AAL-3096

Greetings chewys! You all very emo cuz it’s Monday right? Haiii me too. Didn’t have time to work on my blog on weekdays so I did this over the weekend. It’s another post flooded with many many photos taken by Jack and Aaron from ZX Workshop Photography during our wedding banquet! 😛 If you have missed out on our earlier post on our wedding gatecrash and tea ceremony, here it is!

When misterchewy and I were looking for our wedding banquet venue, we were quite sure that our main focus was on the food. Everything else was pretty much secondary. We only went to Orchard Parade Hotel because we love Tunglok and the food is always remarkable.

Actually, I kinda regretted a little after making our deposit because the ballroom is quite small and the ceiling is low. Oh wells.. It was comforting to know that everyone loved the food that night! 🙂

After my MUA was done with my hair and makeup, I decided to go down and mingle with our guests during the cocktail reception.

Our emcees, Ivan and Maureen.

Our wedding photoshoot montage was being played right before our first march in. It was done solely by misterchewy a couple of days before the wedding. I chose the English song while he chose the Mandarin one. Enjoy! 😀

Before our first march in! I was feeling damn nervous!

I also dreaded the moment when we had to present our speeches because I did not and refused to prepare for mine! Hahaha. I just think that thanking through actions is more important than through a thank you speech.

ZX8_4931

AAL-3252

On the contrary, the husband was very well prepared and had everything that he wanted to say typed out in his iPhone. At that point, I was beginning to panic over what I had to say. LOL.

He also dedicated a song 你是我最深爱的女人 (direct translation: You are the woman that I love the most) to me. Ummm not the entire song la. Just a small part of the chorus.

ZX8_4939

To be honest, it was kinda awkward for me. It was like.. Am i supposed to cry or something?! Hahaha.

ZX8_4943

He ended the song abruptly and asked me “Okay?” Wah lao machiam he owe me one like that lor. -_-

ZX8_4948

When it was my turn, I admitted to everybody that I didn’t prepare for my speech and proceeded with some thank yous here and there. LOL.

After we got off the stage, we didn’t have time for a single morsel of food and went round for the table-to-table phototaking session.

As soon as desserts were being served, we had to prepare to see our guests off. From the beginning to the end of our actual wedding, the entire experience felt very surreal. It’s an indescribable feeling.. Heh 😛
