She is now the super mom of 4 beautiful children and Katie could not imagine this wedding without her by her side.

Ghost
Candle Lighter
Ghost is Katie and Xu's little furry son. He was an integral part of their first meeting. And boy is he excited to attend the wedding. He has offered to usher the guests to their seats, but as he will be wearing his fur coat, we decided it was best for him to just walk with Daddy down the aisle. He is known for being very nosy and loves to give kisses. If you have hands available he will ask for pets.
