Hsin Yeow's thoughts: Endless Love



The lovely couple, Sylvia and Aubrey

Eleanor and I met Sylvia and Aubrey before their wedding to find out more about what they need. I knew I had found the right person in Eleanor to host Sylvia and Aubrey's wedding because they hit it off right away.

During the meeting, Sylvia mentioned that her cousins would like to perform a song during the wedding. So I arranged for them to attend the band's rehearsal. Eggy and Amanda turned out to be really sweet, and enthusiastic people with a penchant for jazz and oldies. They were so fired up by the rehearsal that they hung around afterwards at Matthew's place to practise on their own!

After the wedding, Sylvia and Aubrey sang the band's praises (see below). Eggy also proclaimed it to be "this was the best wedding he ever attended". Thank you so much for your compliments! The pleasure was ours, and we would like to wish Sylvia and Aubrey a lifetime of married bliss!

Wedding Tips:

(1) Ask your cousins to perform at your wedding!
(2) If the bride is walking into the ballroom with her father, a great song to perform is Butterfly Kisses
(3) Choose songs that reflect your feelings about getting married. In Sylvia's case, the song was Better Together

Compliments from the couple:

Hi Hsin Yeow,

We would like to thank Eleanor, Jun Xiong, Matthew and Wilson very much.

We had a wonderful time. The performance by the band was faultless. My relatives and friends really enjoyed themselves.

My cousin Aiky aka Eggy who performed with Amanda on that evening declared that this was the best wedding he ever attended and promised that if A Little Dream was still around when he has his wedding, he will definitely hire them !

We were really sorry to have missed most of the performance but I will like to specially point out three most memorable pieces played by the band. Matthew played what i believe was Butterfly Kisses for my march-in with my Dad. I was on the verge of tearing and highly emotional and also during the 1st march in with Aubrey, Jun Xiong sang Better Together. It expressed what we felt about being married.

Jun xiong and Eleanor sang it perfectly - Endless Love. This was what we felt throughout the whole celebration.

Thank you for making the wedding even more memorable and we definitely recommend having A Little Dream to complete every happily ever after wedding...
