With a hashtag like #despangieto, a play on the popular 2017 Latin hit Despacito, the wedding of Angelina Tan and Desmond Ngiam was bound to be filled with fun and heart‑warming moments, and lots of laughter. The couple had meticulously planned for the joyous celebration, which took place at The St Regis Singapore last September, so it was no surprise that there was nary a quiet moment that evening. Guests took photos with colourful props that showed Angelina and Desmond’s wicked sense of humour, before they were tickled by their speeches, which were peppered with witty anecdotes of their parents and siblings. To cap off the evening, the newly‑weds wowed everyone with a flawless dance performance, despite Desmond’s insistence that he was an amateur on the dancefloor.
