Wedding Day: Bridgit & Alan

Wedding Day: Bridgit & Alan

On 16th January 2010, Bridgit O’Donovan and Alan Soon officially became Mr & Mrs O’Soonovan.

A magnificent wedding by all standards, the garden ceremony was held at The Lawn at The Raffles Hotel in the presence of relatives and close friends.

I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to work with Bridgit & Alan, and share part of their happiness.

It was also an opportunity for me to really stretch the legs on my new Canon EF 50mm F/1.2L USM lens.

I have to say though, that Bridgit must be one of the most effervescent brides I’ve ever come across.  The moment she rounded the corner of The Lawn, she was smiling from ear to ear and pretty much didn’t stop giggling the entire way through.

You can see that it even started affecting the groom and the maid of honour too (her sister).

The tea ceremony was interesting…

On the one hand you had Alan’s parents who took the whole affair very seriously, whereas Bridgit’s parents just laughed and had a ball – I’m surprised I managed to get this solemn shot in between the smiles.

Mr and Mrs O’Soonovan were then official!

With the official business over, first fix the hair, then the bride received some much needed champagne.

While the children seemed to understand that there was an ‘adults’ thing’ going on, nothing was going to stop them having fun – I think we found ourselves a new Singapore Idol (see kid with mic), a real showman.

Photos with family and friends – you can tell from their expressions that everyone was having a brilliant time.

The bride and groom with all the girlfriends (and one extra person – how’d he get in there?). What a gorgeous group of individuals.

And that wraps up Bridgit & Alan’s wedding.

I spoke to the bride today and she commented “You know, it was hectic leading up to the day, but it all went by so fast… and I wish I could do it all again”.

Now when a bride says that she wants to do it all again, you know it was a great wedding!
