Our wedding on 25 June 07 went on well - with a few bloopers but thats okay. It was an eventful day with everyone running around to help ensure that our wedding is a success. On recount, I had only slept 1 hour while my two other girlfriends who had slept over also hardly caught any wink. Ended up all three of us were in a dazed the entire day. Hubby on the other hand also hardly slept a wink. Last minute preparation ended too late at his end, as his parents were also down with diarrhea after eating some food that might have been contaminated. My parents also slept around 3 am due to the last minute preps for the hair combing ceremony etc. My sis was really kind to have woken up early to help film my hair combing ceremony. Thanks zillions Joyce for doing that for me! :-)
Everyone had their share of fun and our friends and family really went all way out to help us. Thank you brothers and sisters, our best friends, who had jumped in to help when we needed them most. Nothing could express our gratitude for all the help rendered. Special thanks to (not in sequence):
1- Ivy who had stepped up to coordinate while Dino and Louise were busy ushering the Lim family guests.
2- Rachel, Zoe and Henri who had risked their lives blocking the door and went through the trouble to find my place (its not that easy to locate btw). Henri again, for agreeing to help host the event for us together with TY. Great work girl!
3- Chloe and HL who took half day to help out at the wedding reception, and helping to set up the place.
4- TY who had graciously agreed to be our MC, fixed up our emcee script and hosted the event for us - Gosh that was a really professionally done emcee work. Somebody grab this guy!
5- BK, HF, TH who had risked their lives protecting the groom and trying ways to get him past the door in the morning, offering chauffeur service where required, and trying to keep the groom out of all the gory details at reception.
6- Terence, my niece's and nephew's godfather who had slept early to make sure that he get to my place in time for photoshoot, and for offering his photography services for free. We thank you for flying back for our wedding and keeping my girlfriends entertained with his charms.... hehe
7- Angela Park who called all the way from Korea to send her well wishes. Thank you. Sorry I was not able to answer your call.
And to all those who had sacrificed time and money to help us - a big thank you!
We would like to take this opportunity to apologise to all our friends and colleagues who had attended our wedding, for not being able to take table photos with them due to time constraints. Our focus has always been to ensure our guests are able to retire early to prepare for the next working/schooling day. Unfortunately the decision for phototaking was only determined halfway through the wedding dinner and time was already running out, and there are close to 40 tables on hald. Please accept our sincere apologies for not being able to accomodate to everyone's request.
Subsequent to the wedding, I also learnt that there were some misunderstandings in the background that resulted in some unhappiness between friends at the wedding reception. For some reasons which I do not wish to discuss here, Hubby and I were really concerned and actually lost sleep over them on our wedding night and the days that followed. We were sorry that such things happened though we also know that both parties meant well and had no intentions of creating any animosity. Nonetheless, we are glad that the matter has been resolved amicably and both parties have become friends and agreed to meet up for dinner.
Once again, thank you so much for being there to celebrate our matrimony with us.
