David & Rue // Active Garden, Garden by the Bay + Floral Fantasy

Couples in Singapore who wish to formalize their marriage have an additional option for the venue. Apart from the current location at the Registry of Civil and Muslim Marriages on 7 Canning Rise, the two Registries will now also conduct marriage ceremonies in the versatile Ficus Room situated within the Family Zone's Active Garden, Garden by the Bay.

David and Rue told me that they were lucky to get this venue to use for an hour. Their initial plan was to have their marriage solemnized at 7 Canning Rise. Since they got this new venue, they planned for a simple Christian-style wedding ceremony over there instead. Early in the morning, we met each other at the Garden by the Bay drop-off point area. There came a buggy car nicely decorated with flowers, especially for the wedding couple. The ride to the venue takes around 5mins and it was extremely enjoyable! The venue is very spacious and could comfortably fit around 30pax. Their wedding solemnisation run down is worship, preaching from their Pastor, ring and vows exchange, and signing of the marriage certificate. After that, we walk to Floral Fantasy for their couple shoot.

It was really a good initiative from the government to have another location options for couples to formalize their marriage. Garden by the bay was an excellent choice!
