Thank you for serenading our wedding and making the event a truly memorable one!

love, faizal and divya

You have never been to a true blue Singaporean wedding until you've been to Faizal and Divya's wedding dinner.
It was the first time I saw all Chinese, Malays and Indians gather under one roof to celebrate life and the union of two and i must say, it was really a very heartwarming sight!

Before i indulge you with details of the eventful wedding night,
let me share with you Faizal and Divya's ethnic history.
Faizal is a malay but apparently, Divya is chinese indian! and so they say love knows no boundaries (:

Their first march in was also one of a kind,
they were led into the ballroom by a troop of "army", hammering away at their kompang
to signal the incoming of their majesty!

I managed to catch a bit of the performance from my camera..

After the show ended, Yours Truly took over and the dedications were overwhelming!
We even had a song request for the moon represents my heart (yue liang dai biao wo de xin)
and i professed that it was weird to sing a chinese classic for such a multiracial crowd.
but my concern immediately vanished when a table cheered to support the song choice! haha

As if the programme was already not happening enough, Divya got on stage after her 2nd march-in and sang a lovely number, Lost in Your Eyes - Debbie Gibson, for her husband..

I must mention about faizal's brother for he was such a fantastic host!
There was no dead air and he managed the crowd so well, going around after our set ended
to interview people and getting their well wishes recorded down on video..
There was one particular message that was soo funny my band i were really amused,
Faizal's secondary teacher said this,
"Back in secondary school I taught Faizal abit of bio and sex education, now Faizal, for tonight, i say, JUST DO IT!!!!!!" hahahaha
she screamed those last 3 three words out like some inner monsters were unleashed it was truly hilarious!

We had so much fun thanks Faizal and Divya!

love,
