Had they not taken a chance on love, we wouldn\u2019t be reading about their romantic vacation that led to their engagement, and the amazing three-day f\u00eate that was their wedding a year after. Their wedding took place on 13 February 2010.<\/p><div class=\"banner\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\">OA_show(5);<\/script><\/div><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-1.jpg\"\/><p><i>Davena:<\/i> We met at one of my events. But I\u2019d seen Lance around before. He was shy and sweet, and tall. I was attracted by the fact that he didn\u2019t talk to me. Haha!<\/p><p><i>Lance:<\/i> We first met at an event that she was throwing. By chance, I had enough liquid courage to make my way into the super private after-party, where I, also by chance, had a great conversation with my now wife. Right after, we left for a late night snack and before parting ways, I somehow had gathered enough courage to ask her to hang out again since we lived very near each other. After that, it was in the hands of fate.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-2.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-3.jpg\"\/><p><b><b>What was the proposal like?<\/b><\/b><\/p><p><i>Davena:<\/i> It was perfect! Literally! We were attending a friend\u2019s Valentine\u2019s Day wedding in Hua Hin and arrived the night before. Our beachside hut at Aleenta was beautiful. The moon was blood red. The stars were out. The waves were lapping onto the shore. The night breeze was so cool. We laid in the hammock for a while before going inside to slow-dance to Dinah Washington, which was playing on the room\u2019s iPod. We laid on the bed, cuddling, holding each other so tight. And that\u2019s when Lance proposed. The romantic buzz in the air was certainly on maximum charge!<\/p><p><i>Lance:<\/i> Ironically, the original proposal was somehow spoiled; the ring I had custom-made came out wrong, and after a lot of over-planning, a friend simply said to me, \u201cStop over-thinking things. Just do it when it feels right.\u201d And with that advice, we ended up in at the Aleenta in Hua Hin for a friend\u2019s wedding, and everything seemed to fall into place. From a blood red moon, to it being Friday the 13th, to being at such a beautiful location. My wife was laying on my chest, and something inside me, told me to do it, and I did. No ring, nothing. Just the perfect moment. The next morning, I made a nice little ring with string, and we shared the news with all.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-4.jpg\"\/><p><b><b>How did you get everything together for your wedding?<\/b><\/b><\/p><p><i>Davena:<\/i> Our wedding was also perfect! We decided to do it in Thailand, a year from the date Lance proposed. As he proposed in Aleenta in Hua Hin, we thought we\u2019d check out Aleenta in Phuket, as it\u2019s a direct flight from Hong Kong, rather than a four-hour car ride from Bangkok. After a bit of research, I suddenly remembered that an old friend, Jeanette Skelton, now lived in Phuket and was doing events there. Thank god I contacted her. She showed us an amazing venue \u2014 Jivana \u2014 during our recce trip in May. And that was it. Everything was ready to go for 13 February 2010, which happened to be Chinese New Year\u2019s eve!<\/p><p>The theme was \u201celephants,\u201d as it was so \u201cThailand.\u201d We had used elephants for the image on our Save The Date e-card because of the saying that \u201cElephants never forget.\u201d Lance also incorporated string into his typeface designs and our invites. We used a palette of red, grey and white to represent the summer and Chinese New Year vibe. As for planning, we did two recce trips in May and December before the wedding in February, and I would say we worked at a steady pace on the wedding for about six months.<\/p><p><i>Lance:<\/i> Thankfully, with the skills my wife has as an event planner, there was a lot of planning that was easily executed. My hardest job was to fold all 150 origami elephants for the guests, get my groomsmen in order, design all the invitations and Save The Date e-cards, and put together the slide show for the two nights. As for a theme, we went with elephants and string, in remembrance of the string ring I made.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-5.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-6.jpg\"\/><p><b><b>Did everything go smoothly on your wedding day?<\/b><\/b><\/p><p><i>Davena:<\/i> We had a three-day rundown for our wedding, which included a pre-wedding welcome dinner and a post-wedding sunset cocktail session. The timed rundown was eight pages in total. On the actual day, everything ran so smoothly, from rehearsals in the morning to getting ready, then the Chinese Tea Ceremony, then official family photographs, and soon enough, it was 5pm and all our 130 guests started to arrive.<\/p><p>We wanted everyone to have an amazing time so we\u2019d planned a long list of amazing experiences, including a celebrant friend who looked like Jesus Christ, a butterfly release at the ceremony, a Polaroid photo wall, a real baby elephant visit, a full open bar the entire night, four DJ friends spinning, a friend who sang for our First Dance, a magician for the kids, komloy lantern lighting, and even a Chinese lion dance at midnight to celebrate the new year!<\/p><p><i>Lance:<\/i> It was hectic but absolutely amazing. We both didn\u2019t get our vows done until half an hour before the ceremony! But it was a truly intimate family affair. We also ensured non-stop surprises for the guests and there were moments that we will cherish for years to come.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-7.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-8.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-9.jpg\"\/><im title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-10.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-11.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"PLUSHPHOTOGRAPHY\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Davena-Lance-12.jpg\"\/><p><b><b>It must have been an incredible experience for your family and friends!<\/b><\/b><\/p><p><i>Davena:<\/i> Like us, it was the most amazing wedding, Chinese New Year, Valentine\u2019s Day and Phuket holiday experience ever!
