Writing about Cate’s wedding reminded me that I’ve been in several wedding entourages already. 9, to be specific. Cate’s was the last one because well… the pandemic happened. My friend Maya had asked me to be her maid of honour for a wedding that was supposed to happen last year, but had to be postponed […]
Cate’s Wedding Day
It’s my friend Cate’s second wedding anniversary to Glenn today and I realized I hadn’t even gotten around to blogging about it! It was a winter wedding held in Vivid Sydney. She had asked me to be one of her bridesmaids so I flew over for a few days to attend the wedding as well […]
Jon Got Saved by the Belle {Wedding}
Last February, I flew to Tagaytay, Philippines, to attend the wedding of my friends Jon and Maybelle. Their official wedding hashtag was #JonGotSavedByTheBelle hence the title of this blog. The wedding ceremony was held in Chapel on a Hill, a small pretty chapel that is perfect for intimate ceremonies. A reception followed at Splendido Taal […]
Maybelle’s Bridal Shower @ Teo Heng KTV
My former roommate Maybelle is getting married to Jon next month, so we decided to throw her an impromptu bridal shower upon Jemma’s suggestion. We asked to have dinner with her on a Saturday night. I realized thanks to an old blog post of mine that we could hold her bridal shower in a private […]
Arlyn’s Wedding
My friend Arlyn and her French beaux Seb had a civil wedding held in a JW Marriott Hotel suite on January 6. I was one of the official witnesses who had to sign on the marriage certificate. I also helped them decorate the room and buy the topper for their cake. The suite was pretty […]
Yan Ming’s Wedding (Peony Jade @ Keppel Club)
I was invited to my teammate Yan Ming’s wedding reception at Peony Jade at Keppel Club last March, and it was the very first Singaporean wedding I had ever been to, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was too early, it turns out. Oh, I was on time according to the wedding invitation, […]
My Maid of Honor Speech (plus Trash the Dress Photos)
I was asked to be a maid of honor for the second time, this time by Flisha. This time around I didn’t panic so much about the speech, because based on my first experience, I knew I could probably write one last minute if need be, and I had witnessed another friend write hers in […]
Funny Friday: What Ronald was Doing Before Gay’s Wedding
A few weeks ago, I was in the Philippines to attend my friend Gay’s wedding. Our friend Maya and I, who were bridesmaid and maid of honor, checked into the same hotel where the bride was, so we wouldn’t have problems being on time for the morning wedding. Our friend Ronald wanted to hang out […]
My Maid of Honor Speech (and Tips on How to Write One)
When Zenie first asked me to be her maid of honor, I was elated. What an honor! Then I got scared. OMG, what was a maid of honor supposed to do? And wasn’t there a speech involved? So I googled how to write such a speech, and tried drafting one in my head. Then I realized that […]
Fifty Shades of Gay (Bridal Shower)
My friend Gay is getting married this month, so last Saturday we threw her a surprise bridal shower which we called Fifty Shades of Gay, which is obviously derived from Fifty Shades of Grey. The event was held at Geanette’s flat. I bought some bridal shower gear (the cosmopolitan-and-stiletto garland and bride-to-be rhinestone glasses) from […]
