Cheryl with her Vera Wang gown that she wore for her church ceremony. 

Here, she shares with us the story of her dress:

"Roy had planned and made bookings to bridal boutiques for me when I went over to Rome and London in June last year with my parents.

While I had my doubts, about how you would know the dress is the one when you see it, it happened for me in Vera Wang London."

"The general manager of Vera Wang London kindly invited us for a private trunk show and during which, I fell in love with the white Degmar Vera Wang gown.

I didn't even want to take it off! I told Roy right away and he said he would buy it for me."

The bride previously shared with us on how she envisioned her dream wedding:

"I’m walking down the aisle on my dad’s arm, and I’m wearing a dress I just want to be in forever to meet my future husband, who’s waiting for me at the altar. 

The church ceremony is the most important highlight of the entire wedding, because we want God at the centre of our marriage, and for Him to bless us at the start of our new life together."

Wedding preparations aside, the couple also prepped themselves emotionally and spiritually for their marriage, attending the Catholic Marriage Preparation Course. 

When asked about their wedding priorities, Cheryl said:  

"[Our priorities are] God. And our parents, who have loved us unconditionally, and continue to give us so much of their time and affection. The wedding is just as important to them as it is to us. "

The couple dressed up their bridal party in contrasting pastel colours: blue for the girls and pink for the boys. Well-played we'd say.

"My blush banquet gown that I wore for my first march-in is also from Vera Wang. Both my mum and I fell in love with it.

After talking to the Vera Wang team about our banquet theme, they actually customised it in the shade I wanted even though they’ve never done it before!

Thus, my gown is the only piece in that colour and fabric. It was such a privilege and they were so helping in sending me swatches via post to Singapore to get the right shade.

What’s even more amazing was that they made the gown for me even before the official launch of the collection.

I was so happy and honoured to wear this gown," said Cheryl.
