geoffrey samuel's wedding




attended geoffrey samuel and michelle tan's church wedding at touch centre auditorium at marine parade central at 2.20 p.m. we were expected to be seated by 1.45 p.m. but because of parking problem, even the groom's father was late. he took nearly half an hour to park his car at the nearby multi-storey car-park.

grace, whom i have not seen or met for nearly a decade, was there with her hubby and 2-year old son. jeremy, who is a professional actor, was also there. he had returned to s'pore from uk on friday. victor went to the airport to pick him. jason and his family were also there to witness the holy matrimony.

later in the evening, we were at teochew city seafood restaurant at centrepoint for the chinese dinner. for a chinese wedding dinner, it was considered quite 'fast' because the first dish was served at 8.30 p.m., an hour after the stated time on the invitation card. together with emily and her husband vincent, jason and his family, we filled up table 6.

emily and vincent also have two daughters in melbourne. they have completed their studies and started working there. they work and live in the city. the elder girl esther is a permanent resident of australia.

caroline, ivy's rgs school and classmate, was at the dinner with her husband. she is a cousin of michelle, the bride.
