Just got home from the very lovely wedding of Gelle and Joey. I’ve actually been looking forward to this for quite some time as I think I haven’t seen the two of them since I was in SG almost two years ago, though of course, Gelle and I have managed to keep ourselves updated through YM and email. And I know she’s been planning for this perfect day and I can’t help it – her excitement is contagious and I just basically love weddings!Loved the food: prawns, carrot rice, beef and lechon, and lots of dessert!
Loved the details:
Loved the bride’s gown (and the entourage):
With P&G friends:
I was a reader during the mass and was told by the coordinator that tube tops are not allowed – you need a shawl, if ever. So panic set in the day before the wedding when I realized that I had nothing to wear as all my dresses are tubes! Ended wearing the only dress I could find in my closet that would fit the requirement. Whew!

I loved the couple’s entrance number for the reception. I’ve seen a lot of these on youtube and I know a lot who would have loved to attempt it (I actually attempted it but Ipe put his foot down; my high school best friend Mheng pulled it off in their wedding although only the groom sang) but this one is really touching and funny at the same time. It’s a good thing I had my cellphone video on ready, surprisingly, and was able to record it:
I loved the on-site wedding video – the best I’ve seen so far. Even Ipe was impressed and he’s usually suplado when giving out praises.
A very beautiful wedding – I almost wanted to cry during the father/daughter and mother/son dance and the parents’ speeches.
Best wishes to you, Gelle and Joey!
It's a Charmed Life
