Having a cosy wedding doesn’t have to mean forgoing glitz, glamour and romance. As a matter of fact, it can be all that and more if you’re celebrating your wedding in the Grand Millennium Kuala Lumpur ballroom. Thanks, Elisa Florals, for doing a wonderful job, and Louis Gan Photography for capturing these details for us.
We’re besotted with these drop-dead gorgeous styled bridal portraits! An art gallery is the perfect venue as it allows you to start with a blank canvas, and this concept of incorporating art into romance is a refreshing breath of fresh air. A modern take on everything, from attire to styling, it also shows that neutrals and monochrome palettes can be just as exciting. Many thanks to Ribka of Ever Mine Ever Thine Ever Ours for this chic concept, and to WeFreeze Photography for capturing these shots perfectly.
Ribka of Ever Mine Ever Thine Ever Ours: “The concept for the shoot was inspired by One Line Art, which is a simple yet intricate type of art. As an art and design enthusiast, I started to develop the idea, and the venue selection was obvious – we knew an art gallery would be the perfect place with its white walls, concrete floors and plenty of natural light.
With stunning rooftop views of the Petronas Twin Towers outdoors, and art deco inspired walls and ID indoors, the W Kuala Lumpur is more than just a venue for you and your loved one to tie the knot. The contemporary and trendy space is a perfect play on glamourous and chic with bright pops of colour and art. Many thanks to Joshua Koh Photography for capturing these Instagram-worthy shots, pulled together by The Wedding Notebook magazine; it was wonderful a playground of colour and creativity.
The décor was centred around 50 shades of pantone pink from the guest escort cards to all the wedding stationaries with creative typography, perfected with the hot pink dragon fruit plating provided by W Kuala Lumpur. Known for their cocktail curation according to any theme, the W Kuala Lumpur also perfectly pairs their drinks and décor with delectable desserts and unparalleled cake design. An abundance of pink flowers and other bright blooms, was spot on according to our moodboard all brought together by Pathway Events & Design. Touches of gold and the use of ghost chairs complimented the creative tablescapes set against the artistic mirrored staircase – every single corner was Instagram-worthy!
We also have the honour of having Alan Yun and his lovely fiancée Emily for this styled shoot. For this shoot we got Emily something chic – a two piece, intricate lace top with tulle skirt – from Designer Bridal Room, we love how they have something for every type of brides. Alan looking dapper and confident as usual in a royal blue LORD’s tailor suit. We also glam her up with a pastel pink number, to match he was in a blush pink shirt inside and grey suit.
Blue is one of the warmest colours, whether found in Mother Nature’s various hues or in the Four Seasons Resort Langkawi’s brand new décor, which channels Moroccan vibes with vibrant cobalt tones. Featuring spectacular views of the azure sky meeting the emerald waters of the Andaman Sea at the horizon, and flanked by tropical rainforests and limestone cliffs, the resort is as dramatic as it is serene and romantic.
These beautiful shots were captured by Peter Herman Photography, and many thanks to Darling Florist Langkawi for taking our moodboard and helping to bring the entire look to life.
What a joy to have our first project of the year at the beautiful and contemporary Junior Ballroom of the Le Méridien Putrajaya! It was great getting to style a different space, even though we still haven’t quite moved on from that gorgeous styled shoot we did at their pool area last year.
Thank you, Jason of MJK Photography, for capturing it all in photos.
A wedding gown for her and smart suit for him, a bridal bouquet, the couple’s favourite beach and a wedding photographer – how’s this for simple yet elegant wedding portraits? Add a beautifully calligraphed card with the wedding details, and this could also be an ocean-themed ‘save the date’ card or wedding invitation.
Check out this minimalist styled shoot that took place on a stretch of beach with a unique landscape in Hong Kong. We love how the album turned out: romantic and dreamy, washed in sunlight and set against a backdrop of glistening blue-grey ocean. Marvellous shots, Savour Productions!
We at The Wedding Notebook have been savouring the romantic combination of floral and tulle in couture bridal fashion these past few seasons, so much so that we decided to roll up our sleeves and get into some theme planning fun for our recent lunch event at The Westin Kuala Lumpur.
We found great joy in sourcing and mixing fabrics for this themed affair – a dreamy marriage of blush, pink and off white with a touch of gold. There was a mix of ruffles and tulle for the table settings, which flowed in perfect keeping with the hues of the theme, and some stationery as well, courtesy of yours truly. Spring Cottage, thank you for creating such a dreamy look for us, and thanks also to Inlight Photos for faithfully delivering good photos.
It’ll almost feel like you’re getting married at home – the Five-Bedroom Villa at The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa is a private villa with an infinity pool and gorgeous seaside views of the Andaman Sea.
For this shoot, bright, cheery pops of colour were paired with modern table settings, transforming the villa into a perfect space to celebrate your union. Deep hues of pink and green, together with bursts of yellow and white, as well as touches of glitter gave it all an elegant touch.
For pre-dinner drinks, The Float is a great place for guests to mingle and enjoy the sunset as they sip on customised wedding cocktails. This beautifully styled space at The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa was the work of Tie The Knot, and the photos were captured by Inlight Photos. Also, many thanks to one of the leading florists in Langkawi, Darling Florist & Events Langkawi, for their gorgeous blooms – the flowers truly brought everything to life.
With the boundless Black Sea lending an air of mystery and the romantic changing colours of the sunset sky, it was a picture perfect moment for the bride and groom to bask in each other’s love after exchanging their vows in hauntingly beautiful Crimea. The dreaminess of the bride’s lace gown, lilac ribbons and floral bouquet was a beautiful contrast against the enigmatic rock beach and waves. Thanks to Alexander Santi for this lovely set of photos, and to JRweddings for pulling together a beautiful shoot.
Julia Romancheva of JRweddings: “Probably every one of us would love to hear these words uttered at our marriage ceremony, ‘Wherever you’re going, I’m going your way.’ We knowingly chose this foreland overlooking the boundless Black Sea for this couple’s marriage ceremony as there is no better way to emphasise the power of those words.”
The breathtaking grandeur of white florals paired with tall gold candelabras and elaborate tablescapes truly set an elegant and dramatic aesthetic to this wedding reception. Set up against the dark curtain backdrops and opulent chandeliers, gilded Tiffani chairs and tea lights, this was the perfect combination of romantic colours and textures. How a simple mix of round and long table arrangements can make a ballroom look so much more interesting! Many thanks for this gorgeous set up, Pathway Events & Design, and to Adam Ong Photography for capturing these stunning reception photos.
We believe there are many things in life that should be celebrated – the milestones of course, like birthdays, engagements and weddings. But sometimes, it’s the simple pleasures that we need to remember – the downtime and quiet moments alone.
This styled shoot at The Pondok by Craft Kitchen kept it casual and down-to-earth with natural tones peppered with feminine hues. We love the textures of the leafy greens and the tablescape’s rustic setup. Many thanks to Sherly of Tie the Knot for styling this shoot, BlueCicada Photography for capturing these beautiful photos, and Nigel Sia Storytelling for the video.
We can’t get enough of this colour pairing: the softness of blush pink contrasts perfectly with glitter and gold, creating a girly yet glamorous bridal shower. Completing the look is the addition of geometric shapes and loose leafy eucalyptus textures to the tablescapes, gilded utensils and glass candleholders. Thanks to The Final Fling for this beautiful setup, they definitely paid attention to every single detail and ensured that everything was chic, whimsical and stunning.
