With Valentine’s Day approaching in a few days’ time, we are feeling the love in the air and vibing to some good old love songs. One Republic may not be known primarily for their love songs, but the band’s number All This Time fits Zhao Farn and Sue Lyn’s wedding day edit perfectly. The melody and lyrics spell out the unspoken emotions on their special day: All this time/ We were waiting for each other All this time/ I was waiting for you We got all these words/ Can't waste t

Huei Min and Chwan Long had a wedding line up that pays respect to their Chinese roots by integrating several ancient wedding day customs that are both meaningful and fun. The gate-crashing game, for one, was the highlight of the day. When Chwan Long arrived at Huei Min’s house, his brother troops were met by the bridesmaids who had planned different tasks for them to complete, to prove the groom worthy of marrying the bride. The groom was asked to draw a short comic, before

“Our imperfections make us perfect together. I’ll continue to do my best, prove to you that I will be the one and only for you. I love you.” Juen and Nadia’s wedding really got us feeling a mixed bag of emotions. The couple is so fun to be around, making the wedding such a boisterous event filled with many moments of good belly laughs; but at the same time, the affection between them is so tender and loving, spreading contagiously to infect every living souls with happiness,

The colour red plays a vital role in Chinese weddings for its message of love, fertility, and loyalty, among other auspicious notes. Another important colour is gold, which symbolises wealth. The combination of these two colours was used throughout Yoon Leen and Benjamin’s wedding – from the huge red draping at home for tea ceremony, down to the smallest details on their invitation card – to honour the couple’s Chinese heritage. After the morning session ended with traditiona

Ewe Lee and Wei San’s wedding is a living proof that tradition does not equate boring and old-fashion. Their very traditional Chinese gate-crashing and tea ceremony were done in a vibrant atmosphere. The groom’s very fun personality cracked up the sister troops during the Q&A session before the gentlemen were allowed to receive the bride. The games were also planned brilliantly to make every witness laughing at the top of their lungs at the silliness of these brother troops.

When it comes to weddings, the ceremony itself is often thought to be the only highlight of the day. But truth to be told, every moment before the ceremony is memorable as well. We love the dynamic between the couple hours before they walk down the aisle because it represents the purest excitement and anticipation within them, for marking a new milestone in their lives, together as one. The bonding between the bride and her bridesmaids, groom and his groomsmen, are equally pr

We found ourselves smiling while going through the footage of Lick and Annee’s gate-crashing game during the morning ceremony. The bride sat demurely in her Qun Kua, a beautiful work of two-piece jacket and skirt combo adorned with traditional embroideries of dragons and phoenixes, as the groom made their way to go through the many challenging games prepared by the bridesmaids. It was a joyous occasion celebrating the union of the newlyweds and their families in the most Mala

Raise your hand up high if you’re ready for a fun-filled Chinese wedding! We don’t wanna give away too much yet, so here’s a short highlight of Karen and Andrew’s wedding. A quick look at the attire and you can already tell that these lovebirds know how to have fun. The brother troops are all prep up from head to toe, making sure they look on point and matches with the theme. Wait till you watch the full video though – their wedding is also a mix of emotion: tears and all the

Tradition never dies; it lives in the people, and the soul they carry with them. In today’s modern setup, it is always a delightful sight to witness couples who embrace their traditions and appreciate the roots of cultures passed on from generations; and perhaps to the next and future generations. We have had a great time documenting Celia and TJ’s wedding (and their pre-wedding too in Australia too) as they are so fun to work with. Their playful characters are magnified thro

When it comes to hosting a wedding filled with laughers and tears of joy, the Chinese know how to do it right: fun (and sometimes hilarious) gate crashing games, tear-jerking tea ceremony, festive splash of auspicious red colour, and meaningful traditions that brings important values to the wedding. While we can give tons of reasons to explain our love for capturing Chinese weddings, the best way is to let this series of photos tell you why! #ourwork #armadalephotography #tip
