(Wedding) Alexandre and Cheng Teng, 6 May 2011, Four Seasons (Crescent Ballroom)

6 May 2011

Bevlyn’s Thoughts: “For Me Formidable” This is another classic example which shows that love holds no boundaries, and in fact Cupid seems to be crossing boundaries more and more these days! Alexandre and Cheng Teng got acquainted a few years ago when he came from Switzerland to Singapore for work. Apparently Cupid had successfully worked his magic on the two of them! Having sung many French songs at weddings, nothing excites (and worries) more than singing them infront of people…

Joshua and Irene, 2 Jan 2011, St Regis

Uncategorized

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: All The Way I had a great night out with Eleanor, Mei and Fabian! Joshua and Irene’s wedding was held at the newly reburbished St Regis ballroom, which had new decorative panels on the stage. Take a look below When I arrived at the ballroom, I saw the swordbearers practising the march-in. And they were serious about it too, and rehearsed a couple of rounds to ensure their timing was perfect. Little did I know they had…

Shaun and Zara, 28 Nov 2010, St Regis

28 November 2010

Uncategorized

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.…

Adrian and Jasmine, 16 Nov 2010, Mandarin Oriental

16 November 2010

Mandarin Oriental Singapore

Eleanor’s thoughts: Collide My personal experience of this particular wedding was filled with reminders of how small Singapore is. When I first met up with Adrian to discuss the songlist for his wedding celebration, I couldn’t help but feel as if I had met him before. The feeling was certainly mutual; almost immediately after we introduced ourselves, he said he found my face very familiar. As Adrian’s wife, Jasmine, watched on in bemusement, Adrian and I meticulously traced our way…

Sherman and Minli, 13 Nov 2010, La Brezza, St Regis

13 November 2010

Uncategorized

Eleanor’s thoughts: Someone To Watch Over Me In many years of emceeing and singing at weddings, I’ve seen many different styles of celebration, from large, noisy gatherings of family and friends in huge ballrooms, to intimate, elegant luncheons surrounded by lush gardens and bubbling fountains. But beneath all the frills and fanfare, there are a few simple moments that encapsulate what the occasion truly means: newlyweds turning to face their loved ones for the first time as husband and wife,…

Grace and Jasper, 6 Nov 2010, St Regis

6 November 2010

Uncategorized

Eleanor’s thoughts: C’est Magnifique When Grace and Jasper came into the ballroom to introduce themselves to me before their wedding banquet, the first phrase to pop into my mind was a Mandarin one: “lao fu lao qi” which translates to “old married couple.” Grace and Jasper may have only just become man and wife, but the easy, comfortable dynamic between them and shared sense of wry humour spoke of a deep, loving mutual understanding built over a long time together.…

Karen and Hoowee, 16 Sep 2010, Concorde Hotel (Wedding Live Band)

Joey and Norman, 26 Jun 2010, Hotel InterContinental (Wedding Live Band)

26 June 2010

Intercontinental Singapore

Juliet’s thoughts: When You Wish Upon A Star Working with ZQ once again as a duet team is always so much fun. 🙂 It’s such pleasure singing for the lovely couple. Having sharon on the team again meant we had good fun with the groovy numbers. The highlight for me for this luncheon was Cheek To Cheek (2nd march-in), Wishin’ and Hopin’ (such fun!), and I really enjoyed ZQ’s cantonese number by George Lam, where Sharon did a nice little…

Zaw and Thee Tone, 11 Apr 2010, Gallery Ballroom, Fort Canning Centre (Wedding Live Band)

11 April 2010

Hotel Fort Canning

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Lovin’ You Congratulations to Zaw and Thee Tone, who got married at the beautiful and historic grounds of Fort Canning Centre, Fort Canning Park. Zaw and Thee Tone started as schoolmates, but mutual attraction created an almost instant and lasting between them. Zaw revealed, “I don’t know why I love her so much, but she’s like a lovely child, and she helped me a lot to ease the pressures whenever I feel stressed about work.” Thank you…

Dinner For P&T Consultants’ Director, 25 Mar 2010, Ritz Carlton (Wedding Live Band)

25 March 2010

Corporate Events, Ritz Carlton

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Here Comes The Sun Francis of P&T Consultants heard us perform at a friend’s wedding, and got in touch with us when his company was planning to host a dinner in honour of their Director, who was retiring. I got Eleanor, Feri and Fabian to provide the entertainment. The retiring Director is a fan of the Fab Four, so the band performed a few Beatles classics! L-R: Eleanor, Feri, Fabian Thank you for the opportunity, Francis! Band:…

Jackie and Clara, 30 Jan 2010, Raffles Hotel (Wedding Live Band)

30 January 2010

Raffles Hotel

Eleanor’s thoughts: The Wedding Song Jackie’s family, the Yau family, came all the way from Hong Kong. The ladies were all very slim and elegantly and fashionably dressed, e.g. Jackie’s mom wore a short champagne dress with a ketupat weave for the solemnisation and a champagne fur-trimmed cheongsam for the dinner, while his sister-in-law wore a Grecian draped gown showing off an unbelievably trim figure despite her having two children. Jackie’s brother was in a suit with a great cut…

Stella and Wilson, 9 Jan 2010, Marina Mandarin (Wedding Live Band)

9 January 2010

Marina Mandarin Singapore

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: I Finally Found Someone When I arrived at the ballroom and glanced at the pre-wedding photos, I was struck by how photogenic Stella was. She had the fresh-faced, wide-eyed mien reminiscent of Korean actresses. When I finally saw her, I realised she looked even more lovely in person! It was easy to see how Wilson won Stella’s hand. He had a sincere charm about him. Here’s an example: Stella and Wilson chose to present huge bouquets of…

Linda and Derrick, 3 Jan 2010, Fullerton (Wedding Live Band)

3 January 2010

Fullerton

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: A Love That Will Last More often than not, live bands come late to the party. For some, we are an afterthought, after couples realise they have some money left after booking wedding venue, photographers, bridal studio, and a whole lot of other vendors. That’s why we often depend on word-of-mouth (from either friends or wedding vendors) for couples to know about us before their funds are committed elsewhere. Luckily for us, Linda contacted me soon after receiving a…

Weiling and Zhengmin, 2 Jan 2010, Fullerton Hotel (Wedding Live Band)

2 January 2010

Fullerton

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: I’m Yours Zhengmin and his buddies provided the biggest laughs of the evening when the audience saw the video highlights of the gate-crashing ceremony. For the uninitiated, this ceremony requires the groom and his posse to bang at the doors of the bride’s abode and demand entrance. To prove their sincerity, they would first need to overcome the devious challenges the bridesmaids have come up with. The bridesmaids were obviously not expecting Zhengmin and his band of…

MPA Dinner & Dance, 30 Dec 09, The Dance Floor, SAFRA Mount Faber (Corporate Live Band/Music)

30 December 2009

SAFRA Mt Faber

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Dream A Little Dream You learn something new every day. That mantra was probably resounding in the heads of Eleanor, Feri and Fabian as they arrived at The Dance Floor, a new facility at SAFRA Mount Faber, on the penultimate day of the year. The band was more familiar with Pioneer Spring, a restaurant located on the higher floor of the club. Eleanor also learned this: Feri and Fabian were a dream combination. The music that flowed…

Darren and Yijue, 25 Dec 09, Tower Ballroom, Shangri-La (Wedding Live Band)

25 December 2009

Shangri-la

Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas Darren had a tough time figuring out when to propose to Yijue. Apparently, Yijue managed to find the ring each time they went on a romantic trip overseas. Darren said it quite succinctly, “I can’t keep any secrets from her!” I had such a great time performing at the wedding. The spirit of Christmas was certainly in the air, and when Eleanor sang, “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”, I could…
