Pearline and Ray’s Cosy, Warm Wedding at Revelry Hall Sentosa
Under the high ceiling and beautiful chandeliers of Revelry Hall, Pearline and Ray’s union was lovingly embraced by family and friends who supported them through various phases of life.
The wedding day is a whirlwind that often passes by in a blur. But remaining present in every moment ensured that Pearline and Ray felt overwhelmed in only the best way possible—surrounded by comforting warmth of family and friends who had gathered to celebrate in the brightly-lit, commodious Revelry Hall, located in The Outpost Hotel Sentosa.
How did the two of you meet?
We first met at Arts Camp during university orientation and actually didn’t have much of an impression of each other, until a semester later when Ray helped Pearl with her NUS Tembusu College interview!
What is it about your partner that you love the most?
Pearl: I love that he’s kind to everyone around him, endlessly patient with me and most importantly, would indulge in my silliness and quirks!
Ray: Out of everyone in the world, she understands me the best and makes me feel seen and heard.
What was the moment that made you realise that he/she was the one for you?
Pearl: I remember being touched by his sincerity during our initial dating days. He was out with friends, but rushed back to our college when he heard that I had injured my knee during tchoukball. It made me realize that he’d always show up for me and was someone that I could trust.
Ray: When I finally convinced her to finally get a cat instead of a dog…
Tell us about your proposal.
Ray: What started as a regular hike up Mount Batur during one of our Bali trips was actually something I’d been planning for months. We set off in the early hours, hiking for three hours through the dark and cold. The whole time, I was quietly checking my pocket, making sure the ring was still there. When we finally reached the summit, I met up with a local photographer, @richirizki, who had made the climb up with all his gear just for this moment. As the first light of sunrise lit up the sky, I got down on one knee and asked Pearl to marry me.
Pearl: The night before our hike, Ray started pulling out masks for us—which was unusual, because I’m usually the one who packs those things on our trips. That’s when I first got a little suspicious. But I went along with it anyway.
By the next day, we started the hike, and when we finally made it to the summit, I remember Ray continuously disappearing into a nearby hut. It was freezing, and I was wrapped up in a towel and this hilariously ugly striped shirt—I absolutely refused to take them off, even when Ray kept asking me to. Little did I know, it was because he was about to propose and was worried I’d regret wearing that in the photos!
It turned out to be such a beautiful and memorable proposal. I’ll always remember us sitting there for a while after, just soaking in the moment together as the sun rose and Mount Agung came into view.
Where was your wedding venue and why did you choose it as the place to wed?
We held our wedding at Revelry Hall, Sentosa. We loved that it was a cosy space but still spacious enough to accommodate our 160 guests. It had a pillar-less layout, high ceilings and beautiful chandeliers!
Did you have a wedding theme?
We did not have a specific theme, but we did want a very bright, playful yet warm vibe for our reception area. We repurposed the flowers for the wedding car and also added some decor that we brought from home, like coloured lamps and baskets. Our bridesmaids really helped to bring the vision to life and we’re so happy with how it turned out!
What was the day like and how were you feeling?
The day went by so quickly—just like we knew it would. We made an effort to be present in each moment and truly savour our wedding day. At the same time, we felt incredibly grateful for the help and support from our family and bridal party. Without them, we wouldn’t have been able to enjoy the day with such little stress.
We were also completely overwhelmed—in the best way—by the love we felt from everyone who traveled to be with us and celebrate. It’s such a special feeling to know that you’re surrounded by people who love and support you.
What did your family and friends have to say about your wedding day?
Our friends and family shared that it was a fun wedding—kudos to the bridal party for helping to host the games! People also shared that the wedding was cosy and very “us”. We hope that means that it was fun and warm at the same time!
Share with us the most memorable moment of your wedding?
Ray: One of the most memorable moments for me, was giving my speech. I honestly felt pretty nervous leading up to it—the idea of speaking in front of so many friends and family was overwhelming, even though I had practiced. What I didn’t expect was to get so emotional. It was quite surreal to look down at friends and family who were a part of the different stages of my life—childhood, school days, work, and everything in between. At that moment, I remember feeling grateful. Just seeing all those familiar faces in one room, coming together to celebrate with us, was something I’ll never forget. It made the whole day feel even more special and real.
Pearl: Much like Ray, what I remember most at the end of the wedding day was just how incredibly grateful I felt. Seeing all our friends and family in one place, there to celebrate with us, was something really special. Throughout the day, I felt so much warmth—people were checking in to see how we were doing, making sure we were okay, and were just being so present with us.
There was a mix of laughter, a few happy tears, and lots of little moments that made the day feel full of love. It’s hard to pick just one standout moment because the whole day felt like a blur in the best way possible.
But what really stayed with me was that overwhelming sense of being loved and supported. At the end of the night, I just felt full—grateful, happy, and so lucky to have shared that day with the people who mean the most to us.
What is one piece of advice you’d like to share with other couples currently planning their wedding?
Ray: Don’t outpace the moment, the day will fly by so try your best to stay present.
Pearl: Hiccups on your wedding day are totally normal—don’t stress when things don’t go exactly as planned. Just go with the flow and let those little moments be part of your day!
