In Tokyo? Tell us more!<\/b><\/b><\/p><p>Instead of a pre-wedding shoot, we chose to do a post-wedding shoot due to our tight work schedule. It was a great idea because not only did we enjoy the shoot and were not in the least stressed out, the trip also served as our honeymoon! We didn\u2019t have a specific theme or concept, only that we wanted our photos to be done in a travelogue style with a touch of journalistic and artsy flair.<\/p><p>Since Tokyo was a city that left the deepest impression on us even after we\u2019ve travelled to other cities for wedding shoots, we chose to have our post-wedding shoot done there. It\u2019s got a personality of its own and we simply love the artsy and old streets in this ever-moving city.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"TokyoLove4\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/TokyoLove4-e1368503227342.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"TokyoLove5\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/TokyoLove5-e1368503220989.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"TokyoLove6\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/TokyoLove6-e1368503181532.jpg\"\/><p><b><b>We heard there were casino games and plenty of partying on your wedding day \u2013 do tell us more!<\/b><\/b><\/p><p>Our vision for our wedding day was to have a simple wedding that ends with plenty of partying. True to our vision, the celebration ended with plenty of booze and partying in Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore&#8217;s ballroom. Even though it was a Wednesday night, many of our guests stayed back for the party! The enjoyment of our guests were important to us as well, so we prepared a few tables of casino games during our cocktail reception and left &#8220;wedding notes&#8221; on the guests tables for them to answer some questions on us to keep them entertained throughout the celebration. We even prepared prizes for the top 3 winners of the casino games! Needless to say, all our guests were very happy and impressed with the experience.<\/p><p><b><b>What did your family and friends say about the post-wedding shoot?<\/b><\/b><\/p><p>All our family and friends were thoroughly in love with our post-wedding photographs! They loved the style and how unique our photographs turned out to be. We still have friends telling us how much they adored the photographs months after the shoot! Personally, we ourselves are in awe with how our photographs turned out to be. It was wonderful, perfect and like we\u2019d envisioned it to be, and even today, we still can\u2019t stop admiring them.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"TokyoLove7\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/TokyoLove7-e1368503175778.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"TokyoLove8\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/TokyoLove8-e1368503166819.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"TokyoLove9\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/TokyoLove9-e1368503159530.jpg\"\/><p><b><b>Looking back, were there any moments during your post-wedding shoot that were especially memorable or special to you?<\/b><\/b><\/p><p>Our post-wedding shoot was plenty of fun on the whole, especially when the locals and tourists in Harajuku came up to us and requested to take a photograph with us!<\/p><p>Although the weather was quite bad, it was a thoroughly memorable and fun photoshoot. We were impressed with and deeply touched by our photographer\u2019s can-do attitude even though he fell sick during the shoot.
