It’s not often that you find large animal figurines and a carousel underneath the magnificent chandeliers of a ballroom for a wedding, but this is exactly what Jane Chuck and Hanpin Ma’s wedding entailed. Also known as Instagram royalty in the Malaysian fashion scene, the couple ensured that their wedding perfectly encapsulated their personalities and love for each other. With Jane’s chic style and Hanpin’s classic tastes, this was a celebration to remember! Many thanks to Louis Gan Photography for this beautiful set of photos.
Weddings tend to signify the turning point of going from your past into your future, and for these newlyweds, that came in the form of their wedding celebrations. Opting for traditional and nostalgia first, with a church solemnisation and tea ceremony, they let loose with their friends on the second day, surrounded by nature and with much dancing beneath the night sky. Many thanks to Bloc Memoire Photography for capturing this gorgeous wedding.
Desiree: “Being married by Msgr Ambrose, who had journeyed with us for a year and knew us so well, was so special. Other memorable moments included the very special vow ceremony led by my childhood friend, my brother’s impromptu decision to sing us a song while we danced, Daniel’s surprise performance that moved me to tears, and the totally outrageous fertility dance performed by my friends that also moved me to tears, but from laughing too hard! The whole weekend was truly more amazing than we ever imagined it could be. When I think back on the weekend, what I remember most vividly is an overwhelming sense of gratitude to be surrounded by all our loved ones as we celebrated our relationship and commitment to each other.
“We decided to celebrate our wedding across two days so that we could enjoy a more intimate and meaningful experience with each other and our loved ones. The first day was when we honoured our chosen traditions with our families, beginning with a solemnisation in church followed by a tea ceremony and lunch at Empress. The nostalgic theme unfolded naturally as we allowed our decisions on food, décor and favours to be guided by our memories of growing up. We chose Empress because we were both raised in huge Chinese families that always gathered around delicious home cooked feasts, and we wanted a venue that had really good Chinese cuisine. We also loved the classy yet relaxed setting by the river with lots of natural light, not to mention the incredible hospitality we experienced from the Empress team. We loved it so much that it’s now become our go-to venue for family celebrations!
No stone was left unturned at this beautifully conceptualised Wes Anderson-inspired wedding. Full of decorative rugs and feathers, the newlyweds paid homage to Anderson’s quirky and distinctive aesthetic, from the colour palette and the décor to even his trademark symmetry. The bohemian style and festival vibe was an unconventional choice, but what an amazing wedding it turned out to be! Thanks to ChongYee Photography for capturing all the intricate details.
We’re completely captivated by this forest wedding! Almost straight out of a movie set, the details and decorative elements all came together for a picture perfect celebration. Inspired by the Twilight movie, this bride’s dream wedding featured lush drapes and hanging ferns, as well as chandeliers and woven hangings, in a clean green and white palette. These beautifully captured shots by Iluminen are absolutely breathtaking!
With hints of rustic goodness to match the groom’s personality and ethereal elegance to suit the bride, we love how both themes came together beautifully to create the “Midnight over Atlantis” concept for this wedding.
Held at City Harvest Church, the wedding’s main inspiration came from the couple’s favourite Disney cartoon, ‘The Little Mermaid’, and featured a contrasting blend of delicate white flowers, rustic greens and elegant deep blue tones. Many thanks to Arch & Vow for these brilliant captures!
Is there anything more intimate than tying the knot at a little farm set on a hill, surrounded by your family and friends? Never mind the vibrant green hues of Mother Nature, the cosy wooden textures of the rustic barn, the simple decorations and the amazing food, the stars of this wedding were undoubtedly the newlyweds and the joyous celebration of their love! We really like how this wedding gave the couple and their loved ones an opportunity to get right back to the basics of nature. Many thanks to hellojanelee for capturing this lovely set of photos.
There’s something about Felicia and Nico’s bohemian chic wedding that we cannot get enough of. It incorporates elements of nature, along with a certain romanticism and individuality.
The bride rocked her flowy, dreamy dress with lace detailing from Bramanta Wijaya Sposa, plus a fresh flower crown to match. Her rustic bouquet with red charm peonies and mixed cacti corsages for her bridal party all added to the boho feel.
Throw in indie rock ballads and funk music, set against the serene backdrop of the Damai Indah Golf and Country Club, and you have yourself a wedding to remember! Thanks so much, Axioo, for sharing these gorgeous photos with us.
Resembling a hanging garden or even an enchanted forest, this wedding at the Glasshouse @ Seputeh was the perfect outdoor celebration – indoors. The lush flowers and baby’s breath in sleek clear glassware, as well as the classic colour palette of white, yellow and green added a touch of understated elegance, while fairy lights and the use of rose gold glitter gave the wedding a glamorous yet dreamy feel.
We especially love the bride’s unconventional blue wedding dress with floral appliqués, gorgeously complemented by a wedding bouquet of white orchids. The most breathtaking piece of décor was the hanging tree of white baby’s breath, fairy lights and clear bulb vases – simple yet dramatic. Many thanks to Plan A Production for this incredible set of wedding photos!
It’s not often that you’ll find a bride opting to wear an unconventional wedding gown, but this bride did, and she looked stunning in her sparkly silver wedding gown and chic hairdo. Save for the bridesmaids, who were in flowing silver dresses, guests were asked to come dressed in black.
The cool starry backdrop, geometric decorative elements, sparkly disco lights and cool blue lighting all made for a very cool, very fun party to celebrate the union of two people. Many thanks to Peter Herman Photography for capturing the decorative aesthetics and creative styling by The Next Best Thing so well!
Do check out also their fun filled bridal portraits; we can’t get enough of these two.
Natalie: “It felt more like a party with close friends instead of a traditional wedding party. All our guests showed up in the requested dress code, which really let the shades of silver and glitter pop.
“I loved the edgy geometrical décor of the dessert bar and table settings, as well as the retro disco ball for the dance floor. Everything was done by Shyyi of The Next Big Thing who knew exactly what I wanted for my dream wedding: something cool and unconventional with a touch of glam.
“As for the geometry concept, my husband and I have entirely different personalities but we’re still better together. The geometry shapes represent the two of us coming together as one despite our different edges.”
Tips from the bride: “Planning a wedding takes a lot of time, energy and focus, so whether you know what you want or have no idea at all, a wedding planner can help you to define your theme, concept, mood, and the emotions you want to set. Getting a professional wedding planner will help you save a lot of time and all you have to do is take care of yourself and enjoy every moment of your special day with your dream man.”

Set in the middle of a misty, dreamy forest and with a striking injection of colour, this wedding perfectly encapsulated the bride and groom’s personality. Thanks to their love for colour and pompoms, the Pine Hill in Bandung was transformed into a fun, bright festival in celebration of this joyous occasion.
Some things were kept simple, such as the bridesmaids’ dresses, which were in silver grey. But we were absolutely blown away by the bride’s reception gown, with its full orange skirt that perfectly complemented the many textures and colours of this soiree. An additional decorative note that we loved – the giant dream catcher set in the middle of their wedding arch. What a perfect design choice! Many thanks to Fire, Wood & Earth for this amazing set of photos, and to Bozza Event Organizer for bringing such a crazy concept to life.
How many couples can say they tied the knot at a cat café? We love how this couple really made their wedding their own. As cat lovers, it only made sense for them to exchange their vows at a cat café, in front of their loved ones and surrounded by their favourite animals.
The beautiful bridal bouquet was all the flowers they had, and their sweet colour combo of white, pink, blue and lavender was topped off with whimsical elements such as gilded dinosaurs that acted as ring holders. Many thanks to AndroidsinBoots for capturing this quirky yet lovely set of wedding photos!
This was a wedding of contrasts, as the venue was rustic with its exposed brick walls yet industrial with its steel staircase and high ceilinged warehouse interior. Strung with lights and set up in a combination of yellow and light grey, this wedding was literally brought together by the efforts of the bride and groom. Their DIY project brought them closer together and they made sure their wedding reflected their personalities and love story. We love the little details too: succulents in the bride’s bouquet, and the various decorative accents. Many thanks to Andrew Yep Photographie for capturing this beautiful wedding.
