Romantic Garden Wedding at The Straits Room The Fullerton Hotel 77\" \/><p><b><b>What was the theme of your wedding? <\/b><\/b><\/p><p><i>Alene: <\/i>Other than manually separating the fake floral petals that we bought on Taobao, we didn\u2019t hand-make anything. We just wanted our theme to be very simple and classy, and believed that the choice of our venue had already played a big part. Being a beauty blogger who loves her fresh florals with an Instagram husband who had pampered her with flowers since our dating days, we decided to go for a colour palette of mainly white, pink, and gold with some touches of green. I scrapped the idea of a wedding stylist and chose to jump straight into having just a florist decorate our venue. It was to be a very romantic garden luncheon set up \u2013 in the comfort of our venue of course. Singapore is sadly too humid to dine outdoors.   <\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"

An intimate set up in the company of our close family and friends. Everyone was mingling and taking pictures and it was smiles all around. There was no gatecrashing nor driving to and fro houses. It was heartwarming to see our bridal party and vendors going out of their way to make everything flow smoothly. We even had Akira\u2019s brother playing songs on the piano for our march-ins instead of the usual choices from Spotify. Our banquet manager was very experienced in ensuring there was no awkward waiting time for our guests too. We still catch ourselves smiling widely as we look back on our actual day pictures. <\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"
