congratulations Zan and Ada!

as can quite obviously be seen, my dear friend Hurizan got hitched with his belle Ada this weekend, and it was a whirlwind of events from Friday afternoon to Saturday evening!
i am honoured to have been allowed to be a part of the celebrations...
my camera skills suck. so i shan't put more pictures than these three here.

this picture was taken on the first day after the solemnization. the story was that we couldn't do a shoot at seletar reservoir due to construction works, so we went into seletar west camp. the house we immediately stopped beside was suddenly offered to us as a shooting location by the owner, and we of course took the opportunity to use such rustic locality, and got some really nice shots. the image almost looks photoshopped, but its 100% real. the couple were dressed in traditional white malay costume.

the sanding took part on the second day, with a bold choice of colours for the groom, but indeed it looks fantabulous on him. pink and green do go together very well. the challenge was dressing Zan up in the morning, and forming the all-important crossage on the kain samping. i am super proud to say, i did that flower, and i made it look good. haha. with help from people la, you know who you are. the mak andam did not even need to touch it up. haha.

the final change was for dinner. the couple took on a regal maroon javanese inspired garb, which really drew attention to them. the bling on them is enough to make 50 Cents look even cheaper - so says the mak andam. haha. and what a fitting way to end a most memorable event - with pomp and splendour.

Congrats again to the newly-weds!
