Jamie and Wesley

It took a while for the stars to align for Jamie Lo and Wesley Wong, but when they did? It was magic. Having lived in multiple countries, the worldly couple decided to book all 35 rooms at Bali's Amanusa resort for a destination wedding weekend full of regional flair.

Here, Jaime, wearing a Chantilly lace Carolina Herrera gown, posed with Wesley, in N. Hoolywood on the resort grounds.
