We helped Katherine & Matthew prepared their march – in slideshow for their wedding on Dec 9 & learned that they ‘re together since high schools ( 1988), but their passion didn’t reduced. They always try to give some surprises to each other.

First , Matthew ‘ did the  proposal in a "摩天輪" when they ‘re traveling in UK. I think no girl can reject the proposal at this moment.
Then, the March – in slideshow is not a common one, they included their bungy-jump video. They did the jump TOGETHER & it was so meaningful to celebrate their wedding.  This was not the end, they gave a big surprise to all  their guests that they had their wedding  dance suddenly in their banquet, no one knew about it, not even their bridesmaids and best-men.  This was one of the best dance I had ever seen. They must have practiced it for a very long time.

Finally, Katherine gave a big surprise to Matthew. She prepared a 15 min video herself & included all the friends & families of Matthew in it & said "happy birthday" to him (yes, Dec 9 is Matthew ‘ birthday as well).

Hi Katherine & Matthew, both of you ‘re wonderful and so were your friends & families, the atmosphere ‘re so good throughout the whole day. There ‘re so many moments that filled up all my memory cards (I shot over 30 G of RAW files) !!!!!!

I am not kidding, this ‘s one of the best First Dance I have ever seen
the best first dance

Let start the game. I can tell it is not easy this time.

As Matthew & all groomsmen ‘re working in police force, I think that ‘s OK for them. But I was totally exhausted and completely wet after that.

  3. Hi Katherine & Matthew,
    Thanks for the correction, I got confused of the church name.
    Happy to hear you love the photos. When I took the dance photo, I had a lot of pressure. When I saw your rehearsal earlier in banquet, I already knew that this was going to be a very special 1st dance.
    Usually, most of the wedding couples just have "small steps" during the dance, but, both of you ‘re so professional, and you used every single corner of the dance floor. No matter where I was located, I just found that you ‘re dancing and moving towards me very fast. Hope you enjoy the dance photos.
