WHERE can you find an instant and picture-perfect setting for a wedding?

For Ms Evonne Lim Meng Huang, 25, and Mr Chin Nyuk Khin, 27, the Singapore Garden Festival provides the ideal backdrop.

The couple had their wedding solemnised amidst the lush luxuriant gardens at Garden Festival at the Suntec Convention Centre earlier on Wednesday, attended by over 50 friends and relatives.

For their wedding photos, they were spoilt for choice, given the stunning range of award-winning gardens and floral displays they could choose from over two sprawling floors.

They took one infront of the Fantasy Garden display, 'Rose of Glendalough', designed by American designer John Cullen, who won a Gold Award for his creation.

Nestled in this lovely garden is a replica of a chapel, where the landscape designer proposed to his wife.

The eight-day garden festival has been drawing crowds since it opened to the public last Friday. More than 200,000 people have visited the event so far.

The Singapore Garden Festival is open till this Friday.
