I attended a wedding last Sat at St Regis. Wow...I guess it might have been the grandest that I had ever been to. So happening and so much eyeball of the event that my facebook was flooded by their wedding dinner photos, their album, their montage posted up by the different individuals for the whole of 1 week and still counting. I was thinking, 'Wow, this couple is really like the Brangelina of the Indo Svc!' And they do look like Brad and Angelina...
We brought along Georgie with us that evening, and it was really a wrong move. Though I enjoyed Georgie's company (coz he really helped us get quite a lot of limelight that evening hee hee)...but I totally missed out the embasking into the luxurious ambience, great fine dining cuisine, the fellowship with other friends and the many performances of the live band. That's b'coz Georgie kept hopping, fridgeting, playing with the cutlery for the whole night and I have to keep on carrying him in and out of the ballroom. He was really funny... amazingly, he didnt cry b'coz of the loud march-in/march-out and montage music (in fact, he was quite captivated by the montages and videos) but he cried at the 'Cheers' (The finer version of Yum Seng) and at the laughter of the guests..
A few items that's quite special:
(Of coz, other than the bride's beautiful gown specially purchased from Europe, and their many distinguished guests for the evening) It was the dance that the bride had with her dad, and in the middle of the dance, the groom came and took over her hand. SO SWEET AND ROMANTIC!! It's like the dance in 'Beauty and the Beast'... Oops, no, I mean it's like the dance Cinderella had with her prince. I had wanted that for my wedding! but then coming to think of it, I think my dad would feel really awkward if I were to arrange for that. After all, my parents (and Yo's parents as well) were more singlet and shorts type, karaoke king and queen, and it was more fun to have 'Yum Seng' than 'Cheers' for our family.
Another amazing thing was the decor of the chinese church hall during the matrimony. Their theme colour was white and red. So, our dear chinese church hall green curtains were all changed to nice creamy white!!
Anyway, no matter how great the wedding has turned out to be. Every bride will still feel that her own wedding is the best! That's because after the last handshake, and last 'thank you for coming' you've said at the end of the evening, what's most blissful is when you woke up the next morning and found that you've married the most wonderful guy in the whole world...
(Aww......... :p)
