Thu and Duy

On December 22, 2024, family and friends gathered at Knotting Hill Place in Little Elm, TX, to celebrate the love story of Thu & Duy. The stunning venue set the stage for an intimate and elegant indoor ceremony, bringing warmth and joy to the chilly winter evening.

With 164 guests in attendance, the ceremony was nothing short of magical. As the wedding party made their way down the aisle, the classic elegance of Pachelbel’s Canon in D filled the air, performed live by Sweet Harmony musicians—Annie on violin and Elaine on cello. The moment became even more breathtaking as Thu walked down the aisle to “Daylight” by Taylor Swift, a heartfelt and romantic choice that perfectly captured the emotions of the day.

Renowned photographer Jonny Ngo was there to capture every unforgettable moment, ensuring that the beauty, love, and laughter of this special day would be cherished forever.

From the heartfelt vows to the joyful celebration that followed, Thu & Duy’s wedding was a beautiful testament to their love. Congratulations to the happy couple—may your journey together be filled with endless love and happiness!
