Pamela's wedding day!

Pamela & Ah V (Vincent) had their gatecrash and wedding banquet yesterday!

So fun to be part of a wedding celebration from a family point of view cos I was never invited for my elder cousins weddings (for the morning gatecrash) when I was younger cos of I was born in the year of the Tiger and apparently it's bad luck for the bride to have a Tiger born girl in the wedding party. So I'm only allowed to attend the wedding dinners and had to miss all the fun in the morning. Boo.
They signed their marriage certificate at ROM earlier this month. Both side parents plus Le hubby & myself went! It's my first time seeing an ROM ceremony at the place itself!
The famous flower arch I kept seeing on other people's photos.... I finally see it in real life! Hahahhaha!
Congratulations Mr and Mrs Aw!!
Pam bought a giant ๅŒๅ–œ word which I pasted on the stairs. It fits perfectly! Made the living room look super festive!!
Mama Chew bought really pretty flowers the day before the wedding day!
The gatecrash started at around 7am and I woke up at 6.30am.

Oops. 

Wanted to wake up earlier to help Mama Chew with the preparations but I stayed up late to prepare for a party event that's happening the very next day so I couldn't wake up. ๐Ÿ˜…
Pam watching from the comfort of her room!! Super love her wallpaper.

Her makeup artist is super efficient! Got everything done so quickly!
Vincent had to recite promises and vows out in Mandarin to Papa and Mama Chew before he's allowed to go up and pick his bride. ๐Ÿ˜‚

The bridesmaids printed the words in ็นไฝ“ๅญ— so he had to ask his groomsmen for help. So naughty ahh!! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
Awwwwwwws.

Get it?

Mr and Mrs Aw. Plural?

Ok nvm. ๐Ÿ˜…
Preparing to go to Vincent's house!
Sneaked a quick photo before I got yelled at by the photographer. ๐Ÿ˜…
Super ❤ Mama Chew with her happy smiley face!
Angbao timeee
Family picture!
Wefie while waiting for caterer to come!

I set up my mini buffet set and prepared fruits and desserts. Le hubby was supposed to snap a pic of it but.... he didn't. 

He only had ONE job. ๐Ÿ˜ก sometimes he so blur I wanna smack him. 

Don't know if he is really blur or don't bother listening to instructions. ๐Ÿค”
Awesome view from our room at MBS!

Checked in around 2pm+ and wanted to go for a swim at the infinity pool but didn't have time cos I had to go for my makeup.

๐Ÿ˜ฃ

So sad. Hope next time I'll have another opportunity again cos I've never been up at the rooftop before.

The banquet is held at Jasmine Ballroom! What a coincidence. Heh heh.
The meeting room was really pretty! Love the floor to ceiling windows!
My hairstyle! Really happy with it! Thank you @pamelic for sponsoring my hair and makeup so I won't look so "stay home auntie". Heehee.
Taking selfie before the ceremony starts!
The official solemnization ceremony on the outdoor deck!

Their emcee is James Yang! Same as ours. He is THE BEST investment you can make for your wedding dinner. The difference between a memorable dinner where everyone (from young to old) is entertained instead of being bored and just waiting for the food.

You can scrimp and save on everything else but an emcee is something you cannot save on. Don't ask your friend to do it unless he is James Yang!
Dessert table!

Le hubby so greedy kept munching on the biscuits. ๐Ÿ˜‘
Photo album!
My ๅงจๅฆˆๅฆˆ and mother came too!
The 3 siblings!
I don't like to admit it but I think i resemble my mum in some ways. ๐Ÿค

She's 20 years older than me. And she's been telling me that when she was my age, she already have 3 children. ๐Ÿ˜’
My ๅงจๅฆˆๅฆˆ!

Wany and @nateyang came too! ๐Ÿ˜Š they always come our house to hang out so they are practically family.

I don't know what's up with the Mario hat but le hubby seems very fascinated by it. ๐Ÿ˜‘
Pushed the 2 of them to go and take photos before their guests arrived cos they won't have time to do so later. 

I was complaining to le hubby why he lock me up in the makeup room cos it is so much better mingling and saying hi to guests since there won't be much time to do so during the actual dinner. 

He diplomatically replied that I was sick back then and had to rest... and it's a surprise when guests see me during the first march in. ๐Ÿ˜‘๐Ÿ˜’
While waiting for the first march in. ๐Ÿ˜‚

The family marched in first before the bride and groom. First time I see it being done.. but Pam said it's not rare and Vincent's elder sister did it for her wedding too. 

Shy lah! Had to walk in with spotlight while hundreds of people look at you. But can relive our wedding day a bit. Hahahahahha!

Another selfie! Heh.
Minister Chew will give his speech now. Lol!

I bought my dress from David Bridal. It's under the White by Vera Wang series and is actually a bridesmaid dress. ๐Ÿ˜… I bought another long gown but the cutting was quite cui so I sent it back.

I'm just a supporting personnel. Bride chio can liao!!
I don't like those people who like to ๆŠข้•œๅคด (snatch spotlight) from the bride.

I attended weddings before where the mother/mother-in-law/sister/sister-in-law/bridesmaid wear until super grand and you are left wondering who is the bride especially if you are a friend of the groom and it's been years since you all met up and you don't really know his wife. Or that one bitchy friend who wants to upstage the bride & wear until her boobs spill out and bareback until might as well go naked. ๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ค
Really glad to be part of her wedding and now I'm looking forward to Cheryl's or my little sister's wedding! Though for my little sister I won't be able to be an active participant due to complications of family relations. ๐Ÿ˜‘
