Came across this very talented Malaysian artist’s blog by Shirley drawing the cutest and realistic illustration for couples featuring their love story, courtship and proposal!
How adorable to have it done in a comic style! It can be use for invitation card or even in your Save-The-Date!
I’ve always been a fan of 3-D illustration and comic drawings; another good recommendation for this is Stefine from Singapore. I love their creative way of bringing story to live! I also had our courtship and funny proposal in an animation video to be presented during our wedding dinner. All our guests get to see how our courtship evolves and finally tying the knot! It was also a very funny video that makes everyone laughs to tears!
Our love story was also featured Stefine’s ad in a bridal magazine! ;)
Kuala Lumpur or better known in short as KL, was one of my husband favourite city skyline to watch. He adores the Petronas Twin Towers and the beautiful people there.
10 years ago, he has never heard of KL and was first amazed by the beautiful architecture of Petronas Twin Towers in the movie “ENTRAPMENT” by Catherine Zeta Jones.
Well, he love more than the city itself, and married me – a KL born girl :)
Nothing is more lovely than the skyline from where you came from, reminding you so much of your roots, meeting your the other half … and falling in love, of course!
This theme was created for a couple who coincidentally matches the city name KL and the city they came from!
If you are also interested in a city skyline theme and have a story to tell, do drop me a mail and share it with me! :)
Less than a month to the 2010 New Year’s countdown!
Year end is all about celebration and parties, this new design of Noir Celebration are ideal for weddings and also black tie dinner.
This Noir Celebration card used imported designer flocked paper that has an exclusive feel when touched. A strand of pearls is also decorated on top of the matching black satin ribbon on the card.
A pair of love birds adorning “Chin & Crystal” monogram names, with one of the carrying a key that released a bird from the bird cage. Both birds join together in freedom and happily together! :)
A simple Love Story for this fairytale collection.
The colour theme that seems very popular among wedding couples nowadays is “red and black” colour combination. Red is the colour for any happiness event and more so in weddings, especially with Chinese culture! This colour also pleased our older generation family members, most importantly our parents! So red all the way ……!!!!!!
A Rosy Affair is a transformation from Scarlet Rose collection into a more drama and bold approach when the rose is printed in BLACK on Red card. Inside invitation is printed as an insert in silver shimmer paper.
A simple monogram is design for the couple Chin and Crystal, with the emphasis on character “C” to combine both their names together!
Just to add some sparkle for Crystal’s name, the centre of the rose bud is adorned with a Swarovski crystal!
Scarlet Rose design was revamped from the initial ideas proposed for Jiawei and Chu Yen’s wedding. However Chu Yen prefer motifs rather than roses, and this design was left aside.
I personally love the rose in red and a sparkling Swarovski crystal buckle always adds an extra classiness into any cards! The hems in dark maroon by the side of the ribbon are just so beautiful! I found this ribbon from a craft store that sells very unique ribbons, and it is pretty costly too! Of course, we can always replace other similar materials or quality to fit our wallet ;) Who says we can’t have both worlds?!
Guests attending a Chinese wedding will usually give out ‘ang pow’ also known as red packets containing monetary gifts as blessing and well wishes to the newly wed couple.
Made Viv Love created a special ‘ang pow’ box for Jiawei & Chu Yen’s wedding by using elements from their ballroom and theme colours; red and black. Red roses will be use for their ballroom deco and also the tables centre piece.
This is how their wedding reception ballroom looks like:
To design a thematic ‘ang pow’ box to match their ballroom deco and reception table; I’ve sourced some beautiful full bloom red roses during on my recent trip to Bangkok. They have the best selection of artificial flowers and I found these roses matches with the picture above so perfectly! :)
I’ve also added a light touch of black lace around the lid of the box giving it a much more elegant glamour. The box is wrapped with quilted light shimmer gold paper. Top of the lid also has a wide opening for the red packets to be drop in.
Isn’t it a lovely piece when this Red Red Roses ‘Ang Pow’ Box will be place at the reception table for their guests to insert their red packets! :)
The measurement of this box size is 8’ (height) x 10’ (width) x 8 1/2’ (depth). The design and creation of this ‘ang pow’ box are uniquely one piece only and no replica or same design can be reproduce due to items are handmade.
Made Viv Love was highlighted in Blissful Brides magazine July-December 2009 issue! Check it out here :)
When it comes to choices of songs for wedding, there is always an old time favourite which is “Canon In D” by Pachelbel.
Jon did a marvellous songs combination for Pachelbel meets U2. If you have not heard of it, check this video below …
And then we have some really beautiful love songs from time to time that we have grown up listening, boy bands that sang romantic ballads … songs that reminds us of our first puppy love, songs that we wished a guy will play for us with his guitar … and we dream for that perfect song that someday when we walk down the aisle, that ‘one song’ will be played.
Another song that I’ve came across was compiled by Jon Schmidt - Love Story Meets Viva la Vida. Yes! It is a mix of both songs by Taylor Swift and Cold Play. And it turns out beautifully!! Jon is really talented and I would like to share his beautiful masterpiece here with you.
Perhaps asking your live band to play this song for your grand entrance march in and choreograph a dance with your bridal party?!! Just some random thoughts! ;)

A simple invitation card design for a Jo and Nigel’s small ROM ceremony at their residence @ Marina Sail, Singapore . Their theme for this event is lilac / lavender. Something softer and more romantic for an intimate event with their close family and friends especially who can’t make it to their wedding in Sabah.
Here is what I’ve design for them :)
