Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: When You Say Nothing At All Shaun and Zara’s wedding was a marriage of people and cultures. It was my first time singing for a Russian bride – a model no less. Zara’s beauty was matched by her feisty personality, and she wouldn’t hesitate to tell us what her opinions. Shaun was a meticulous groom. He had in-laws to take care of, banquet matters to attend to, and goodness knows how many million other things to manage.…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Unforgettable For this wedding, I really think that words are unnecessary. The photos below fully convey the wonderful mood and magic that evening. Thank you Deanna and Matt! You guys are fantastic, and we wish you every happiness and joy in your marriage! There was so much dancing that night! Band: Hsin Yeow, Sharon, Melvin, Boon Chye Repertoire: Fly Me to the Moon, They Can’t Take That Away, Embraceable You, The Way You Look Tonight, Our Love…
Sofyan’s Thoughts: What A Truly Fun-filled Wedding! Not the usual Chinese wedding dinner style, it was more Western (or Down-Under) influenced wedding, with the good looking bride-and-groom and guests dancing on the dance floor to the mix of slow and upbeat ’60s themed live-band. Nevertheless, they still did the traditional Chinese Yam Seng x 3 (with Shawn’s drum roll). One highlight song must have been "Uptown Girl". In the words of Vivien herself: "Uptown Girl quite describes our relationship at the start, erm,…
Bevlyn's Thoughts: I Finally Found Someone I got to know Bjoern and Agnes through Fang Ting and Shu Hong…even though they do not know each other. I was singing at the latter's outdoor wedding at the beach at Rasa Sentosa, and Bjoern and Agnes heard my band when they were dining nearby. I was invited over by a waitress and voila, the rest was history! I have to say though, that at that point, I was doubtful that Bjoern and Agnes…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: OMG Janice and Jonathan’s wedding was a riot. I thought to myself, “I hadn’t laughed so much at a wedding in ages. Seriously.” I mean, how could anyone keep a straight face when the bridesmaids and groomsmen took a leaf from the coolest wedding dance ever (see below)? To me, Janice and Jonathan’s (JJ) wedding dance trumped JK’s because JJ’s parents joined in the fun! You had to be there to believe it! Then came the tearjerking…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Shawa Shawa I couldn’t have summed up the evening more effectively than Ian, who said, “It was an unbelievably fun night for me!” It was for the band too. Natalie and Kugan’s wedding marked many firsts for us. The first Bollywood-themed wedding, for one. And the sight of more than twenty guests forming a Conga line and dancing to this infectious tune: Shawa Shawa! Another memorable moment was Kugan’s elegant speech. He likened marrying Natalie to hitting…
Shawn’s thoughts: Can’t Take My Eyes Off You I stood by the entrance while the guests streamed in and realised why we were asked to prepare two dance sets out of three. they all looked like they could really boogie! The speeches and montage all say that one same thing about Kelvin and Sese; they consider very much for others, and very much so was seen on their wedding, on one of the biggest days of their lives. When Kelvin and Sese opened…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Built To Last The match of the century: Bon Jovi VS Tommy Page Who will win? In Karen and Kenneth’s wedding, everyone wins. I sweated for many nights when I first got the song list. It was clearly the result of two distinct tastes in music. Kenneth’s contributions were songs like Wherever You Will Go and Spin (both of which I grew to love), while Karen’s favourites were probably Arthur’s Theme and Flying Without Wings. More lovely…
Shawn’s thoughts: Two Words Everything about chijimes was just so right for Wenyao and Fong Yee, from the venue to the decor…they even handpicked the band members! The couple displayed great elegance very subtly, and the band was deeply attracted to further pleasure the guests; to complete the tasteful evening the couple had prepared for them. It was a delicate evening of swing, and we swung like never before. A little girl of 6 dedicated a piano piece to the…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Accidentally In Love My job is to document the memorable highlights of each wedding, but I drew a blank when I started to write about Marvin and Yihong’s wedding. Not that there weren’t anything to write. On the contrary, where do I begin? Even before the guests entered the ballroom, they could tell it was not going to be a conventional celebration. The bridesmaids and groomsmen were unbelievably united and colour-coordinated. The ladies wore well-cut dresses in…
Shawn’s thoughts: Let Down, Let Go, and Get High Eager to move, ready to sway. An intimate group of friends and relatives who boogied a full 90mins and asked for more! Judy, our singer for the evening, was snappy quick to suss out the guests’ musical preferences and modified our songlist to hook the “gold people” while entertaining the party fellas. She also got a french guest to dedicate “With Or Without You” by U2 to the couple, with everyone…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Better Together Holding a wedding outdoors can be a risky thing, given the temper tantrums of our tropical weather. When I reached Amara Sanctuary Resort on 31 Oct afternoon, the blazing sun showed no signs of abating. I had to swallow my words two hours later, when dark clouds ate up the sun, spat out a light drizzle which swiftly turned into a downpour. Luckily, Jesslyn’s sunny disposition kept rain clouds at bay for about two crucial…
Bevlyn’s Thoughts: 绝不能失去你 (Can’t Do Without You) + Can’t Take My Eyes Off You I really have to give kudos to Lindt for the ideas she came up with for her wedding. First off, everyone watched a photo montage which feature the couple’s parents; everyone laughed when they saw Lindt’s father throwing a Bruce Lee high kick in one of the pictures! Then the parents marched in to Matthew and Lim Hui’s instrumental rendition of 最浪漫的事 (The Most Romantic Thing).…
Judy’s Thoughts: Time Of My Life It was my first time performing at the Villa Halia, and I thought was really unconventional. Some guests were seated indoors in the main restaurant area while some were outside where the main area was. Even though the guests were separated, the ones indoors could what was going on outside through the wonders of technology – live feed on a huge projection screen. I thought it was pretty funky to have a wedding dinner in such a setting. …
Juliet’s Thoughts: Your Song Albeit unconventionally short, we are happy to be sharing the couple’s joy. My highlight of the night was David and Shannon slow-dancing to ‘Hero’ (Enrique). But i believe Feri, Chris (bartender aka percussionist!) and myself all enjoyed moving and dancing to I’m Yours (Jason Mraz) tonight. Congratulations to the lovely couple! L to R: Feri, David, Shannon & Juliet Band: Juliet & Feri Repertoire: Grow Old With You, Your Song, Hero, I’m Yours
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Start Of Something New I almost didn’t get to perform for Yeh Min and Isaac. They wanted us to serenade their guests after their solemnisation at Living Hope Methodist Church, but the Church staff were concerned about whether the live music would affect the classes being held above the reception area, as well as the HDB residents nearby. Thankfully, Yeh Min persuaded the staff to agree to having the band. At our end, we also assured the…
Hui Bing’s Thoughts: Love In The First Degree If I can describe Kenneth & Joanne’s wedding in three words, it will be Full, Fun and Fantastic. Full as we had a fuller band accompanying me and Jerome that night – Jixiang on guitar, Ivan on sax and Shawn on percussion. The music from this dynamic trio in black was as tight as a button, perfect for the disco and uptempo songs that the couple has selected. I didn’t know that…
Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Somewhere Only We Know In the cynical world we live in, can love still last forever? Or is it enough to be in love right now? Darren would always be remembered as the groom who elicited a collective gasp of horror when he called Juanita “my current wife” and “hopefully my eternal happiness” during his speech. To Juanita’s credit, she hardly batted an eyelid and playfully jabbed Darren’s butt in mock protest. The guests were discerning enough…
