Decked out with peonies and hydrangeas, the John Jacob Ballroom was transformed into a magical space; when the confetti canons were fired, it was truly a moment that the lovebirds will never forget.

Real wedding of Roy Fong & Cheryl Wee
Roy & Cheryl’s wedding needs no introduction! Their wedding celebrations kick off in June with the guo da li, which is the traditional betrothal ceremony whom Roy & Cheryl hold traditions close to their hearts. Like a scene out of the Chinese Movie, their tea ceremony day started with a procession where the bride, donned in her mother’s elaborately embroidered kua she wore at her own wedding 32 years ago complete with a headdress was carried in a sedan by the groomsmen, then in Roy’s arms to their new home.
They also later on a separate day held their Holy Matrimony at the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd followed by a dinner reception at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore.
