Angela & Kesler - Brewery Bhavana Wedding

What do you get when you combine a flower shop, brewery, bookstore, & Laotian dim sum restaurant? You get one of the Top 10 Coolest Restaurants in the World according to Forbes Magazine! Brewery Bhavana is Raleigh's most sought after location; they do not allow private events but an exception was made for Angela who has been an employee of Bida Manda, their sister restaurant, since it's opening 5 years ago. Angela got ready inside a hidden studio apartment above the Brewery and to incorporate Raleigh's rugged industrialism, they shared their first look atop a downtown parking deck overlooking the skyline. Their ceremony was held under a one of a kind, hand-made lotus chandelier and all floral arrangements were designed by Brewery Bhavana's in-house florist. Of course dinner and beer were also provided by both restaurants. Throughout the wedding, Angela made sure to honor the owner and this once in a lifetime opportunity by incorporating Laotian inspired desserts, favors & stationary.
