Project - Wife (PRIVATE ALBUM)
"Union of the House of 梁 Liang and the House of 黄 Huang"
It started with a quaint marriage proposal custom, learnt from the Far Western Regions to propose to me future bride. "Wai Kit, je vous aime. Voulez-vous devenir mon epouse?" so I went in three languages, French, English and Cantonese, hand over heart, solitaire diamond ring in hand, right knee on the ground as taught by Jean in a flurry of e-mails in the months leading up to the event.
Moment captured for prosperity by dear friend Jean who's hands thankfully didn't shake, so caught up in the moment was he. The surprise on her face? Priceless!
Then I've got me car to go with me house so as to woo me wife. She be impressed enough to don fer me a wee bridal dress. The dress she finally selected after a long afternoon of going through the entire store's wardrobe is a lacy bodice that shows off her curves beautifully.
Our first two wedding banquet locations have been selected, the Marriot in Singapore and the Grand Plaza Parkroyal in Kuala Lumpur, leaving only the Ipoh banquet yet to be selected.
Koi Hin has graciously agreed to MC both Singapore and KL banquets and both of us are extremely grateful to have such good friends like him to make life that much more fun.
There will not be a bestman or bridesmaid for our wedding as they are rather redundant and not the least customary in our wedding traditions but there will certainly be many "Heng Tai" and "Chee Mui" to help out with the rites and festivities. The other reason of course is that the term Bestman is really... a misnomer as far as we're concerned. :p
Our wedding rings were made by Wai Kit's parents who used to be jewellers. Both Wai Kit and I are rather excited over this. Her ring is a nice 1/2 circle of 9 diamonds set into a simple band while mine is a similar band, minus the diamonds of course.
"Components they come together, in bits and pieces through both time and space... to march in unison, increasingly in rhythm..."
