From illustrated decorations to paper tree backdrops, this couple’s celebration was a blend of quirky and elegant elements. By Felicia Tan & Michelle Lee

Having met in London when they were medical students, Eileen Lew and Benjamin Seah decided to throw an Alice-In-Wonderland-cum-masquerade in London bash for their reception. “Our friends dressed in life-sized minion costumes a la Despicable Me and handed out kacang puteh and popcorn. We also had a booth manned by the experts from The Make Up Room,who transformed guests beautifully to fit our theme, and that included adding whimsical Alice In Wonderland-like headpieces.”
