving and tender.

If the ceremony was a graceful classical composition, then the reception became a spectacular stage where contemporary music came fully to life. The powerful sound of electric guitar intertwined with a Jazz band, setting the tone for Vân Anh & Mark’s very own music festival: #BURNINGNAM2023.

Making their entrance alongside a traditional lion dance, a vibrant symbol of cultural heritage, Vân Anh and Mark instantly ignited the celebratory spirit of the evening. The night continued to build with remarkable performances, from powerful vocals and captivating DJ sets to energetic saxophone melodies and spontaneous mixtapes curated by the groom himself.

Rather than sharing a traditional first dance, Vân Anh and Mark chose something entirely their own. Together, they provided the music for everyone else to dance to: Vân Anh at the piano, Mark behind the DJ booth, accompanied by the heartfelt voice of a guest who was also a professional singer. As Imagine filled the room, the entire celebration came alive. It became the perfect opening to an unforgettable after-party, where no one wanted to leave the dance floor.
