From The Straits Times    |

You probably know her as @ohhdivine on Instagram (she’s a reinsurance broker by day) while he has a career in sales. The pair met in university while on an overseas community service trip to Cebu. (See also: How 10 married couples met!)

“He had such a serious and quiet disposition (laughs)! I was a little hesitant about approaching him,” the bubbly SiPei shared as we prepped her for the shoot. They got engaged last year with a romantic proposal in Bali. She tells us about her upcoming nuptials, while showing off the latest bridal looks from Singapore bridal boutiques with her fiance Pierre Peh at the chic Lloyd’s Inn boutique hotel.

 

Embroidered organza A-line gown with floral appliques and slit skirt, SILHOUETTE THE ATELIER. Earrings and ring (worn throughout), SiPei’s own.

“We are thinking of a romantic theme that will go perfectly with the colonial architecture of our wedding venue Raffles Hotel – soft hues, pastel colours, calligraphy and florals.”


 

Duchess satin V-neck gown with cathedral train, SILHOUETTE THE ATELIER. 

 


“I am planning to have four gowns, each with a different look. My favourite styles are the A-line, the trumpet and the column or sheath. Pierre will be in a tux, as well as have other bespoke suits made.”

“Don’t rush the process. Take your time to figure out what you and your partner like! We found Instagram and Pinterest to be great starting points for inspiration. You probably can’t have everything, so do prioritise what’s most important to the both of you.”
