For a bunch of ladies more used to straightening out wedding trains and ensuring that wine glasses were never empty, hearing that we were going to be styling a farmers market was a breath of fresh air! We immediately started coming up with ideas; we knew for definite we wanted to channel a rustic and country atmosphere right in the city. We had a great location; it was a nice long stretch of road at Agile Properties Mont Kiara. All we had to do [...] Read more

An entrée is the appetizer of a multi-course meal, served at the beginning or before the main dish. So, it is only apt that for foodies, Shawn, restauranteur at The Gerai Food Loft, and Sue Ann, lover of food at The Gerai, that their romantic and heartfelt union is only the entrée to exploring all the flavours and delicacies that life has to offer. And it was a palette (we mean, wedding) to remember, paving the way for a stunning main dish. If [...] Read more

Consciously recognizing the end of a passing year and welcoming a new one is a ritual that we’ve put to practice somewhere along the way since we turned 18 years old. Six years ago, we were both standing at a crossroad thinking about our future, our direction in life and the choices we had to make and/or sacrifice. We took the step forward, made a phone call, sat over tea and decided on Moments. Looking back, we could never have thanked God for [...] Read more

Sixty is a great deal and the pleasures of age depends very much on what constitutes the threads of our lives and how they are woven together. Time will never come (I can assure you that!) when women choose to delight in weak knees, backaches, eye bags, wrinkles or a scalp filled with grey hair. But one thing I’m certain of, the time will come, which I’d like to call it the “Golden Years”, when they see these blemishes as a pretty price to pay [...] Read more

Very much inspired by the era of hippies communal and a spritz of the pin-up, dapper styled clad men and women, this styled shoot was very much an actual birthday surprise for two special friends who wanted to reminisce their good times of the 1969 once again. With the 60s hit records blasting throughout the night, head bob-worthy to the groove of the beats, the spread of delectable nibbles alongside vintage collectibles and props in psychedelic [...] Read more

The Peranakan; amongst Malaysia’s most underrated and fading traditions. We’ve been blessed with an extremely amazing opportunity to collaborate with The Wedding Scoop in creating a styled shoot that poses an amazing window of opportunity to introduce its aesthetic culture - for all to indulge in the nitty gritty details and beauty of how the “Nyonya and Baba” can be infused into our modern celebrations and reflect highly on it’s rich tradition.

Dear Ryan, When you were a bump in my tum, I hope you remember the lullabies each night to you I hummed. For nine months I felt your beautiful heartbeat next to mine; and every single day, it kept me going and gave me a reason to shine. Oh how we have waited for the longest time, and they’re right when they say this feeling cannot be fathomed into a rhyme. If only you could feel the bursting joy knowing you will soon be ours; then the months of [...] Read more

Christmas - the most wonderful time of the year! And possible, the BUSIEST as well! For most; there’s the trees awaiting to be decorated, gifts to be wrapped, ingredients drowning the counter tops to cook up a storm, parties to attend and the list goes on. For us here at Moments and possible many others who share the same sentiments as we do in the wedding industry, it is literally like being in a fisherman’s boat with scarce supplies, stuck in [...] Read more

I randomly burst into tears (only a few drops) rambling about how my little man is growing up sooo very fast. My husband thinks I’m going sadistically nuts. He keeps reminding me that he is only 2! Sometimes (only sometimes), I think that too. BUT!!! 2 is an awesomely big number in my life. How did he get so tall & so independent? Don’t get me wrong, I am not sad (just a little bit maybe...). But I am overjoyed that he is a part of us. He is [...] Read more

I used to think a wedding was a simple affair. Boy and girl meet, he buys a ring, she buys a dress, they said “I do”. I was wrong. That’s getting married. A wedding is an entirely different proposition. I know, I’ve just been through one. Not my own, but my daughter, Annie. Your fathers will understand. You have a little girl. An adorable little girl who looks up to you and adores you in a way you could never imagined. I remember how her little [...] Read more
