weddings
i attended two wedding dinners the past week.
this picture was taken at thomas&eunice's wedding at orchard parade hotel by jamyz. if you go into his blog, you'll realise that he's really quite a talent! what was special was the bf was the emcee for the night! that was his first time, and naturally he was rather nervous prior to going on stage... thankfully he managed to hide it pretty well and became quite a natural towards the end. of course, he had his experienced chinese emcee partner to thank for that as well. :-) it was a rather cosy event, they had about 20+ tables, i believe the food was catered from tung lok's club chinois, so the standard was there, and the couple made it simple by only giving a brief thank-you speech at the end, no photo montage or videoshow. we were seated with his ex-colleagues (largely), after hearing so much about some of them, i finally got to meet them in person, and now i know why they got so much to talk about during tea-breaks, hehe.
these were taken at meta's wedding at four seasons hotel. it was slightly more elaborate than the norm, and i bet the bride put in alot of effort in the preparations. the food and service at four seasons was excellent, it has a terrific ballroom (pillarless and high-ceiling), she even engaged a live band and had a chocolate fondue fountain for the reception (although i saw it only later and didn't get to try). i had a good time catching up with my NUS classmates - gosh, the last time we met was also at a wedding, we really need to organise more class gatherings before they start taking place only at wedding events. oh and i must say meta was indeed ravishing that evening, and coupled with her sweet temper and gentleness (although we're exactly close friends, she'll probably top my list of sweet/gentle ladies), all i can say is her husband is really a lucky man!
