We love this tongue-in-cheek proposal that happened in a place you’d least expect – THIMUN (The Hague International Model United Nations). While the delegate from Monaco (who is rather handsome, if we may say) was giving his speech, his constant deviation from the rules and subject led to the chair interjecting from time to time. His response? Watch and see…

P.S. The pretty girl who was proposed to is Malaysian!

P.P.S. This is not a serious proposal, it was done in jest and they’re both 18 years old! But it’s still cute, right? “Like”.

The island of Bali, Indonesia is world renowned for its beauty and mystique – and if you’re planning a wedding in South East Asia, why not consider getting hitched in one of the most beautiful places in the region? After all, some of the local resorts have extensive wedding facilities. Here are some of our faves…

Ayana Resort and Spa Bali

Set on 77 hectares of cliff-top tropical gardens perched 35 metres above Jimbaran Bay, Ayana provides you with majestic views in a secluded location, just 10 kilometres from Bali’s airport.

And of all the resorts in Bali, Ayana seems to have the most extensive variety of wedding packages and venues to complement its beauty. From seaside chapels (they actually have two!) to garden weddings and even a private jetty, Ayana will have you spoilt for choice.

Conrad Bali Resort and Spa

Located on Jalan Pratama Raya in Tanjung Benoa, north of Nusa Dua Beach, the Conrad Bali Resort’s claim to fame is its extensive facilities, including a massive garden and their own, custom-built wedding chapel.

One of a kind, the chapel provides you with gorgeous ocean vistas as the backdrop for your big day. There’s even a dedicated professional wedding planner who can assist you with all the preparations, the legal and religious ceremony and the reception.

If you fancy getting married in an ocean-side chapel, do consider Conrad Bali.

The Melia Garden Villas

The Melia Garden Villas are located within the premises of the Melia Bali Villas Spa Resort in Nusa Dua Beach. There is a quaint covered area near the beach especially appointed for weddings, which might interest those with simpler tastes and adventure running in their blood. Plus the resort management can arrange for all the legalities involved in the process.

So, for a more quaint Bali wedding experience, why not try it out?

Jimbaran Villas

Okay, so the resort wedding is not everybody’s cup of tea. In that case, why not hold your wedding in a private villa overlooking the sea?

Jimbaran is a thriving fishing village that embraces a white sand beachfront overlooking a gentle bay on Bali’s southern coastline. It is an area that strongly maintains its cultural values and is a place to enjoy the simple pleasures that life has to offer. Jimbaran Bay is renowned for its mesmerizing sunsets and grilled seafood served in cafés all along the beach. Also, it is home to numerous seaside private villas perfect to hold a wedding in.

These villas range in price and facilities, so you can pick and choose to cater to your needs.

Kupu-Kupu Barong Villas and Tree Spa

Nestled in the lush valley in the heart of Bali just ten minutes outside of the town of Ubud, Kupu-Kupu Barong is a 5-star hotel enclosed by three hectares of lush tropical gardens overlooking the Ayong River valley. What better place to get hitched surrounded by greenery?

The resort has 34 luxurious villas and even a spa by  L’Occitane, so you can be well prepared and totally beautiful for your big day.

Ubud Hanging Gardens

Ubud Hanging Gardens is a haven of peace set among the smoky volcanoes and emerald rice terraces at the heart of Bali. The resort hangs over a gorge with an exquisite temple on the opposite cliff. Its luxury pool villas are built in traditional style, as if in a Balinese village.

The specialty of the resort is the unique floating wedding, set atop the horizon-edge pool. They can also arrange for a ceremony on the terrace with dramatic views over the river valley.

Novus Gawana Resort and Spa

For those seeking something different, why not get hitched in a monsoon forest? On the tip of the unspoiled monsoon forest of West Bali National Park, Novus Gawana Resort and Spa is ideally located for the nature lovers in the tranquil Menjangan Bay with a view of the clear blue sea and northern Bali mountains.

From the very well-equipped spa to the opulent villas, Novus Gawana is yet another great choice for your big day.

Nikko Bali Resort and Spa

From its position atop a 40-metre cliff, the Nikko Bali offers stunning views of the Indian Ocean. Its main attraction though, as far as brides and grooms-to-be are concerned, is the extensive Wiwaha Wedding Chapel & Shamita Reception complex, a facility completely built from the ground up for weddings.

Perched on a secluded and picturesque cliff top in the resort grounds, the complex provides an exquisite venue to celebrate your love with your partner.

So, what do you think? Come on, get packing xoxo

There’s no better way to celebrate a bride-to-be than with a bridal shower. Preparing a bridal shower isn’t that impossible a task if you get good advice and help from people who know their stuff, but where do you start?

1. Get crafty!

Plan an arts-and-crafts project to break the ice especially if you’re one who hangs out with artistic crowds. Stock up on Play-Doh, paper, finger paint, and collage materials for all of your guests and brace yourself for some big fun!

2. Mind your manners.

The idea here is to have your guests answer extremely hilarious wedding etiquette questions. Write a wedding etiquette question on each index card — the more outrageous the scenario, the better. Think of some nuptial nightmares like: What do you do if the best man accidentally trips the bride? If two groomsmen get involved in a brawl at the altar? If you see the groom’s uncle stealing a couple of wine bottles from the underground cellar?

Hand out one etiquette card to each guest and have her write down an honest response to the situation. Then, have the bridal party gather all the cards and read the questions and answers aloud.

Let bygones be bygones

Whatever your past relationship or marriage was – however it started and ended – ultimately it has to be completely dead and done for before you even consider starting anew. Still, it does get harder to let things go as we grow older. We over-analyze our mistakes and end up too paralyzed in fear to move forward.

Just remember the valuable lessons you have learned – and carry on with your life.

One with the family

As partners and parents, we have been juggling our roles to ensure the smooth operation of the family unit. Unfortunately, when a marriage ends – especially when there are children involved – a new marriage can never truly begin unless you find a way to be comfortable with one role without the other.

First, you can start by learning how to trust your children, sharing with them in entirety the hows and whys involved in the decision to embark on this new journey of yours. Encourage and allow them to take part in it with you, not just as someone coming along for the ride.

Grow with others

If it gets too much, why not try to seek help and advice from relatives or friends who have gone through the throes of remarriage? While it might be a touchy subject for some, many would be happy to help a friend or relative in need.

Get together and ask them for ideas to solve problems you are stumped on; a fresh perspective often helps. Also, having gone through similar issues themselves, they should readily understand. Make a list of things bugging you the most and go through it with them.

Focus on the now

More often than not, one of the biggest days in a woman’s life is her wedding day. In fact, we have an entire industry devoted to it! So, why not set yourself to have a joyous union with a wonderful celebration, even if it is your second time?

Sure, to some, you “only get married once”, but now that you have been given the opportunity to get married once more, why not make the best of it?

Chinoise what? Just in case you were wondering, chinoiserie is (originally) French for an object or decoration reflecting Chinese qualities or motifs. If you’re planning a spring wedding or a party pertaining to Asian cultures or travel, well you’re in luck! Here are some ideas of ways to incorporate a little chinoiserie chic into your wedding.

Cherry blossom icing? Talk about yum! The cake topper translates to “Double Happiness,” an auspicious Chinese blessing. And of course, no Chinese wedding tea ceremony can ever be complete without an heirloom tea set…

Chinoiserie programs, anyone? Come on, you gotta love the DIY Chinese frog buttons! The jars could be filled with scrumptious little treats, like macadamias, rock candy or even Jelly Bellies!

Don’t you just hate it when you have to chuck away your wedding decorations when the party is over? Here’s a tip: always be on the lookout for fun, functional and reusable wedding decor. Chinoiserie-inspired plates and dividers are a couple of good ideas!

Sources: Elizabeth Anne Designs, Chic Boutique Favors

Hang them or place them in your guests’ cocktail glasses, paper parasols are versatile and so easy to work with! For instant elegance, hand out paper parasols to guests at your garden wedding or hang them throughout your outdoor canopy. Remember, it’s all about assaulting the senses!

Chinoiserie is all about fashion, luxurious fabrics, exquisite detailing and adopting a modern interpretation of oriental mystique. Like what you see? You know what to do ;-)

It’s the weekend before CNY! Since it’s likely most of you have already started the long drive towards the anniversary dinner, we thought it’d be a good time to break from the norm. Here’s an article on why it’s okay to think about marriage – even if it’s not your time. A shout-out to all our non-engaged readers (yes, we think of you too!)

So I was having myself a nice, quiet little breakfast of toast and marmalade, innocently flipping through a bridal magazine when I suddenly remembered something that’s so easy to overlook: How many people out there read bridal magazines and websites when they’re actually nowhere near planning a wedding? The answer: More than you think.

I wish I could give you the actual statistics but amazingly enough, not many people have researched the number of unengaged women who read bridal media. *gasp* Anyway, chew on this: When one lucky lady runs screaming towards her BFFs, holding up a significantly embellished left hand, how often is it that the group will later retreat to a meeting in which all four or five or nine of them end up poring over bridal magazines together? And how many of the doomed blessed (always a bridesmaid…) in that group had not been so lucky?

I don’t know how we do it, really, with all the smug, engaged or married women flashing their Cartier in our faces and asking, “Why are YOU reading that?” as if we’ve got no business to do so. Lady, if readership were that limited, WGA would have gone under yesterday.

I don’t need a rock weighing down my finger just to be able to appreciate the art of weddings and all that comes with them. And I especially don’t feel the need to justify my daydreams. What most people take for granted is that bridal media exists not just for the wedding planners but for the wedding dreamers as well. How else would a little girl (or certain boys – we ain’t judging) grow up knowing what she wants – with cut-outs from Men’s Health? I don’t think so.

It’s all about being well-organised, as is in our natural feminine instincts, and planning well ahead. Yes, it may not always be a good idea considering the dynamics of the wedding industry (bridal fashion, in particular) and God knows if some of your favourite vendors and venues will still be in business by the time you get to call them.

What I’m trying to say here is… Single ladies, I feel your pain. It’s hard, I know it. Sticking Post-its on pictures of the dresses you love, hoping he pops the question before they go out of style or Badgley and Mischka decide to stop making them in your evolving size.

The economy is no help, either. When Kid Chan was snap happy at my sister’s wedding way back in 2005, he charged her about a third of what he would charge me today and that was with all the fancy trimmings like the storyboard etc.

Scary, isn’t it? What will inflation make me pay for a wedding by the time it’s my day?

Picture courtesy of BRIDES on 22

Someday, as everyone tells me. I don’t know about you, but I’m sick of that phrase. Someday for me is starting to look like Never – and that’s bad. I can’t even be the stereotypical crazy spinster with the cats because my cat ran away. Okay, so he didn’t really run away – he just prefers to live it up in KL with my parents and leave me to rot alone, the traitor.

Take your time, enjoy your youth. What youth? And I’m sorry, but I never listed ‘wrinkles’ along with ‘pearls and sparklies’ for my bridal accessories.

Have fun with your single friends. Believe me, I do! But after the “Goodnight” and all the air kisses, I still have to walk into an empty house.

Focus on moving up in your career. That’s nice, but I’m editor of this joint and unless you expect me to buy this business from my boss I really have no idea where we’re going with this ladder-climbing suggestion.

More money to spend on yourself. Yes, and I’ll bear that in mind tonight when I get into bed and spoon with a wad of cold, hard cash in classic Scrooge McDuck style.

Sooner or later, everyone will come to a point in their lives where they want more out of it. If you’re looking around and thinking, “Yeah I’ve got it all already” I’d take a wild stab at your age but I wouldn’t want to take the risk of you actually stabbing me in return.

Picture courtesy of Braedon Photography

Please don’t take that stab – I’m not married yet. And yes, I am aware that it is not a handicap and I really don’t have to get married but I do want to. The thought of going past my expiration date has about as much appeal as Justin Bieber’s greatest hits (read: misses) on loop.

The fact remains that no man is a Manhattan and we all crave love and companionship and a little more. But what happens when you can’t have more? Shocking as this may sound, there are women for whom the idea of living together before marriage is not an option – and we shouldn’t necessarily be punished for that, either, particularly if the choice is not our own.

I know the picture isn’t always pretty. In a workplace that’s ninety percent female, one can count on a lot of gossip – which almost always includes stories of marriages gone as wrong as the local democracy. You’ve heard them all: the woman whose husband left her for a younger model (after five kids) and beat her up when she protested, the conman who ran off with all her money after the honeymoon, the Woods and Schwarzenegger wannabes, I could go on.

No, she's not mine but I sure wish! Picture courtesy of Eliza Badrillah

Even then, if you’re pleasantly married and especially if you have children, you cannot look me in the eye and tell me that it’s not worth it. Think of how many couples out there are still together even if he refuses to put the toilet seat down and she keeps nagging him about it. As bad as things are, guess what? For some unfathomable reason, you are still married. You still decided to hold on to the person who made you grumble just five minutes ago. So there must be something there worth holding on to, and everyone has a right to find it – or at least try to.

Nobody ever said there can be only one kind of happy ending. And that happy ending may not necessarily start today. Or this year, even. But hey, you know what? It will happen someday. And when the planning begins – man, will you be glad you have a big, fat folder with twenty years’ worth of ideas and cut-outs.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a wedding to fake because that’s the only way I can get a decent quotation from these snooty florists.

Thanks for reading, whatever your current Facebook relationship status is. Mine says Hopeful, by the way.

The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, and to mark this very auspicious time, we at WGA will take a little detour to look into the mechanics of an old custom, just for fun. Bear in mind, of course, that the custom of ang pow giving is also one of our favourite parts of the quintessential Asian wedding :)

Now, as with all long standing traditions, it’s hard to say what are the proper rules regarding The Red Envelope except for what we can observe. But, we’ll try our best…

What are Ang Pows?

They are quite simply red envelopes with a certain amount of money inside, and it generally symbolizes good luck. It is originally called hongbao in Mandarin or li xi / lai see as pronounced in Cantonese. Li xi can roughly be translated into ‘good for business’.

Other than the custom of giving it out on Chinese New Year, ang pows are also given on other auspicious occasions such as birthdays and weddings.

Giving and Receiving

So, who should give out ang pows? In general, the local traditions state that married couples and the elderly should give the packets to unmarried juniors. Also, it is expected that ang pows be given during the 15 days of the celebration.

In recent years we have seen ang pows being given by older people to the young even after they get married. Also, some workers get ang pows from their bosses or customers as a token of goodwill or appreciation.

At weddings, ang pows are given by guests as tokens to help offset the (sometimes overwhelming) cost of a Chinese wedding.

Enough is Enough?

Now that we’ve established what it is, how much money do you actually put in? Well, there are a few traditions regarding that. First, the amount itself will vary based on the closeness of relationship, in terms of family ties – more to people you’re extremely close to (brother, nephew) and lesser to acquaintances.

For wedding ang pows, it’s often expected that the amount be varied according to the type of wedding being held as well, as we have said earlier how this type of ang pow is to offset the costs of the reception.

The next tradition states that the amount of money must be given in EVEN numbers, with the number 8 being prioritized (as it sounds similar to “fortune” in Chinese) and the number 4 being vehemently avoided (as it sounds like “death” in Chinese). Also, new bank notes are preferred.

Are we feeling the Gong Xi Fa Cai yet? Picture courtesy of www.en.trade2cn.com

Other Things of Note

Well now to the little, less important details regarding ang pow. For one, you are usually to avoid opening the packet up in front of your relatives and friends. Also, while the envelopes themselves are usually red in colour as per it’s name, nowadays gold, yellow and orange are acceptable as well.

So, these are the cold hard facts on ang pows to guide you in the holiday season (and beyond). Hopefully it’ll be useful to you in the very near future xoxo

Try not to outshine the bride, ladies - unless you can't help it, like Pippa Middleton ;-)

Maid/Matron of Honour

• Plan the shower. And, if the bride wants one, the bachelorette party.
• Keep a record of gifts. The MOH should jot down what presents the bride receives at her shower, and who gave them to her.
• Do some dress shopping. Go with the bride to look for her gown, and if she asks, help shop for the bridesmaids’ dresses.
• Coordinate the bridesmaid duties. As the “chief” bridesmaid, the MOH should schedule dress fittings.
• Be the bride’s right-hand woman. Give her help where needed: address the invitations, write out the place cards, weigh in on the cake, assemble the reception play list, etc.

Really, who says bridesmaid dresses are frumpy? Look at Jessica Alba! Source: Flutterfly Events

Bridesmaids

• Attend all dress fittings.
• Make sure you know where you need to be and what you need to be doing at all times.
• Be a source of emotional support for the Bride at all times in the run up to the day and on the day itself.

Sources: Perfect Wedding Day, Gear Patrol

Best Man

• The best man hosts and coordinates the bachelor party for the groom. He may cover the costs of the bachelor party or share them with the other groomsmen.
• He assists the groom with dressing for the wedding, and makes sure personal items are returned to the groom’s house afterwards.
• The best man is responsible for safe keeping of the bride’s wedding ring until it is time for the exchanging of the rings.
• The best man is in charge of toasting during the reception. If there are any special greetings to be read from those unable to attend, he reads these to the couple.

Groomsmen

• Assist in organising the bachelor party.
• Assist in any decoration setting up or picking up of wedding items.
• Create and follow the time schedule for the wedding.
• Assist with the packing up at the end of the reception.

Parents

Of all their duties, the bride’s parents’ role as host and hostess of the reception is foremost. This honour is theirs because traditionally they pay for part, if not all, of the festivities. They play a special role at the reception offering as much (or as little) advice and assistance as their children request.

• Make guests feel welcome and ensure everything runs smoothly.
• Help the bride and groom coordinate the invitations, ceremony and reception details.
• Keep an eye on the food and drink supplies and write last-minute checks to suppliers and vendors.

The father of the bride has his set of designated tasks. Besides his duties as host, which may include a welcome toast at the reception, he also escorts his daughter on her last walk as a single woman.

Also, it is of the essential that the father of the bride dances with his daughter at her wedding. Not sure if your motown moves are good enough for the dance floor? Check out this video and you’ll think otherwise!

Finally, the parents of the bride should aim to be the last to leave the reception, perhaps make arrangements for gifts to be taken to the new couple’s home, and oversee the winding down and closing out of the party.

All in all, a bridal party’s chief job is to support the couple’s marriage, encourage their love and help them see through arguments and fights long after the wedding day. Rest assured, it won’t be all work and no play. It’ll actually be more fun than you think! :-)

My sweet tooth’s telling me it’s been a while since we had something on dessert. Meet Darna Aminuddin, the gorgeous producer-turned-founder of Pinkies Cupcakes…

Pictures courtesy of Pinkies Cupcakes.

From film to fondant – I’m guessing there’s a very interesting story here. How did you start out?

I was in the Television Commercial industry for 8 years, but I’ve always loved cupcakes – eating them and baking them! In the beginning it was always a way to de-stress but I started to think that if I ever retired from the Commercial industry this would be something I’d definitely want to do. And so it got to a point where the industry was really tiring me out and I decided to leave. and I guess I left my first love – film – to pursue my second love – food!

Tell us more about your products and services. Do you specialize in smaller events or would you also work on a larger scale?

We make cupcakes for any occasion from personal consumption to baby showers, parties and specialty themes like Halloween and Christmas. At the moment we’re concentrating on smaller events, though I do have my sister Nada on board as a creative consultant and taste tester. I would love to work on big events such as weddings but I’m going to take it one step at a time and hopefully, I will get round to that. Engagements and hen nights are a sure thing, though.

Pinkies Cupcakes has earned a lot of good reviews – and having personally tasted them myself, I say you deserve them. What are you doing different?

I guess you might say for me, taste is more important than anything. I’d rather have a delicious-tasting cupcake than one that’s so lavishly decorated. I’m much more a substance over style kind of person, which is why my decor is a little more simplified compared to some of the cupcakes out there. I always worry that too much decorating will take attention away from the taste. Also, we only use fresh, top-quality ingredients and most of them are imported as well. I don’t use any preservatives and my fondant decor is painstakingly, but lovingly handmade.

What’s the best part of your job?

Working from home! My previous job had a lot of late nights and it’s no different with baking when you have a tonne of orders, but at least I don’t have to worry about coming home late at night, driving by myself, worrying that some nut job is going to tail my car. Also, I work on my own schedule, which leaves me more time to do my personal things (I haven’t been able to do that in 8 years so it’s good to catch up!). But the best part for me is that if I get too tired and need a bit of a rest – I actually can get it.

Words from the wise for our brides-to-be?

“You is kind. You is smart. You is important” – Aibileen Clark, The Help. I guess that’s the best advice that comes to mind from someone who has yet to unleash her inner Bride-zilla! :)

In all randomness: What’s…

…your favourite cupcake flavour?
Ooh, tough choice between red velvet with cream cheese frosting and chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting. Gun to my head, I’d say red velvet.

…the best food you’ve eaten at a wedding?
Sadly, it wasn’t a wedding that was here in Malaysia but it was at my cousin’s wedding in North Carolina. They served low country boil, which is basically sausages, shrimp, potatoes and corn boiled in spiced crab stock served on a bed of pilaf rice and steamed asparagus. I had to change out of my dress so I could eat some more!

…the strangest request you’ve had?
Nothing strange so far, unless you take into consideration some people who don’t pick up their orders and tell you to just “fridge it for them” till they are able to pick it up. That was two days after I had made the cupcakes. But I guess that’s part and parcel of starting out and working from home.

…the worst thing to see at a wedding?
Awkward speeches.

…your idea of romance?
John Cusack in Say Anything, boom box held above his head, playing Peter Gabriel’s In Your Eyes, serenading the girl he loves outside her bedroom window. Of course, if that ever happens to me, I’m sure my neighbours will be calling the cops.

Hungry? (wink). Drop Pinkies Cupcakes a note by visiting their Facebook page xoxo

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom

They say only fools rush in but you might not want to say that to Khloe Kardashian! After a month-long courtship, the reality star married LA Laker Lamar Odom (these Kardashians sure have a thing for basketballers, huh?). In what proved to be a tantalising finale to their brief courtship, Khloe wed Lamar at a private residence in Beverly Hills. Critics all over were convinced that the two lovebirds were just in it for the fame and that their marriage wouldn’t last. But the duo proved everyone wrong. They’ve been married for more than two years now. Major props!

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline

Because it wasn’t enough to make headlines for one of the shortest marriages of all time (55 hours) to childhood friend Jason Alexander, Brit-Brit surprised Hollywood again by marrying backup dancer, Kevin Federline after only three months (can somebody say oops she did it again?). And let’s just say, her life simply went downhill soon after.

They're still together; can you believe it?

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon

The diva extraordinaire and the America’s Got Talent host met on a video set and tied the knot in the Bahamas on April 30, 2008, after dating for a month. In spite of an 11-year age difference, these crazy kids are still going strong. Here they are showing a whole lotta love in Mimi’s new Christmas video with John Legend. You gotta admit it, they’re pretty sweet together :)

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee

What happens when a Playboy Playmate meets a glam metal band drummer? Only the predictable. Motley Crue drummer, Tommy Lee and voluptuous Baywatch star Pamela Anderson married after knowing each other for only 96 hours. The marriage lasted a somewhat remarkable three years!

Somehow, whenever I look at these two, two words always come to mind: Oprah and couch

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

After Katie ended her relationship with actor Chris Klein in early 2005, Cruise proposed just a few months later atop the Eiffel Tower on June 17, 2005. And how are they now? In a recent interview with People Magazine, Tom was quoted as saying, “Every day I fall more in love with her. It’s been quite an amazing five years because of her. She’s an incredible woman. She’s everything to me.” You can’t help but go aww :-)

Final words: It’s not always about how long you should date before marriage but more about how deep your relationship should be before making the commitment of sharing a life together. So do you think getting married after dating for a short period of time is a wise decision? :-)
