After seven years and one wedding hashtag poll later, Jeffrey Xu and Felicia Chin finally tied the knot yesterday (Oct 22) at a ceremony in Bethesda (Bedok-Tampines) Church. 

Close to 500 of Feli and Jeffrey's friends and family attended the wedding, while China-born Jeffrey's parents and loved ones had their own celebration in a restaurant in Shanghai, which was shown on a screen in the church hall throughout the ceremony.

The wedding was also live streamed and watched by more than 4,000 fans online. 

It was, yes, a wedding befitting for one of Singapore's sweetest celeb couples. And 8days.sg was there in person to soak up the love.

So sweet

When 8days.sg  arrived bright and early at the church — we were told to be seated by 10.15am — many of Feli and Jeffrey's showbiz pals, like Fiona Xie, Pierre PngChew Chor Meng and wife Deon Tan, Chen Shucheng, Chen Xiuhuan, Yvonne Lim, Aileen Tan, Benjamin TanXu Bin, his wife Evelyn and their three-year-old son Ethan, Mark Lee and wife Catherine were seated and all ready to see the couple get hitched.

Arriving shortly after us were Zoe TayChantalle NgPhyllis Quek, Angela Ang, Joshua Tan, Shane Pow, Kimberly Chia, her husband and their six-month-old son Kyzen, Belinda Lee and her husband David, as well as woman-of-the-moment Hong Huifang and her daughter Tay Ying.

Seated on the other side of the hall were Rebecca Lim, Elvin NgRomeo Tan, Ayden Sng, Zhang Zetong, Herman Keh and Zhai Siming

Desmond Tan and his low-profile wife, whom we can confirm is very pretty, were also spotted at the wedding. 

We even bumped into Fann Wong outside the toilet. We're guessing Christopher Lee wasn't there because of his recent foot injury? P/S: Chris would be named Best Supporting Actor at Taiwan's Golden Bell Awards that very night. So congrats Chris! 

At 10.42am, Felicia, dressed in a gorgeous Marchesa tulle gown from The Proposal, entered the room, while an acoustic version of the 'Bridal Chorus' played in the background. 

It was hard not to feel emotional at this moment. Just ask Chantalle, whom we espied wiping tears from her eyes. 

The bride was accompanied down the aisle by her mother. Feli lost her dad to cancer when she was just 17.

In fact, it was one of the most touching weddings we have been too. 

We mean, local singers Olivia Ong and Hong Junyang, who attended the wedding with wife Candyce Toh, leading worship songs?

The sweetest moment, though, had to be when Feli and Jeffrey took turns to address their folks.

When Jeffrey started his speech by accidentally calling Feli's mum "auntie", you could hear an audible gasp in the crowd — Feli even went "ohhhhhh!!".

Jeffrey then cleverly salvaged the situation by saying: "Today is the last day I'll call you auntie. From now on, I'll call you mum." 

"Even though previously I always called you auntie, I've always seen you as my family in Singapore," he added. 

He then went on to thank Feli's mum for cooking him a bowl of noodles, which reminded him what it feels like to be around family, during his darkest point in life. 

"Thank you for bringing up such a wonderful daughter, I promise to love her and take good care of her. And I'll also love you more [from now on]," said Jeffrey.

Meanwhile, Feli's words to Jeffrey's parents had us reaching for our hankies too. 

"Thank you, I've known Jeffrey for seven years, I'm exceptionally moved that you've always treated me like your own daughter," said Feli. 

The humorous Feli then thanked her mother-in-law for "always standing on her side whenever she fought with Jeffrey" before bursting into her signature hearty laughter that we're all so familiar with.

After the event, the guests were led to the dining hall to enjoy a buffet (see below) while Feli changed into her second gown, which was also from The Proposal.

And yes, if you're wondering, there was wine, much to the delight of a number of guests. 

Oh, and there was free hipster coffee too, courtesy of The Freshman’s Chen Diya's Sanity Coffee café. Helping out at the booth was Chantalle, who spent almost the entire post-wedding reception taking orders. 

That's not all, Diya and Carrie Yeo also threw in a live performance to entertain the guests.

All in all, it was a beautiful day filled with happy tears and laughter. And we don't think Feli and Jeffrey would have wanted it any other way. 

So now, shall we let the pictures do the talking?
