Francis and Melissa’s wedding was a heartfelt celebration of love, faith, and resilience. Set across two iconic venues in Singapore—the Church of St. Ignatius and the Ritz-Carlton Millenia—their special day beautifully reflected their journey as a couple, from meeting at church to enduring the challenges of long-distance. With an intimate blend of solemnity, joy, and elegance, their wedding was a testament to the enduring power of love and shared devotion.
A Day to Cherish
Francis and Melissa’s love story began at the very church where they exchanged vows, making the Church of St. Ignatius a deeply meaningful choice for their ceremony. Surrounded by 500 guests comprising friends, family, and their church community, the couple honored their faith through a solemn and heartfelt ceremony that brought tears of joy to many. Melissa’s stunning church gown by Truly Enamored and Francis’s dapper suit by Jesse and Son added timeless elegance to the sacred setting.
Following the ceremony, the celebration moved to the Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore, where 400 guests gathered for a grand dinner reception. Melissa dazzled in her evening gown by Blessed Brides, and the evening featured exquisite florals by Fleurapy, CC Lee, and Heart Works, creating a lush and romantic ambiance that set the stage for heartfelt speeches, laughter, and even live abstract painting by Art by Inah Nepomuceno.
The couple’s love for music shone through with a moving piano and violin duet by David and Eshan, while Bridal POV captured vibrant moments for social media. Each detail was seamlessly orchestrated by Rose & Revel, ensuring a celebration that felt both intimate and grand.
