Ben & Cheryl's Wedding @ Mandarin Oriental

Photobucket
The band: Matthew on keys, Kexin on vox, Steven on Sax

Ben and Cheryl strode in the ballroom, military style!
Lined along their paths were sword-bearing military men decked in uniforms,
and the couple were made to go through a serious of "tasks" before they finish their march-in!
Boy is getting married tough, the obstacles don't seem to end!

But this could not compare to what Ben had gone through to get Cheryl!
I was sitting there watching a cartoon video of their love story and i have to say, I was impressed by Ben's perserverance!
They were classmates since they were 14 but they only got together 3 years ago. Their matrimony was never an easy journey;
first there was a failed first date, where Ben brought Cheryl to a jap restaurant when she's allergic to seafood;
then a failed first kiss, when he was rejected;
finally the failed proposal, where Ben was supposed to propose on a hot-air balloon but it rained!
No, Ben did not back down but went on his knees at wheelock place, where they had their first date.
What can i say, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
Cheryl has found a determined man!

The couple also decided to sing At Your Side by The Corrs to thank their family and friends.
Ben played his guitar while Cheryl sang the song and of course,
Yourstruly was happy to have accompanied them in this sweet performance.
