It was the near to perfect wedding!!! All these would not have happened without the help of XDs & JMs, both side parents and families... I hope all you have as much fun as Bester and I did!!!
Jasmine will like to thank the following people:
To all the jiemeis: Thank you so much for the coming together and giving such great ideas for the gate crashing!!! Thank you to Wen, Jen, Ying & Carinne for the beautiful gift which has the BBSS friends’ blessings!!! Best gift I have ever received. Thank you for coming up with such a beautiful love contract! Simply love it. Really.
1) Wen: Thank you so much for being such a wonderful main coordinator for the wedding. Your leadership has ensured that all the things ran smoothly during the whole wedding. Thank you so so so much for standing in for being the emcee for the night. You did a GREAT job despite so many last minute changes to the script. Words cannot describe how grateful we are to you.
2) Jenny: Thank you so much for always being with me throughout the day, ensuring that I looked pretty! Thank you for being a “runner” for me, especially when I had actually forgotten my “can-can” (hahaa… which you kept referring as “pom pom”) in the morning!!! Thank you!
3) Carinne: Thank you so much for leading the gate crashing so well that the guys actually did enjoy themselves even when they were tekan-ed! Thank you so much for ushering the guests for the church service and also taking care of the sitting arrangement for the night.
4) Ying: Thank you so much for being so onz during the gate crashing and helping during and after the church service. Thank you!

7) Hui: You looked stunning with the permed hair and wearing the tube dress!!! Bester commented that you look very lady like! Haa. Thank you so much for helping me to buy the wooden ruler too. Thank you.
8) Why Keen: Thank you so much for all the hard work put in for the montage and express highlights!!! Our guests were very touched. Some of them even cried! AWWwwwWww...

DOMO ARIGATO GOZAIMASHITAKA!
Friendship knows no boundaries.
I have seen some REAL love on my wedding day last Saturday… Friends who CARED from the bottom of their hearts...
N I'm truly touched, so much that just thinking of you all makes me wanna cry! Boohoo... Sob sob...
There is one particular person though, that is so pivotal, without him the wedding would be a flop. He is none other than, KENNY LIM.
He followed us during the church rehearsals a week before the wedding, proactively asked questions, settled all the AV, music, photo montage, lightings single-handedly for the church as well as the banquet! No questions asked, a chop chop and very steady individual, he GETS things done.
Dropped by house the night before, helped me be an "audience" to practice my script (which I eventually scrapped cos Jasmine's was so good already and mine was too serious sounding and anticlimax)... Kenny regularly reported to me on updates, whispering into my ear "Swee, all set up, good to go." But the biggest thing he did, at 6pm the night before, he said, "Take out all your montages, make copies of them.. N take out your march in songs and test them. It was then we knew they were faulty. We rushed to Popular at AMK Hub, he bought DVDs, burned them, and he ensured they worked before going home. Thank you KENNY LIM!
Next up Weiguang, super man. Did an excellent job for the banquet as overall coordinator. Managed the reception table well like all good infantry officers do! Salute!~ Made sure all buses arrived on time. Arranged tables before I arrived to take photos. Helped me "block" a few boozes and weird concoctions. Thank you!
N Elvin, my cute and lovely friend. Thank you for borrowing your brother's car for my wedding (although I think your own White Lancer is very cool too!) Thank you for driving everyone up and down without any complains.. With you driving, our helpers were in safe hands.
Thank you Songhui! Thanks for taking care of the Angpows, for ushering the guests at church so professionally and proactively.. Thank you Zhirong, for the pushups! I couldn't see who the other person was who did pushups but thanks! Thank you Leslie my dear bro! Thank you for helping me to sing the song at her house when I forgot the lyrics! Friends forever!!
Thank you all for playing the games so sportingly and I loved the pole dance!
N last but not least, thank you John, my man. Became a last minute stand in emcee with only a few weeks notice. Bought a $300+ suit just for my wedding, brought me to toilet to wash up when I was drunk, entertained my guests and personally walked to every table to distribute carpark coupons... THANK YOU!!! See you at your housewarming next January!
Once again, GOD BLESS YOU ALL! - Ter ^_^ (Happily married)
PS: I can’t wait to meet up and give you all a treat! By the way, my greatest regret was engaging Kriston for the buffet! Why the sample during the roadshow and the actual day standard so different!!?? Kriston if u r reading this pls seriously think about it… The service staff were excellent though… But still….. &*$#$@^
we are truly blessed...
