Gunther and Vivien are a really fun couple with a great sense of humor. Not many people think to hire Cal’s mascot Oski the Bear for their wedding at the UC Berkeley Faculty Club. As an alumni, I was very excited at the prospect! Vivien is a crafty girl who found personalized cake toppers to match their wedding day outfits, and her wedding gown was based on a Baby the Stars Shine Bright (Japanese lolita brand) jumperskirt, handmade by a local seamstress.

Vivien and Gunther are a really fun couple, as you can probably from these terrifically silly, Valentine-themed engagement photos. We visited the restaurant where they got engaged and frolicked in a nearby park.

Oh, remember how I called them “silly” earlier? Engagement ring thumb war!
