Wedding of Dennis & Sonia
Date December  6th -2009
Venue – Garden  Ceremony
Dinner venue – One world Hotel.
Wedding planner – Stephen foong

Specially for the both of u,-

"On such a big day of our life, it was Stephen Foong that made the BIG day smooth sailing. I can’t say that we weren’t stressed out prior to that but I can imagine how much worst it could have been if it wasn’t for Stephen. It was literally a No worries, No hassles, and No stress day for us. We just pointed to Stephen whenever anyone asked us anything.

We engaged Stephen Foong because he did such a great job on my sister’s wedding 4 years ago and when I called him, he hadn’t forgotten who they were; which was pretty amazing with the number of wedding he had planned.  It was great working with him as he was very professional and he always took it upon himself to ensure we were on the right track. He was also open to working with whomever we wanted to and made things easier by coordinating everything for us.  Throughout the day, he made impromptu changes when necessary (mostly requested by me) and made it all happen.



Stephen, thank you for putting up with my crazy bridal party and even though everyone kena sounding from you for doing all sorts of nonsense, WE ALL had a lot of fun!

p/s – I’ll see you in many more weddings to come.

xoxo
Dennis & Sonia"

Now u are are 2 persons but there is only one life before U
May beauty surround u both in this journey ahead and through all the years
May Happinese be your companion and your days together be good and long upon the earth.

As Yee chuan and wai ying stand before all of us-
-Treat yourselves and each other with respect and remind
Yourselves often what brought u together,

Gave the highest priority to TENDERNESS
/ GENTLENESS and KINDNESS.

When frustration and difficulty and fear assail your\
Relationship - as they threaten all relationship
At one time or another - REMEMBER to focus on
What is right between u and not only
the part which seems wrong.
In this way U both can ride out the storms when clouds
Hide the face of the sun in your lives.
Remember that even when u lose sight
of it for a moment- the sun is still there .And if each
of you takes responsibility for the Quality of your
life together , it will be marked by abundance and
Love.

“Love does not consist of just gazing at each other
But in looking together in the same direction “
“Truelove stories never have endings.”
Without Love the world itself would not survive.

Congratulations and thank U both for giving me the authority
To play such an active role in your Blessing ceremony.”

" once in  awhile right in the middle of an ordinary life
Love gives us a fairly  tale.

We found stephen foong thru the website .We search the web and his name was the first to pop -up. My girl friend came along and we met him up - just in getting to know who he is and to see what he can do for us.

we were shock by his Knowledged and his widescope of contacts and he speaks with such authority that we know for sure he is the person whom we are looking for.

He took us to see the registra of marriaged and we can tell that he has great ties with them and  He could cut corneas and get us in and meet the  senior registra and lay down all the requirements that we hope  to achieved. He took us to see the venue that he thinks will be suitable to our dream blessing ceremony. We love the place.


(ROYAL CHULAN with a Garden out looked. he transformed it with decorations and throw in suggestion making sure that we were in the same "tune'

as the day draws closer he never fail to update us, we really trust him and we still have our little "doubts:
that  morning he was in the Hotel at 7.00am  as he promised
and  dressing up the whole venue within 2hours. and getting us the right music with a short period time as i wanted it so badly and also abel to add on whatever i desire to enhence the surroundings,

He was our Mc and he did it so well that all my Guest gave him due respect of just  keeping silence for that half an hour and he lead us thru with such romantic  - love poems / and  beautiful vows and  it all run so smoothly.
The food was good / the band music was perfect / the  decoration was frantastic and everything was  good at the right place.

It was a life one -time experience to go thru such magical moment and esp. to be able to share with our family and close friends

THANK U  - STEPHEN  u have given us  your best, - U live up to your name!

Dearest Stephen,

I remember the first time we called Stephen to be our wedding planner and he was so delightful and happy to agree with it. It was really a privilege for STEPHEN FOONG to be our wedding planner because Stephen is really, really a busy man! We must say that Stephen is very precise and sharp in his profession. He knows about wedding in and out.  Stephen is bubbly and funny and fun to be around with, not  forgetting his fashion sense. I LURVE them to bits... :)

Thing are not to be perfect , although there are hiccups here and there along the preparation and on the actual wedding day, but everything went on time and as schedule. We enjoyed every moment of our wedding because we have Stephen to be here for us.

We were shocked and surprise that you sang us a song on our wedding day. Thank you! thank you!  It was really sweet of you to do so,we didnt know u can sing well, it was lovely!

We really appreciate what you have done and we would like to say again and again a big THANK YOU.

A little poem dedicated to you Stephen: -

Thank you for the good times,
The days you filled with pleasure.
Thank you for fond memories,
And for feelings I'll always treasure.

Cheers,
Cindy & Alan

Groom- Bryan
BRIDE -Jacqueline


We are indeed proud to say that we have rightly engaged Stephen Foong to be our notable Wedding Planner. Stephen being well known in the industry for his vast knowledge and experience in nuptial customs, traditions and the entire course of wedding planning, has not only lived up to our expectations of our 'ideal wedding' but he had certainly went beyond and above what we expected of our lil' wedding to be.


Stephen being so popularly recognised for his collection of elaborated jade jewelleries, swarovski-bling accessories, dressing and his fashionable custom-made Thomas Chan shoes, we had to engage him even a year in advance before our wedding date!

Stephen is indeed very selective of his clients. In fact, he had several clients whose weddings were all around the same good date as ours, but we are most glad that he had chosen none other than us.

With his skills, flair and manner of planning our wedding, we are indeed very happy and satisfied. Most importantly, what he speaks, is exactly what he executed so very well! We must say that though Stephen's services maybe a little steep, but he had proven to deliver our dream wedding so well!

All our guests from near and far, who came to grace our wedding were impressed. It left both our parents and parents-in-laws undoubtedly pleased. Our wedding was done so tastefully especially our reception at Hilton Kuala Lumpur, specially themed "Mid-Autumn Festival" which was in conjunction of the actual festival celebrated based on the chinese calendar. His services are worth the every penny spent. His taste for decorations, is indeed commendable!

Stephen, thank you very much again for this memorable wedding of ours.

Hi Stephen,

It would be such a disaster if I were to plan the wedding by myself especially when my wife and I are abroad. Thanks for guiding us from day one and ensuring that the ceremony was smooth as a baby's bottom.




My parents have received numerous accolades from friends and relatives on how well the function was organized. I've even showed some photos of the event to my relatives in China and they too were fascinated. My thanks to you also for bringing in Michelle as the make-up artist as she really has done a marvelous job.



I wish you well for your future assignments and do keep up your energy.

Kind regards,

Once again, thank you for being a recognised player in our Wedding ceremony.............. !!

Stephen Foong is no longer a foreign name amongst the wedding industry circle. Even if one does not know him by name, one will still be able to identify and describe him as the wedding planner that adorns himself with a whole lot of 'bling' and outrages outfits! Perhaps for some brides, this may seem overwhelming, but for me, it was precisely the reason why I was certain that I wanted to appoint Stephen Foong as my wedding planner when I got engaged in June 2008. While Kuala Lumpur has seen many reputable wedding planners come and go, Stephen has still been able to set himself apart from the rest because he dares to be different, without apologies -- And that for me, is truly an essential ingredient to success!

Many have sung high praises for Stephen Foong, but it was only during my husband Irwin and my wedding, that he truly proved himself the capable wedding planner that he is. Drawing from his vast experience of people handling and coordination, he not only was able to cement all the nitty-gritties of our wedding day together and execute them seamlessly; but also thoroughly enjoy himself while on the job! Our back-to-back packed schedule and 900 guest list at the dinner reception did not dampen Stephen's enthusiasm one bit; in fact we reckon he enjoyed himself just as much as we did!!!

Thank you Stephen for playing such an integral role in making our wedding a memorable one! May you continue to bless the lives of many more couples.

God Bless!

Stephen,
Just a short note from Larisa and I to thank you for the superb service that you and your team provided in arranging and planning for our wedding that was held on 20th June 2009 at the Binjai Residency.

Your ability to meet our every request was second to none and we both thoroughly appreciated the end results that you provided. Many of the guests commented on how professionally everything went and that was purely down to you and your team.



The food was 5 star and Alan Yap is to be highly commended - a number of my expatriate friends now have his contact details and are planning to use him in the future.
The video and photography personnel were attentive without being intrusive, a quality that only comes with experience.

Finally the music and band were outstanding, a real pleasure to have live music played by such quality musicians.

We would absolutely recommend each and every one of you to anyone who is interested in using your services in the future.


All the very best and please pass on our thanks to everyone who was involved in the planning as well as the execution of our "Big Day"

Perfectionist.  Bold.  Entertaining.

These 3 words best describe Stephen Foong. He is a perfectionist in that he sincerely wants to make things right 100% each time. Bold in that he is unafraid to get the best possible outcome especially in those less-than-perfect situations.  And entertaining in that he is as much entertainment for those who interact with him or those who just observe him going about in his work.

We must say that it was my mom and aunty Bee Yeow who suggested that we engage Stephen Foong as our wedding planner. Now, being the couple that prefers to be hands-on on something as big as our wedding, we had our initial hesitations. But it turned out to be the best decisions we have ever made. From the first time we met him, he made us laugh non-stop with his unique style, humour and personality.  We quickly realized that it is important to not just have that someone who will coordinate the wedding from start to finish but someone who is able to create and liven up the wedding, and is able to make all our families and friends roll in joy and laughter, and to simply have a really great time!

Being the eldest to get married in both our families, we set out knowing that we wanted to follow the customary Chinese tradition of ‘kor tai lai’ and ‘seong tau’ ceremonies. Stephen had the in-depth knowledge of what was required to be done to ensure that we did not miss out anything. He was at both our houses to assist and to advise both families of the Chinese ways and customs throughout the ceremony. We are also extremely pleased that he took the lead during our food tasting - making sure that the food, presentation and all the finer details were ironed out. He certainly had great clout over the banquet manager, kitchen staffs, chef and all other service providers, which made it all very good, especially when it comes to more difficult matters.

On our wedding day, Stephen displayed the very best of his skills. He was instrumental in getting everyone together, coordinated the timing, and making sure that everything runs perfectly.  He was also our ‘tai kam loh’ and his repeated mentioning of auspicious Chinese sayings made both our families extremely pleased and added to the joyous atmosphere! During the dinner, he was our chief entertainer and emcee & he kept our crowd amused with his brand of witty humour and ever-changing attire. He also surprised everyone by belting out a song and even dancing in front of our crowd!

Undoubtedly, Stephen is no ordinary wedding planner. He is a super coordinator, adviser, ‘tai kam loh’, entertainer, fashionista, emcee, singer, and a reliable friend.

Stephen, our heartfelt thanks to you in making our wedding day so truly memorable! It was certainly a fun-filled wedding showered with abundance of joy, laughter and happiness! We could not have done it without your perfectionist nature, bold disposition and entertaining style.

Once again, thank you.

Cheers,
Roy & Stephanie Siew

Thanks for all your contribution and help with our wedding last November.

All the best and Regards

Hi Stephen,

Thanks so much for your guidance and assistance throughout the wedding planning journey. You are absolutely awesome! We have been receiving favourable feedback and compliments from our family and guests who attended the wedding.

The morning session was very fun and yet meaningful to all of us at home. The blessing ceremony was indeed a pleasant surprise to us. The function hall was beautifully decorated. I always emphasise on the romantic feeling that I wanted to experience during the signing ceremony. You made it! Likewise, I love the simple and yet tastefully

decorated grand ballroom for the wedding reception. It was simply gorgeous. It was exactly what I wanted. Our guests enjoyed themselves very much, not only about the food and services provided by The Westin but YOU and the songs played by the band. Last but not least, both bouquets of flowers were exceptional.

Special thanks to you for making our special day such a wonderful and memorable one! I am very grateful to have you as my wedding planner. Now that the wedding is over and I have you as my friend! Thank-you Stephen!

Love,

Wedding date  - may—26th
Groom  Kevin tan /
Bride- Joereen  koek.

Venue – Sime Derby   Ball-room.

Having fixed the date ! but not the Venue  can be a  very – stressful and difficult  task. Not  knowing  which is the most   suitable  and easy access--  Venue for  all the Guest. Coming from all over the  city . 

A Venue that can be  be  versatile and  accommodative to our personal
Style / and  at the same time of elegance and sophistication,  it has to come with
High  ceilings  and  a pillar –free  hall.
At such  we  need    a resourceful  person who could suggest  and  with years of experience can  only be able to direct us  towards our  dream wedding and requirements. And  we are  glad to have  found  STEPHEN  FOONG as our wedding planner   In our  first encounter – Stephen  has given us  the assurance that  will provide every aspect in accordance  to our  preference  and  expectations.
The overall  ambiance  will need to  reflect  our   wedding style. We wanted something  oriental   for  the  wedding  theme, -

Lots of details  came together  in staging  a wedding  - we also required a church
Blessing  followed by  a  600  seated  formal dinner the next day
We finally identify   Sime Derby  ball-room as our   Venue.
Stephen   influence and   connections with  the  staff of  Sime Derby have  been  remarkable  and   able to enforce  many  “tough “ decisions that  the  staff have to honour  on  our  requirement.
He initiated  the food  tasting  with lots of  constructive  remarks and  the flow of the  menu  to match the  night  programme   so that  it will run smooth /assuring the food to be warm  .
We set down to do the costing and  his  recommendation is  very   very  practical
He  helps to  source most of  everything  and we wanted   a real  5 tier wedding cake 
He came for the church  rehearsal – just to assure that  everything is  in “tune ”

After months of  Planning – the day finally came.
We are all very excited  to see him and his team of  workers,
Everything went on  well  -just as what was plan.
He also  handle the  tea- ceremony  for both  sides of the family.
His timing and his   co-ordination  is  up to  top  condition
He  knows  exactly  what comes next  and what follow next on the dot.

Looking back  are  warm and  nice  fond memories  - Our  attendance for the morning ceremony was over  flow – And Stephen  will reach out to make everyone feels at home and to secure that  there is enough food for everyone,  that turns   up.
A section  was   block out for the  older folks to be able to  sit and dine in comfort
And   everyone  do stay back for  the reception and we also managed to take  lots of pictures with our   Guest ,
It was  really  stress – free cos we  know we have  Stephen around to  take care of the rest of the  details.
Stephen   have  never complaint  that  the  work is over –load .His  commitment and  dedication  requires me to salute  to such passions  of his  at all times. 

It was a good suggestion to  have the  wedding dinner the following day.
To run back and forth for two   sides family  tea-ceremony    is  no joke  at all  and to be able to spent Quality  time for both sides is  what most couple  desire   We are able to rest  and  prepare our-selves   for the next day  with   a   fresh “looked” and not been over –tired.

The following  day – Stephen was  already in  the  Ball-room of Sime Derby tying up  and  putting all everything  in order – the decorations / the set –up the   testing of Projectors  / the    floor plan according to plan   / the  backdrop / the  band  set up and also we have tailor  made for all  Guest  a bottle of  Honey  jar  as  Favours !
He see thru all  of it.


Stephen  we couldn’t thank u enough for all that  u have done for us.
You have now become our family  friend and we know for sure when my
Younger  brother   gets married  - we  want u to  handle it  all from start to finished.
We believed u  will continued to bring   happiness and  help  every wedding couple to  have  a  memorable  wedding  for a life-time.

God  Bless  !
Kevin  and  Joereen
