Sofyan's Thoughts: What A Truly Fun-filled Wedding!
Not the usual Chinese wedding dinner style, it was more Western (or Down-Under) influenced wedding, with the good looking bride-and-groom and guests dancing on the dance floor to the mix of slow and upbeat '60s themed live-band.
Nevertheless, they still did the traditional Chinese Yam Seng x 3 (with Shawn's drum roll).
One highlight song must have been "Uptown Girl". In the words of Vivien herself: "Uptown Girl quite describes our relationship at the start, erm, where Anthony was a local Australian guy [with Vietnamese descent] who loves fixing his cars etc, wooing an international student (me). The locals have an assumption we're just rich and snooty. The video really depicted the start of our relationship."
In one touching moment, Vivien took a commendable effort to say her Thank-you speech in Vietnamese to her new in-laws. That sure was one proof that she is indeed not snooty =)
