I must say this is one awesome wedding! We filmed this wedding over 14 hours and Sharon edited this piece in 5 hours. The new additional Canon 7D we brought was indeed useful. We also had an extra pair of hands, our new junior cinematographer helped us in this wedding. Having an extra person really takes the pressure off a little.
Our day started with coverage at Sue Ann’s home at Mont Kiara at 7am. Upon arrival, I was indeed happy to find large windows that enables the beautiful morning light into the home. The place had plenty of space. Importantly, all three Sue Ann’s sister were there getting their make up done as well. This adds meaning to the film as they are all close with each other. I was glad to find Sue Ann had a good night rest before. She was full of energy in the morning and was really excited about the day. Slowly, the “chee-muis” arrived one by one and started to plan the challenges for James. Sue Ann’s parents were very happy parents that morning because they waited this day to come for a long time. I really like the parents because they are so friendly and humble, especially Mr Chew who is really funny. All of us felt so comfortable to be at this wedding.
James is such a sport during the gate crashing games. He was all prepared for the challenges and nothing will stop him from getting his beautiful bride. The highlights of the games was they had to consume pig stomach, tongue, testicles and ear. Lookout for Sue Ann’s brother-in-law, Mark who took a big bite at the pig’s tongue.
The wedding was solemnized at One World Hotel by Sue Ann’s close friend, Elise. Sue Ann and Elise were good friends back in their days at Biola University. Since then, Elise has went on to become a church minister. Elise started the ceremony by reminding what the couple love and admire about each other. This makes it meaningful because it really remind them why they have made the decision to get married and to stay in love for the lifetime.
We truly enjoyed ourselves at this wedding despite we were extremely tired by the end of the night. It was a real honor to have been chosen by James and Sue Ann to be the storyteller of their day.
