\u201cOur wedding day can be compared to a clear sky, a rainbow and a bright sun that can be seen after a perfect storm,\u201d says bride Akina. And that\u2019s not just a metaphor. A week before her New York wedding to John (he\u2019s from Houston but was living in Yokohama, Japan, at the time; she\u2019s Japanese and was living in NYC), Hurricane Sandy devastated the city, putting the couple\u2019s wedding, along with countless people\u2019s lives, livelihoods and well-being, in very serious jeopardy. Yet somehow the couple\u2019s determined out-of-town guests managed to get to the city safely and on time to enjoy the magnificently chic and warmly multicultural celebration of Akina and John\u2019s true love. To document their perfect day, the pair brought top Houston photographer Steve Lee of Steve Lee Weddings\/Khloe Madison<\/a> to New York, where he captured this beautiful wedding in all its splendor\u2014the pops of pink, the whimsical butterflies, the myriad Yoruban (the groom is a first-generation Nigerian-American) and Japanese elements that went into the couple\u2019s festivities. We get tingles of joy\u2014and, truth be told, a couple of tears in our eyes\u2014looking at Lee\u2019s photos of this magical day. No storm could keep these two apart, and, we are certain, no storm ever shall. Congratulations to the newlyweds!<\/p>\n
