Our September 2014 cover stars, Benjamin Yong and Elizabeth Lee, finally became Mr and Mrs Big in a beautiful carnival-themed wedding reception that reflected their beliefs and personalities. Held at Chin Woo Stadium, KL, the vintage stadium was converted into a funhouse in lieu of a conventional sit-down dinner. Buoyed by champagne, all the guests were encouraged to let their hair down and have fun. Needless to say, most of society’s creme de la creme were spotted at the fabulous extravaganza including Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir, Marion Caunter, Chen Tien Yue and Dr Andrea Lim. From feasting on a whole tuna air-flown from Japan that required the hands of three chefs to riding on the carousel, every adult in the room allowed their inner child to emerge as they partied the evening away.
