23 February 2008 ~ Ramesh & Queenie's Wedding @ Kuantan

This is the second chapter of Ramesh & Queenie's Wedding which was held at Kuantan. This time around, it was following a more Chinese tradition where the groom had to go through some "hurdles" in order to get to the bride. This was followed by a tea ceremony and then the elegant wedding dinner. All in all, it was a great experience photographing this couples wedding, and I'm sure everyone had a very memorable experience. I hope that I manage to do them justice, as I'm sure Queenie was very anxious to see what Ramesh had to go through. Also, Ramesh, you are a really lucky guy to have such good buddies supporting you all the way, and of course luckier to find a fantastic bride like Queenie! So here is some of the pictures, as I go through editing the rest. Enjoy all and do leave a comment. This time, more time to edit the blog so will leave some description too....

A beautiful morning sunrise on the East Coast...
Just love the gown....
Roses and a pearl set that was a gift from her friend from Japan...
Anxiously waiting......
And how can we leave out all her "Chi Mui's" or sisters for the day...
Ramesh had no trouble accomplishing this hurdle ...
No cheating guys!!!!
You aren't coming in Ramesh!!
And finally... Tea ceremony...
Your hand in mine....
And of course, a kiss....
Their wedding dinner, held at MS Garden Hotel in Kuantan...
Just look at Queenie... like a model..
Just before their grand entrance.
Queenie in her tailor made Cheongsam....
And a special surprise, a song written by her relatives and sung to them on stage!
And of course, a toast to end the night!

16/17 February 2008 ~ Ramesh & Queenie's Wedding Day

I met Queenie the first time over supper about 12.30am. That was right after a wedding I covered. She was nice and pleasant and I very thankful that Apples-Studio was given the opportunity to photograph their wedding. They had a Baha'i Wedding which was a first for me as well. Very interesting and most importantly, simplicity. Really enjoyed both Ramesh and Queenie as they are a really nice couple which I enjoyed workin with. Looking forward to their other wedding reception coming weekend in Kuantan too! Till then, some shots over the last weekend.
