The table setting repeated the color motif of blue and
white. The six- course dinner at the Mandarin featured pan-fried Chilean seabass
and New Zealand prime rib, with passion fruit sherbet served between the two
main courses to clean the palate, and ending with a mango mascarpone cheese
parfait for dessert.
The wedding cake was sliced at around 9:30 pm, after the
lavish banquet. Before the festivities came to an end, the newly married couple
made as surprise announcement: they were going to be parents in five months'
time!
