Celebrate Love with Poh Kong Year End Festive Collection and Clothes Buffet

Have you ever been to a jewelry showcasing? I have. Quite recently in fact. Back in November I was honoured by Poh Kong and was given the privilege to be the selected few who were given a chance to witness the unveiling of their latest collection.

The showcasing of their latest collection brought tears to my eyes because the showcasing was themed heavily around Oriental wedding where they featured a pair of Chinese bride and groom wearing Poh Kong Happy Love Collection.

There was a storyline during the showcasing. The couple were wearing jewelries that are wedding ‘gifts’ from their new family by marriage and all the jewelry pieces each have symbolic meaning; wishing them eternal marital bliss and all the good things for their marriage.

We were also shown the TVC for that collection.

Seeing that TVC was the last straw. It made me tearful, and wishful. Why, you ask me? Well, let me tell you a story. A real life story. MY story. A story that I never divulged to anyone all these while throughout my marriage years because I thought nobody would believe me and it sound rather silly.

My husband and I were college sweetheart. He was my college senior and we fell in love with each other pretty hard. I was 17 and he was 19 when we first met. Being young, no matter how civil our respective parents tries to be in front of us when we told them we are in love and would love to spend the rest of our lives together, they disapprove our relationship and deep down, we know that they don’t take us seriously and both sides of the family were hoping that we would soon break up and goes separate ways.

Young blooded and desperately in love, we did something that neither side of the family thought we dared to do. We eloped. Yes. My husband and I got married without the presence of both sides of our family members. Our marriage was very intimate and in the privacy of the religious registrar office in our neighboring country with only a few friends as witness who were sworn to secrecy about our marriage. There was no reception or feast to celebrate our love. There were no flowers, no wedding dresses or tuxedo. There was nothing and yet it meant so much to us.

To me, nothing else matters, after all our marriage is still legal in the eyes of religion and laws. We did re-register our marriage in Malaysia despite of the long winded process. Nobody in the family actually knew that we were married. And when I got pregnant, nobody in the family knew too. I was pretty wary and decided not to tell. In fact, nobody in the family knew about my son’s existence until he was 8 years old when my husband and I were finally tired of hiding and decided to let things out in the open. My husband and I were determined to spend the rest of our lives together and despite of our respective parents belief that we wouldn’t last, we made it pass a decade against all odds.

Marriage is never easy. What more there’s a child in the picture. Even more so when you eloped and nobody knew about it and only have each other and everything was all about trial and error and figuring things out together.

Our marriage was is easy but we love each other enough to make things work and I have no regrets. If I could turn back time, I would still make the same decision to elope and would still want the family life that I have now. If anyone ever told me that this was all a mistake, then I would tell them that this is my most favourite mistake of all.

But then again, deep down, I’m still a woman and there is a girl in me that wanted to properly celebrate my wedding. I never brought this up to my husband as we are already married for so many years and he has given me such happiness that I could ask no more, but sometimes whenever I attended people’s wedding or fashion or jewelry showcasing, I would get wishful.

I want to celebrate one of our future anniversary and wear a specially tailored wedding dress along with bling bling jewelries and look beautiful in it. I want to celebrate love by throwing a small reception attended only by my loved ones. I want to dance with my husband and have our pictures taken in our bridal attire. I want something to remember things by and I want to be able to show our grandchildren how our love transcend time against all odds.

It may not be able to turn back time but the future is still ours and a woman can dream, can’t she? My husband and I are not rich by any standard and money should not be spent on whimsical things like this but I could still dream and hope, can’t I?

If my husband and I have unlimited funds and were given a chance to have the celebratory wedding anniversary of our dreams, I would like everything to be very detailed.

I would like to throw a lakeside reception with roses decorated all over and I’ll be wearing both traditional and modern wedding dresses with Poh Kong jewelries that I’ve seen during their showcasing as they are not only beautiful but symbolise happiness too.

There’s plenty of intricately beautiful pieces of jewelries by Poh Kong like I’ve seen at the most recent showcasing but I’ve taken a peek at some of Poh Kong Year End Festive Collection a couple of days ago and is absolutely besotted with the dazzling creations.

I may no longer be the blushing newlywed nor an angel but having married to my husband on his birthday more than a decade back, I sure hope I’ll be his angel forever.

After striking lottery with the conception of our son a decade back, my husband and I have no luck for a second child. Perhaps, these would help boost our luck a little give us another bundle of joy to love.

2. Wedding anniversary celebration with the theme ‘Midsummer’s Night Dream

I’m no fairy but as a teenager, I have always love the Shakespeare’s Midsummer’s Night Dream that tells the love story between the fairy Queen Titania and Oberon. Inspired by their love story, I have always dreamed of wearing regally elegant dress that’s fit for a fairy queen. Should my fantasy comes true one day, there is nothing more I want to do than pair the dress with the latest Tranz Nature by Poh Kong collection.

3. Wedding anniversary celebration with the theme ‘White Serenade’.
