{ wedding moment } junquan + celestal

J + C is the perfect couple, the perfect reunion. junquan and celestal dated since poly time and after a decade of dating, celestal finally said YES! beautiful and demure yet she's noting close to a tamed girlfriend lol she's one tough lady, she scuba dived, mounted the tibet mountain even explored the wildlife of south africa. two thumbs up for her.  though i may not had known celestal for a very long time, not only she looks beautiful, she seems to me a person with good values, strong principle, witty and outgoing. a total compliment to junquan, man of achievement and a perfectionist.

their morning gatecrashing is one unique theme - construction workers. both junquan and celestal worked in construction industry...  and entourage and bridesmaids are indeed very adventurous!
probably one of the most interesting gatecrashing i've seen.

saw the cane? definitely not a very easy task for gatecrashing hahaha.

junquan made it anyways!

they had a photography session at a construction site... awesome!

 dearest junquan and celestal,

"this may be a long overdue post but good marriage last forever and y post is never too late?! hehe.  here i would thank you for always entrusting your makeup to me!  every session is definitely more than just a makeover session, it's a joy catching up like good old friends and im glad to share your happy moments. junquan and you are an awesome pair! need not to say much cuz' you guys rocks. stay fabulous and adventurous! xoxo"

blissfully,

{ wedding moment } michael + alicia

His + Her |; celebrating the reunion of michael and alicia.

michael and alicia, the young couple celebrated their solemnisation at november 8 cafe - an intimate affair with family and friends. certainly, im more than delighted to be invited to witness and share their unforgettable moments <3

the venue's wedding decor was very beautifully done up by alicia, im pretty impressed by her creative ideas~ from the art&crafts guest reception (guests get to make personalised blessing cards for the couple), to the specially made ring-pillow and even a hash-tag #micxciawedding

so let us take selfie!

alicia's makeover was done at november 8 cafe, although there ain't proper table setting for the makeover we still managed to do the makeover with no fuss! alicia had a makeover trial with me prior to her actual day event as she has eczema skin condition, im so glad my product didn't aggravate her skin! to alicia's preference, i gave her a natural makeup with flawless glowing skin and earth tone eye colour, complimenting hairstyling - waterfall braid with curls. 
doesn't she juz shine?

officially
Mr. & Mrs. Wong

and finally... the kiss! 

 dearest michael and alicia,
"congrats once again to you~ thank you for engaging me as your makeup artist and showing your appreciation for my work, im truly honored. alicia, you're one of the youngest bride i made up for yet contrary to your age, you are a sensible, mature-thinking and down-to-earth person. im sure you'll make a good wife and in future, a good mother. my heartfelt wishes to michael and you, may all things good come your way and above all, everlasting lurve."

heaps of blessings,

candy t.

{ wedding moment } ben + estée

as demure as she seems, estée is indeed one of the most gentle and soft-spoken bride i've ever met.  estée greeted me with a warmth smile in the morning, probably one the best thing a makeup artist could asked for :) 

it didnt take me long to find a suitable style for estée who entrusted all in my good hands. for the morning session, i gave her a natural nude look makeup and a chignon with fresh floral hairstyle.

that's estée all ready for the 'gingerbread groom' to arrive.
yeah, gingerbread... and they came in gingerbread gang!

ta-dang~ picture perfect!

ben and estée held their solemnisation and dinner banquet at raffles country club, a venue i thought is pretty different from the usual enclosed ballroom. the solemnisation ceremony compliment with scenic view of western part of singapore's sea. 
oh, so romantic~ <3 <3 <3

 as for estée's evening makeover, i gave her a smokey eyes with soft side chignon hairstyle and a beautiful tiara, which is a wedding gift from her bridal party. sweet like a princess!

dearest ben and estée,

"together with the first walk down the aisle, first toast and the first happy tears, you begin a lifelong journey as man and wife... i wish you a blessed marriage and may your future be as interesting as your dating story~~ ben, keep surprising your beautiful wife like you always do, keep the smile shining."

with bliss and lurves,

candy t.
