words, images, life
John and I have returned from our big Taiwan + Singapore + honeymoon in Maldives trip for almost three weeks now so it’s time that I start a committed process to document the trip.
Taiwan was our first stop, because we had a mission to do, and that was to hold two additional wedding receptions [...]
I picked up our marriage license the other day. It’s official. Like young grapes growing on spring vine, we are starting the next chapter of our lives anew, as husband and wife.
Many have asked the million dollar questions such as “when are you moving to Vegas?”, or ”will John move to California?”
Well, if you have been following [...]
After the ceremony was over, John and I felt a lot more relaxed, and that’s when the fun started! In between the ceremony and the dinner banquet, we had our couple’s photo session, then we went back to our villa where I changed my hair style and had my bridal gown all bustled up. In [...]
4:30pm - 6:00pm
I actually don’t know exactly what time our ceremony finally started, except that it was at least 40 minutes past our original scheduled time.
Yay! It was the moment I waited for for so long!
The rose arbor looked fantastic! Don’t you think? The wisteria flowers were in peak bloom, the roses that weren’t there [...]
Please tell me that it is completely normal to feel exhausted for weeks after the wedding, or else I’ll feel too old! After our wedding, I felt tired for three full weeks! Now I am finally almost fully recovered from months of stress and weeks of exhaustion, I am ready to write about the wedding [...]
Before I write the full write up of my wedding day, I’d like to record the crazy last minute preparations. Years down the road, I’d like to re-read this entry and have a good laugh about it.
Although I felt I did my best to do things early, I was still caught in surprise [...]
“How did I look on our wedding day?” I asked John.
“Good”, he answered.
But for a question as important as this, “good” simply isn’t good enough. John’s not a very wordy person, and sometimes, his brief answers don’t quite satisfy my sentimental needs.
So I asked again, using a more quantitative language for the scientist in John.
“From [...]
Sometimes I think I am a difficult person to be friend with, because I disappear when I am busy, and that is like 340 days out of a year. Sadly, there’s no exaggeration there.
But during my last weekend of singlehood, the most fabulous girls in the world showered me with love, warm wishes, and awesome [...]
We stayed up till 3:30am to choreograph our first dance together. Using the steps and moves we learned from a crash course for the past three weekends, we are pretty happy with the choreography. The song of choice is “Love of My Life” by Jim Brickman. I absolutely love the song. Here’s the lyric:
I am amazed
When [...]
Over the weekend, John and I went to our wedding site for the final meeting with our site coordinator.
Look at this beautiful garden! It features climbing roses, an assortment of other flowers, big open sky, green grass, lush pepper trees, views the vineyards and the rolling hills, and that’s where John and I will become husband a wife. Isn’t [...]
