Mechelle and Matthias’ wedding. Yesterday we were honoured with the task of photographing Mechelle and Matthias’ wedding. The ceremony was at Cotton Tree Drive Marriage Registry, and almost didn’t happen. Apparently in Hong Kong, you cannot be late for you wedding time slot as the Registry runs on a very tight schedule and if you are more than 10 minutes late you miss out. As it was the happy couple were rushed thru the whole process with barly time to catch their breath. Another thing, make sure your wittnesses bring their passport or ID card as they will be needed, as it turns out I the photographer ended up being one of the wittnesses and when the ceremony was starting the Magristrate said for me to sit at the table, someone had to sit in for me and then I had to sign the marriage license. All in all it was a fun light ceremony and the rush job did nothing to diminish the couples enjoyment of the event. They were one of these couples so clearly in love that nothing would have spoiled the day. And as luck would have it, once the ceremony was over and everyone went outside, the rain had all but stopped. So then on to pictures in the park by the waterfall…
After pictures in the park the 50-60 guests were all bussed up to the Peak Lookout Restaurant for a lovely sit down luncheon… Wow do they ever have the best Tira Misu in the world…
