Hong Kong actors Terrance Lau and Cecilia Choi tied the knot in Karuizawa, Japan, marking the occasion with a simple, heartfelt celebration

Celebrity weddings usually wow us with their extravagance, but the wedding of Hong Kong actors Terrance Lau Chun-him and Cecilia Choi Sze-wan wowed us with its simplicity—and spoke volumes about who they are as a couple. The pair tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at Karuizawa Kogen Church in Japan, a venue that reflects the groundedness that has defined their five-year relationship. Unlike the over-the-top celebrity weddings that have dominated headlines in recent years, Lau and Choi’s celebration was refreshingly understated.

The Karuizawa Kogen Church, nestled in a picturesque forest setting, provided a backdrop that was both beautiful and remarkably real. The natural surroundings—towering trees and dappled sunlight—created an atmosphere of quiet reverence. This wasn’t a wedding designed to impress social media; it was a ceremony crafted for the couple and their closest loved ones.

The simplicity extended to every detail. Choi’s wedding gown was elegant in its restraint—a classic white dress without any noticeable embellishment. She carried a bouquet of fresh flowers as she and Lau posed for photographs outside the church. The floral arrangements seen in the photos echoed this philosophy: tasteful, organic and letting nature speak for itself.

What makes this wedding feel so refreshing is the sense of genuine joy that emanates from each photo. In the vintage-style wedding photos they shared with fans, both actors radiated the kind of happiness that can’t be manufactured or staged.

“Thank you, God, for loving us. We are married,” the couple announced in a joint statement on Instagram—words as simple and sincere as the celebration itself. Congrats to both of them on this journey.
