A Love Story in Soft White
An Intimate Beachfront
Wedding at Mandarin Oriental, Desaru Coast.
Some love stories deserve a setting as beautiful as the moments they hold. Set against the tranquil shores of Desaru Coast, this breathtaking wedding at Mandarin Oriental, Desaru Coast (formerly One&Only Desaru Coast, Johore) was a celebration of understated luxury, timeless romance and effortless elegance.
With the ocean as their backdrop and a gentle palette of soft whites and delicate pastels, our couple envisioned a wedding where every detail felt intentional, intimate and beautifully refined.
Beyond Photography, A Story Worth Remembering.
They entrusted us with their wedding not simply to capture beautiful photographs, but to preserve the emotions behind every moment.
From their intimate first look to the heartfelt vows exchanged by the endless sea, our approach was to let their love unfold naturally, capturing the quiet glances, happy tears, and moments that words could never fully describe.
Because years from now, we want Jiang Long and Vivien to look back at their photographs and not just remember how beautiful their wedding was, but feel exactly how much they loved each other that day.
A Ceremony Dressed in White
Beneath an open sky, an enchanting aisle adorned with an abundance of delicate white florals led towards a magnificent floral arch overlooking the sea.
The entire setting embraced a soft, almost ethereal aesthetic. Layers of ivory blooms, subtle pastel undertones and the natural blue hues of the ocean created a beautiful harmony between the wedding design and its coastal surroundings. There was beauty in its simplicity. Nothing needed to compete with the scenery.
Every element was thoughtfully composed to let the couple’s love take centre stage. As they walked hand in hand towards the ocean, surrounded by an endless sea of white blossoms, the moment felt like something from a dream.
Where Romance Meets the Ocean
What made this celebration particularly captivating was the effortless connection between the couple, the architecture of the setting and the surrounding natural landscape.
The bride’s magnificent white gown flowed gracefully against the delicate floral arrangements, while the groom’s classic black suit introduced a striking contrast to the softness of the ceremony. Against the muted coastal sky, every frame carried a sense of serenity and sophistication.
For us at Studio71, these are the moments that define timeless wedding photography. Beyond the beautiful styling and breathtaking location, it is the quiet intimacy, the unspoken emotions and the natural connection between two people that make an image truly unforgettable.
First-look
In a quiet moment before the celebration began, they shared their first look with no one else around, just the two of them and me behind the lens. No audience, no distractions. Just genuine emotions, happy tears, and a love that needed no words. A beautiful reminder that sometimes, the most intimate moments tell the greatest love stories.
As her parents gently placed the veil upon her
A beautiful moment of love and blessing unfolded. Surrounded by heartfelt applause, joyful smiles, touching heart, Vivien made her way towards a new chapter of life. A moment filled with emotion, where a parent’s love meets the beginning of a lifetime of promises.
Timeless Love, Beautifully Preserved
Some weddings are remembered for their grandeur. Others leave a lasting impression through their simplicity, thoughtful details and the emotions shared. This beautiful Desaru Coast celebration brought together both.
An endless ocean.
A dreamlike aisle of white flowers.
Two people beginning their next chapter together.
A love story told in the softest shades of white. And a reminder that true elegance never needs to be extravagant.
Following Jiang Long & Vivien intimate first look, their love story unfolded into a romantic seaside solemnisation. With endless ocean views, soft white sand beneath their feet, and the gentle sea breeze carrying their promises, Jiang Long and Vivien exchanged their vows surrounded by the beauty of nature. Against the breathtaking horizon, every glance, every smile, and every whispered promise became part of a timeless love story, where the sea meets the sky, and two hearts become one.
Where the Ocean Witnessed Their Forever
As Vivien gracefully walked down the aisle, with the endless ocean as their backdrop and loved ones witnessing every step, Jiang Long awaited her with a heart full of love. Beneath the open sky, they exchanged their heartfelt vows, promising a lifetime of love, laughter, and togetherness.
Every word,
every tear,
every laughs and every tender glance made this seaside ceremony a beautiful beginning to their forever.
An Evening by the Sea
As the ceremony transitioned into an evening celebration, the romance continued with a beachfront wedding dinner.
The oceanfront setting offered a beautiful continuation of the day’s soft, elegant atmosphere. From an intimate ceremony surrounded by white florals to an evening of celebration beside the sea, the wedding unfolded with a sense of effortless sophistication.
A celebration designed not simply to impress, but to be remembered.
