Bevlyn’s thoughts: We’ve Only Just Begun
Both Jaslyn and Chek Keng is a shy couple, so my suggestion to Chek Keng to do an impromptu act of singing to Jaslyn was turned down during soundcheck. But when I saw the video of the customary wedding, of Chek Keng gulping down a special concoction of what the sisters titled “Bittergourd Boulevard”, I knew where he reserved his bravery – his stomach!
Jaslyn and Chek Keng marched-in to the band’s rendition of “We’ve Only Just Begun”, which I recommended to Jaslyn as a very suitable 1st march-in song:
We’ve only just begun to live,
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we’re on our way.
And yes, We’ve just begun.
The couple had requested for a mix of genres to cater to the guests of diverse background, but I have to say, 月亮代表我的心 (The Moon Represents My Heart) still topped the songs with the loudest applause!
A song I relished singing was “And The Angels Sing”.
And of course I was excited when Kenneth and Charlene (with a refreshingly short haircut), came up to say hi. It always feels so good to meet couples whom we have performed for, again at their friends’ weddings!
Here’s wishing Jaslyn and Chek Keng a fantastic beginning to an exciting life journey ahead. Congratulations!!
