Daniel and Aik Mei's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne

Kitty as emcee,
Alfred and Kexin on Vox,
Ein ein on keys

Hi Ginny... I would like to thank you and your team for the good performance yesterday. All my guests were very impressed with kitty, kexin, alfred and einein for their vocals, presentation, etc.. I believe most of my guests were the shy type but the praises really came to me and aikmei like wildfire through smses and facebook.. I believe there will be a few potential couples who are looking to engage yourstruly as their wedding band. I have given them your number and i assured them yourstruly is the best choice they can have. Cheers! Once again, thank you very much...

<3 Daniel

What a sweet couple!
Daniel was a really sincere and down to earth guy, and his gratitude was humbling. Not only did he show his appreciation to us, the band, during his speech, he did not forget all the vendors that he had hired during the night.

interesting fact, daniel and aik mei met through a dating agency and aik mei was the first girl he was set up on a date with.
so guess who i saw on the TODAY paper a couple of days later!!

Pauleon & Cailing's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront

Kexin on Vox

Daniel on Guitar

Pauleon & Cailing's wedding dinner was a BLAST!

Dedications kept coming in, the guests were crazy and most importantly, they loveee seeing the couple make a fool out of themselves on stage! hahah

SABO 1: Pauleon to sing lang hua yi duo duo for Cailing

Daniel gamely played the song and Pauleon was making up words as he sang along to the tune. At the end of the song, a lil' boy decided to come and stage and Pauleon asked what he wanted to sing. Somehow, the lil' boy led everyone into singing a worship song, along with daniel's accompaniment. It was truly a very touching moment listening to the whole ballroom resound with the heartfelt tune of "Great of our God".

SABO 2 & 3: Pauleon's cell group members gave him a choice between singing a duet with Cailing and dancing along to Wondergirls' "Nobody".

The guests ultimately came up with a collective decision to make him do both!

The highlight came when Pauleon got his friends on stage to teach him the cutesy steps to the chorus of "Nobody"!

I must say these wonderboys were fantastic, perhaps even sexier than the wondergirls themselves!

Dedications were aplenty for the night..

i love how creative some of them can get...

*drumrolls* here comes my personal favourite...

(i couldn't bring myself to read it out loud hahaha)

THANK YOU Pauleon & Cailing..

God bless you and I wish you everlasting happiness (:

Horng Woei & Clara's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront, Grand Ballroom

Kewei on vox
Ein on keys
Wahyong on double-bass

Hi Ginny / Kewei,

Happy New Year!!

I have transferred the remaining amount of $712.50 to your POSB account. Please do check and let me know if you received.

We would really like to thank Kewei, Ein Ein and Wah Yong for such a really nice performance on our big day. We really loved the band's performance, especially Kewei's singing.

Our guests really enjoyed themselves, and we have already recommended Yours Truly to our family and friends. Some of them have already asked for your contacts.

As for the pictures, we're still waiting for our photographer to pass the pictures to us.

Will email them to you once we get them. Think our photographer's very busy with lots of weddings over this period too.

We think the dedications were done really well, and we are really happy to see that so many people dedicated songs. Wondering if we could you all still remember the entire song list that you all played that night? Do let us know if you can remember. Some of our guests were asking for the song list.. =) Both of us would also love to know all the songs that Kewei sang that day too Smile emoticon

Thanks also for working with my cousin Sulyn too for her songs. She wanted me to let you all know she had fun working with you guys. Hope you all had a good time performing with her too.

Btw, was reading about Kewei and Ein Ein's EP release "KEEP", wondering how I could order a copy of it too. =) Do let me know yea? I'm a big fan too... =)

Hear from you soon.

Best regards,
Horng Woei & Clara

Lovely pictures by Lightbox Productions

We had a great time at their wedding! :)
Especially with the many dedications, that honestly, we couldn't keep track of what we sung! :p

Their cousin Sulyn was also a lovely singer based in KL,
and she played the keyboard and sang, while Wahyong played with her :)
Einein and I were very impressed with her performance!

Clement & Joey's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront

The KILL BILL team with Joey+Clement!
Ein on keys, Kewei on vox, Selwyn on violin, Colin on bass

It was the first time I dressed up specially for Halloween,
but since Clement told me how happening his party was,
and how his emcees were going to come as Cleopatra and the Chinese Emperor,
I decided the band must not lose out!!!

Check out their invite!




I scoured through all the costume shops for 3 days consecutively,
racked my brains with my musicians,
before I found the perfect outfit at Movie Mania!

Hey guys!!!

Thank u very very much!!!

Alamak!!

That night me and joey were so tired.. we left out actually saying thanks to everyone who helped.. that’s you guys too.. the dressing up is just awesome!

So I plan to make reference and thank u guys properly..on facebook first!!

When u have the digi image of al of u and joey and me.. do share with us… I wanna upload it asap even before my photographer is done with his post edittnig.. which can take a while =)

Thanks!

May the force be with u all!!

Clem + joey

Dear Clement and Joey,

My pleasure!!!!!!! We had such a good time at your wedding, and I must say out of the hundreds of weddings i've been to, it was one of the most fun ones!



Your pictures were absolutely lovely, super creative and beautiful.. and I love how you transformed the reception area into almost an art gallery, with the sleek classic photoframes, and your cocktail band was the cutest! i love the way they dressed!








Awesome photos by John Heng! (ps. who doesn't specialise in wedding photography only..)

i was fascinated by the R2D2 robot, the different costumes roaming around, it was so much fun... and your march in*, your speech, your best man's speech, i laughed so loudly i think the table in front of us must have thought "how unlady-like and uncouth of the singer!" which i seriously felt so, decked in a KILL BILL outfit.






i usually have to wear a pretty dress and behave like a lady while singing, but this time i was having fun brandishing a sword singing L-O-V-E.

Selwyn my violinist already posted our pictures on facebook, you can add us at http://www.facebook.com/yourstruly.sg

Definitely hope to see your photos soon!!! Wanna post on our blog too :)

Cheers!
Kewei

*Clem+Joey's march in was led by a remote-controlled R2D2, and followed by 8 Storm Troopers!



He even invited a group of professional Wondergirls to dance NOBODY!

(correction from Clement:
the wondergirls item is actually a friend “sponsored” item… lead dancer is a buddy’s wife, the nice couple wanted to give us a cool wedding gift, they know I love the wondergirls…. So she, a professional dancer herself, roped in 4 more dancer buddies, and put up the item.. we are so thankful for these great friends!! =)


with the super cute R2D2 who was moving around on his own


with the MAN himself! Jedi!

Hey kewei

Really really thanks again..

Everything came together nicely in the end.. mad mad rush for us… it was a very last min planned weddin… we had 6 months to plan..

But lucky for us.. all key players were available... key meaning. Bridal designer, hotel availability, the critical date! .. and… your band was still available!! =) phewwwwwwwww!!

The exhibition idea was also a “last minute no other way of doing it” option.. cos we only took those pics .. just 2 weeks before the dinner..and no time was left to make an album!

And than…u guys coming sportingly in costume..!! I tell u … the impact is tremendous!! we r seriously very very grateful!!

You guys contributed to the whole whimsical mood that we wanted to achieve…

We got many comments that the band was awesome.. my only learning point on looking back.. should have placed u guys on higher stage!!

With all the dress up..its a pity that we didn’t push u fellows more in the limelight!! =(

And hey We’re glad u laughed uncouthly… hahah..it shows u enjoyed urself! Hope the rest of the band also had a ball of a time!

In short… it is very very important to us.. that everyone has a great time.. helpers… paid professionals.. everyone…

we’re very happy we engaged your services…happy not just for the quality of the singing and the band backup…

we’re happy cos you guys are terrific people to work with… its not just another paid job to us…we’re glad we to know u guys …it certainly goes beyond a working relationship..=)

personally .. I’m always interested in party planning ..So I know what it takes to be a good performer and u guys aced it…I have deep respect for you guys doing the things u do… great job!

Ok.. long email already…sorry… I tend to go on and on…

Yes.. lets hook up …. Fb. Email… blogs..

Will be delighted to know you guys willl wanna feature ur performance at our wedding in ur blog.. its an honour!

We ‘ll still be fixing up an post album.. somewhat different from the usual too. Cos we’re using this post wedding relaxed time to do one where we get to feature and thank everyone involved…

You guys included.. so one day when free.. we might ask u guys to join us for a group photoshoot.. its going to appear at the back pages….ala b/w photography style.. Portraits..if time permits.. .. maybe even styled costumed ones in unusual settings something like what we did for our pre wedding.. hahahah =)

Thanks again!

Cheers!

Clem + joey!

one last thing...
in the morning... you'll never guess what Clement came as.. to win the hand of his beautiful bride...





PS. More photos added on 14 November... 2 weeks after the wedding.
We are seriously obsessed with how fun it was!

Sok Ying & Aloysius's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront, Waterfront Ballroom

I had great fun at this wedding!

Sok Ying was a beautiful and voluptuous lady,
whose vivacious personality shone throughout the celebrations :)

Aloysius was also very hospitable towards us, making sure we had a great dinner and were well taken care of, and he was absolutely friendly. :)

Their brother and sister team looked perfect in their matching colours -
the brothers all wore a satin blue tie,
whereas the sisters had the same satin ribbons on their cream dresses, each uniquely designed :)

The professional emcees also kept the spirits up,
especially during the sabo segment when the couple had to do a bollywood dance for their loved ones!

There is no older game than dancing around a person pretending to be a coconut tree,
but everyone loved it, including Sok Ying and Aloysius themselves!

I say, bring the games on!
It's great fun to let loose during your wedding, really have fun
and laugh at yourself along with others! :D

When inviting the guests onstage,
several tables started cheering and clapping for their grandfather,
who raised his glass high in the air towards them, smiling from ear to ear.

Little kids sitting on shoulders even started chanting 爷爷！爷爷！
He had to be the most popular 爷爷 I've ever seen!

Sok Ying and Aloysius's wedding speech was also unscripted, warm, and straight to the point - they thanked friends who flew in to join them on their big night, extended family, colleagues etc.

But Aloysius's closing really took the cake -
"I would also like to thank the Japanese guy who stays in Room 2414, opposite my suite!
When I was standing outside at the hallway, he opened his door and asked me, Excuse me, if I send my laundry by tonight.. will I get it by tomorrow morning?
I looked at him, and said: Yes."

The entire ballroom, already in great spirits, burst out laughing!


Besides playing for both march-ins,
Gulia also played Handel's Concerto for the 1st Dish Presentation,
which was a magnificent classical piece that sounded great on the harp!

Sok Ying had requested last minute for the harp to play since she didn't want flashy lights and music for the 1st Dish Presentation.

And I couldn't agree more with her decision :)

Khee Wei & Junie's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront

Daniel Purnomo on guitar
Kexin on vox

We had a secret date with Khee Wei just before the wedding started.



He was whisked away by his brothers into the ballroom
admist all the last minute preps
and Junie was told that he had to "settle some stuff" elsewhere

So settle he did with Daniel P and his guitar.

After the 2nd March-in, he promptly declared,
"I'm going to sing a song for Junie,
so for all of you out there who wanted to sabo me,
I surrender myself"

He held Junie's hands and gazed deep into her eyes
as he sang "Beautiful in my Eyes" by Joshua Kadison.





What can i say, an added personal touch is always a tear-jerker.

Khee Wei's youngest brother and his girlfriend also sang a lovely duet
"Way Back into Love" for their first march-in :)



I'm more than glad to help fulfill a special request :)
The couple dedicated "You raise me up" by Josh Groban
to their parents.





Thank you Khee Wei and Junie for sharing with us your big day!

Lovely pictures courtesy of William :)

Jimmy & Gelin @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront

It's not often that we get requests for 6 piece bands, but we always love it when we do!

For Jimmy & Gelin, Yours Truly put together a very special combination comprising Dawn Wong & William Tanoto on Vocals, Ein Ein on the Keyboard, Daniel Purnomo on the Guitar, Jonathan Lim on the Saxophone, and Nic Osman on Percussion.

This lively combination was pure fun not only for the audience who enthusiastically submitted countless song requests and dedications to the couple, but also for the band who got to flex our creativity in delivering everybody's favourite numbers.

In addition to traditional crowd pleasers like Wonderful Tonight, 我只在乎你, and 爱很简单, we also put a twist on must-have titles with duet renditions of 月亮代表我的心 and What a Wonderful World. Dawn also performed Loving You as a special request from the Groom to the Bride to round off the perfect evening.

What's left now are just wonderful pictures to share our feelings!

Congratulations to Jimmy & Gelin, and may you have countless happy years ahead!

Gary & Judy's Wedding @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront, Grand Ballroom

Kewei on vox,
Ein Ein on keys,
Jon Lim on sax :)



It's always lovely to have a wedding reflect the love story of the couple.

For Gary and Judy,
the Phantom of the Opera will forever be the symbol of their marriage :)

It was during the show that Gary had proposed,
and Gary especially chose to sing the 1st verse of All I Ask of You
for the 1st march-in,
before the doors swung open to welcome the blushing bride.

I'm personally not a fan of many musical pieces,
but this song is mind-blowingly, hauntingly beautiful.



Their song for the 1st dish was also the signature theme of
Phantom of the Opera,
which I thought was perfect. :)


After his declaration of love for Judy,
Gary launched into his surprise song,
singing Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling in Love

He was pretty nervous while rehearsing, but his efforts definitely paid off!
I'm a strong advocate of singing grooms! :D
