It all first started when the two of them get acquainted with each other through Facebook, and the first time the two of them met was when Ryan was heading down the escalator, while Michelle was heading up.
After 7 years of dating, Ryan brought Michelle to a dinner, in which she thought it was a regular dinner and jokingly asked for a ring. Little did she know that Ryan had it all planned out and caught her off guard by handing out the ring and proposed to her.
Doing the planning for the wedding was the hardest part. The key is to keep on informing each other and the parents of both sides. Vendor scouting was also a challenge for them, because it was not easy for them to find the vendors that matches with what exactly that they wanted.
Simple and romantic wedding concept always works. Ryan and Michelle went for the classic white concept for their wedding, for it is a sacred matrimony. As for the building decoration, they went for the rustic theme. Initially, they wanted to have their wedding to be celebrated outdoors. However, the concern of rain and getting sweaty crossed their mind caused them to switch to indoor, but they didn’t want to entirely abandon the idea of outdoor wedding, so they ended up with indoor wedding with outdoor nuance.
The wedding dress is definitely a crucial part of the wedding, since it is only worn once in a lifetime. The search for the wedding dress had even reached Jakarta, but they had yet to find the right one. They then tried going to the wedding dress designer in Semarang, even though they were skeptical at first. In the end, Michelle gathered all her guts to meet with Bramanta Wijaya, and it turned out that the designer is a very nice person. Thanks to the great designer, she loves herself more than ever.
The most memorable moment for them was when they walked into the church together, as that was their wish to do so, and when they vowed on each other. We wish Ryan & Michelle a wonderful life together!
