Both Ling and myself are pretty much still feeling amazed at how well our wedding ran on the actual day. We’d both heard quite a few horror stories of things gone wrong from others before. Even our officiating minister, Reverend Huang, shared some of those stories that turned Ling white.:)

In reality, everything turned out perfect. The schedule of events we’d taken months to work out had time redundancy so we arrived early at every one of the four major events and with plenty of time to spare too. Matt, our best man, took both bullets from Ling’s “sisters” when I arrived at Bedok to buy the bride. Danyel, Isaac and Gwen played their roles as ring bearer, page boy, and flower girl perfectly; Ling’s Hai Sing alumni choir sang beautifully, as was the music making from Sean and Lok Hze on piano and violin. There was plenty of food to go around for the lunch reception – too much in fact so a good portion went to waste – and I was glad to see many guests actually enjoy the food. I didn’t get drunk during the evening Banquet either!

Now that it’s all over, we just can’t be grateful enough to the many persons and helpers who made the occasion possible and had it run without a hitch. The many helpers in reception, ushering, and traffic controlling from ARPC, and especially Grace and her husband Roger, who both put into play the plans we’d spent months making on the actual day. I was thrilled that my parents saw how well Grace and Roger were running things, and asked that we expressed our gratitude to both on their behalf too.

We’re also really thankful to both Matt, who flew from halfway around the world to be our best man, and Doreen, who’s been Ling’s best friend for 18 years now, and was our bridesmaid. We closed off the wedding celebrations with a second thankful dinner last night, and hopefully, Matt will be writing an entry on the event soon enough.:)
