On the 25th of July, Flo’s birthday, instead of doing the annual hire-a-stripper/take-elephant-rides, we shot for Louanna & Dennis’ wedding.



If you’re wondering why their names sound so familiar, it’s because they’re celebrities who have outdoor jacuzzis in their suite. (Yes i’m jealous, so what?) Actually, no, it’s because they were the very same people who housed, fed and did our laundry for us when we visited Australia.



When we first met Louanna, we knew for sure she was on-the-go, very efficient, she gets things done and she’s extremely meticulous and organized. But most importantly, she gets us. (Ya, like we’re so difficult to understand) A very enjoyable meeting later, we parted, agreeing that we’ll shamelessly crash at her place in Gold Coast for a week. And that’s when we met Dennis. Well, in short, Dennis loves food, wears ratty tshirts and throws his head back when he laughs. We had fantastic memories of our stay at their place, especially this: mountains of prawns which we couldn’t finish so Dennis swapped it for a haircut from his neighbor.



Dennis told us, what he loves best about Louanna is her efficiency. I’d like to add on that besides us loving your efficiency, Lou, we also love your food, your motherly-ness, the way you roll your eyes and the way you lovingly look at Dennis when he’s about to say something embarrassing or eat more food. You’re a wonderful person with a great sense of humor. The only thing we might have a little hesitancy towards would be your 20-year old pillow… (don’t ask, people, don’t ask).



And yes, since we’re on this, Dennis, we love you too. Your strange sense of humor, your mumbling incoherence and so on. But no, really, we enjoy you so much because of your willingness to share (stories, food, stories about food) and your kind easy-going openness. You and Louanna make a great pair and we can’t get enough of the energy you guys have together.



Thanks for the company, fun, and friendship. One of the many reasons why Flo and I love weddings so much — being able to create friendships, hopefully lasting ones, with the kind of people we enjoy.



And right now, I’m so overwhelmed by the fact that we won’t be seeing Louanna and Dennis for a long time, I can’t write anymore. (-sobs exaggeratedly) We’ll be putting up their Actual Day Express Highlights, and the Pre-wedding video from their photoshoot in Australia, as soon as I become less lazy. I promise! But for now, a photo of the couple from Chris Woon:




-From the cats who enjoyed 25th of July 2009.

yeah, slowcoach me is finally posting up Teck Chin & Iris’ full day MTV. had already completed it before CNY but kept forgetting to blog it.



so as you’ve seen from their express highlights, teck chin was made to promise all sorts of things before he could get to iris (including ‘gucci, prada & muimui being a household expense’), it was madness. but i’m sure they had fun. during the evening, the couple had a lot more fun with their friends. they were probably more relaxed too, okay maybe not iris cos as usual she was being kancheong bride, the whole night worrying if everyone was having fun, whether her family was taken care of. speaking of which, goodwood park hotel’s banquet manager is fantastic (not gonna tell you why cos i’m lazy and it’s 4 in the morning la okay?)



both of them look gorgeous (and i’m not the only one saying this okay, lots of other people who’ve watched their morning’s express highlights told me so) and so we’ve made it into a wild party of sorts.



as you will see from the video, A Little Dream sung for them that night (and that female singer is Judee, one of flo’s JC friends. i have a feeling flo has tons of JC friends out there cos we see them so often). okay, enjoy!

Hi Mr and Mrs Ong,
It was really heartwarming to shoot for a couple that had been married for the past 50 years.
Instead of our usual 15 mins MTV, I had decided to make yours into a longer 1/2 hr video as I had realised how important each guest and relative was to you and would like to give them a little more ‘air’ time. Do hope you won’t find the video too long.
Once you have approved the flow/choice of footage, we’ll proceed with fine-tuning the audio and visuals before burning it out onto a DVD for you.
We’ll also need 3-4 of your favourite photos so that we may begin making DVD covers to go along with your DVD.
You may email me at flo@meoworks.com.sg
Hope to hear from you soon.



And here’s another 50 more years to you! -winks.

anyway, here’s the draft of the 1st 2 days of their really beautiful and colourful wedding. the 2nd night ended on a really high note as it was the 1st time K met M during the 4 day wedding ceremony.

One of those rare couples who knew what they wanted and had planned for it.

they had even given me their songs, photos and ‘rolling credits’ b4 their wedding.

that made editing so much easier.

THANK YOU!

express highlights was a challenge due to the shortage of time (they had ROM b4 dinner) and I needed to include the tea ceremony in (most of my express highlights end at the kiss. that’s the natural highlights ma) but hengheng, i had managed to pull it off. -grin

–

okokok. i lied.

the actual highlight of their day was kelvin’s speech to hazel during dinner.

so click now for their video.

Here’s Chien How who sang for Georgina in the morning.

But little did he expect that Georgina had a little surprise prepared for him during their lunch banquet.

(She sang the song “Wei You Ni” for their photomontage)

How sweet is that?
