Asian Celeb Weddings

With the Royal Wedding just days away, everyone seems to have marriage on the brain. It suddenly feels like EVERYONE I know is getting engaged/married/preggers, and I am just standing still - 23, single and lonely. But enough about me and how my mother thinks I'm going to die alone, weddings are happy for everyone, even the lonely bridesmaid! Here are some of my favorite wedding looks in the Asian Entertainment Realm:



Miriam Yeung and Real Ting secretly got married in Las Vegas and waited a few months to hold their ceremony in Hong Kong. Miriam's layered ruffle wedding gown was designed by Carlo Pignatelli. As for the traditional Chinese wedding dress, she went for a gold rather than the traditional red qi pao.
Christine Fan And Blackie Chen are sealing the deal after 11 years of courtship with a fancy wedding this May! Can't get over the sweet lace detail on Christine's dress and coordinating veil.


'Meteor Garden' star Barbie Hsu and millionaire Wang Xiao Fei held a private wedding ceremony last month on Hainan Island, China. Barbie's dress is very top heavy but the corsetted waist keeps it from being frumpy.


This year's best actress Carina Lau married previous best actor Tony Leung after 20 years of dating! I don't know if I could ever wait 20 years for a man, but with their busy lives it's somewhat understandable. The pair got married in Bhutan, bringing public awareness and tourism into the country. Carina wore a flower appliqued Vera Wang gown for the western style wedding and later changed into a Bhutanese style dress.








Daniel Wu and Lisa Selesner got married last spring in a forrest in South Africa! I love the simplicity and uniqueness of their wedding and Lisa's gown wasn't overly frou frou, very befitting of the setting.





Korean actor Jang Dong Gun married his sweetie Ko So Young (wearing Oscar De La Renta). I love her dress, the top part is kept simple while the bottom is adorned with large white flowers.



Actors Jeon Hye Jin and Lee Sun Kyun tied the knot last year. I love how the lace on her dress continues into a cape on the back, something different from the usual wedding gown style.



When Kelly Chen married her boyfriend of 13 years she did so in extravagance, appearing in a 10 meter long train with 999 peonies sewn on the dress. A gorgeous wedding dress but she probably needed like 20 bridesmaids to carry her train!




Kelly Lin marries boyfriend Chris Young in the Maldives. I really like the sweetheart neckline and the subtle one shoulder look.
Patty Hou got married in a Vera Wang gown. I'm a sucker for anything with a bow on it and that peach bow waistband on her dress had me sold on this dress!




I think everyone thinks about their wedding day at least once in their life. Don't know if I'll ever get married since keeping long term relationships are really hard for me. But just for the sake of this post I decided to search for the perfect wedding dress for myself...


If that day ever happens for me, this is what I would like to wear:

Vera Wang Frieda dress - strapless organza dress with a sweetheart neckline - $a bijillion dollars


Christian Louboutin Crystal shoes -$3,200, but look how those babies sparkle like a Twilight vampire!


But this is probably what I'd realistically wear:


-this ivory colored gown with a sweetheart neckline is listed as a bridesmaid dress but I think it would be perfect as a simple Spring/Summer wedding dress, because honestly who, other than the bride would wear white to a wedding!

Tom's Silver Glitter Shoes - $54 -still got the sparkle I want but 100 times more comfortable and affordable! Just better hope the groom isn't a giant!


So ladies, what would your ideal wedding gown look like?
