“Small weddings tend to be my favourite because the interaction between people at the wedding are genuine and heartfelt, easily allowing us to immortalise into pictures. After all, it’s the people that matter at a wedding. This is the intimate garden wedding of Korean couple Yong Chul and Ji Yeon at Carcosa Seri Negara in Kuala Lumpur,” said Andy Lim, the photographer for the wedding.

Ji Yeon’s dress got caught in her shoe strap while walking to the ceremony. Thanks to Yong Chul’s quick work, all is well again.

The Vow – Part 2

The Proposal

The very first homework was to find the ring. After a long search, I was deciding between buying a ready made ring or to customise one. Well, I had finally decided on a custom-made proposal ring with our initials H&W on the monture. I love the word H&W. It represents not only Hann & Wen but also Husband & Wife; Happy Wedding…

At the point of time, she was doing her advanced studies in Melbourne. I popped over to surprise her during her tutorials. I succeed of course 😀

Everything went smoothly and I managed to get my ring sorted out before the trip. I succeed in pranking her in her campus and I had only wished the success level would continue till the end. My birthday fell on the first day of Easter Break (which was during the planned trip to Melbourne), we both made the effort to dressed up formally and booked a place for two at a fine-dining restaurant.

Here’s the best part:

The restaurant was fully booked (Yeap. Easter night!). We were ushered to a table next to a group of family of kids. It was noisy, really. I was sad and frustrated. There’s no window of opportunity for me to propose in such a noise level. It’s ruined. I was thinking to have it done another time.

I spotted an Easter bunny chocolate (the one in foils) on our table. So I tied the ring on bunny when she was away. That moment, I prayed and prayed so hard that she would notice the ring before the end of the dinner. Unfortunately, my prayers were not answered. We were done with our dinner and was about to leave.

At that point of desperation, I went crazy and handed over the bunny to her and said the four magic words. She didn’t hear me (thanks to the crowd). My face,neck and ear were flushing red. My voice was shaky.

It felt as if I’ve screwed up the proposal, and yet she humbly and tearfully said yes.

And of course, this “well-planned” proposal will always be a playful banter to me. She won’t stop teasing me, not anytime soon!

The Story

We both attended the same high school, but it wasn’t the start of our story until uni days. After high school, we both left separately to Perth to study. It wasn’t love at the first sight! We had a mutual friend, Cheryl and was known to one another as Cheryl’s friend.

We kick-started the friendship pretty badly.We had bad impressions over one another. We were like “Oh, he/she is Cheryl’s good friend who is now in the same university as me.”

I first met her at the very first lecture of my freshman year. She was incredibly fashionably looking, but arrogant as a whole. She refused to even acknowledge my presence. Not a single hi or bye. And yet, slowly and steadily.. we talked.

Well, the best part about studying abroad is that we get to spend a lot of time with our friends. We go out at odd hours and had such a happy life. We are inseparable. We did our assignments and had lunch together almost on a daily basis. I will then walk her home, which was only a few blocks away from the campus.

We chatted a lot of MSN messenger (don’t laugh! It was the good old days where MSN was far more popular than Whatsapp is today) every single night. I was drawn to her charisma. She is an incredibly caring, kind-hearted and down to earth person. And…. we started dating.

Over the course of 7 years of our relationship, we fell apart and came back stronger, hand in hand. Early last year, I made up my mind to spend the rest of my life with her.

And so, the planning of the proposal begun! Take a look on what happened next.

Up to day of our ROM

We had our wedding photoshoot in Perth. That’s where we spent the happiest days together for four memorable years. We just simply love the weather, the colour of the sky in Perth and that little blue boathouse next to our comapus which we used to pass by everyday to uni.

We selected our theme to comprise of tiffany blue, pastel pink and white.

A big thank you to our photographer Bill Goh (Facebook) and videographer Sense Gallery (Facebook)

The Bride’s Attire

We had two dresses for my missus; one for the ceremony and one for luncheon.

The first dress is a custom-made mullet dress which is made to match the garden wedding.

The second dress is a simple white dress with bits of sequins from ForeverNew.

As for her footwear, we decided on a beautiful pair of Christian Louboutin Pigalle 120 pumps multi-colour heels.

The Groom’s Attire

I have decided to customise my grey suit to match with all my groomsmen. I have also another suit from Givenchy FW13 for the wedding dinner.

As for my footwear, we decided on Patent Oxford Shoes from Saint Laurent.

The Big Day

It was held at Eight Lido, Lido Beach in Johor Bahru. All of our close friends and family members were there to share this joyous day with us.

I know that she had always wanted a garden wedding, and I gave her this.

We will be hosting our wedding banquet together with my elder brother;s at the end of this year. My dad wanted it to be like this. I was really eager to having my solemnisation ceremony, just for me.
