JP - Mr Chia Ti Yu

Hi, As I received a number of PMs to share my experience, I thought that I would be easier if I start a new thread I post my experience here. Other couples who are solemnised by Mr Chia can also share their experiences here.

Basically, I found Mr Chia by calling randomly after trying all the other JPs mentioned in the forum were not available on the slot we wanted.

The 1st impression we got while speaking over the phone with him is that he is extremely friendly and approachable. You get that friendly feeling like a friend talking to you not someone with authority talking down to you.

After he confirmed from his schedule that he is available to solemnise for us, he then asked us whether we have checked out the steps to follow up for our solemnisation and gave us a detailed run-through of what we needed to do and prepare. Thereafter he email us the same instructions in an email so that we can follow-up on it. He also send us a summary of proceedings for the whole ceremony and gave us the choice of customising our vows(which we chose not to).

Prior to the actual date we met up to sign the consent form and he spent about 30 minutes talking to us giving us time to clarify whatever we needed and well as sharing some tips which came very helpful to us.

On the actual day, he came half an hour earlier to have a short rehearsal and run through every thing with us before the actual ceremony.

He even went the extra step to ask for the service staffs to standby to pull and push the chairs at junctures which we need to be seated or stand and even the postures for ring exchange. He also reminded us to pose for pictures during ring exchange and signing so that all these important moments could be captured.

He also accomodated to our last minute request to change the proceedings to mandarin although we had previously requested for english. He noted that we are nervous and gave us time to relax before commencing. After the ceremony and before the pronoucing of man & wife, he also gave us a meaningful sharing on maintaining a blissful and happy marriage and family.

Basically, both me and my wife are very touched by his attentativeness as he has made us felt important and that he is taking all steps to make sure that the whole ceremony runs smoothly and that he makes it memorable for us.

In essence, no regrets and Thumbs Up!

Hi everyone,

I just had Mr Chia as my JP. He was really detailed and helpful. And he's not boring at all I feel. Only thing is that we had our solemnization outdoors and it was really hot, he gave a rather lengthy sharing on how to maintain the marriage. I was ok with it but some of the guests were not. The older folks were quite happy with his sharing as they find it very meaningful. Guess it's pretty hard to please everyone! Overall I gave him a 3.8/5. Hope this helps!

is the JP's face very important? why does everyone ask for picture? A good looking JP but cant solemnize properly or have attitude problem, or a not so picture-friendly one but does a good job?

i requested for him via email w/o knowing how he looks like. He is very sincere and helpful, and professional via email and phone.

Ya, makes me recall writing a job app with the need paste pic! I think the brides concern here is more if the JP is pleaasant/approachable looking?

I guess it is human nature to be curious about looks. Who isn't? haha.

ITA with Cadence that most want a presentable and professional JP. But people should find out more about the JP overall experiences first, jmho.
 
Hi Dylan,

Thanks alot for forwarding me my request/s.

May I ask how long prior to your actual day did you confirm with Mr Chia?

My Solemnisation is on my AD, which will be in Jan 2009. Wondering if it is too early to book him..

Hi SY Chen

His sharing is on to love and respect one another...very nice and meaningful...especially the statement, 'Always say the three words 'I Love You' when one partner is angry so as to prevent any quarrels...
