More than two years after registering their marriage, Taiwanese actress Joe Chen, 45, and her husband, Johor-born artist Alan Chen, 36, returned to where their love began – Langkawi – for a beach wedding.
The couple met on the second season of Chinese dating reality show Meeting Mr Right in 2019 and Alan had asked the actress to be his girlfriend on the Langkawi Sky Bridge.
Among the star-studded guests at the intimate bash on Sep 22 were Joe’s former 7 Flowers bandmates, who served as bridesmaids, while her pals, Taiwanese actors Joseph Cheng, 42, and Ming Dao, 44, were part of the groomsmen.
Ming Dao’s four-year-old son was also part of the wedding as a flower boy, while the actor’s one-year-old daughter made an appearance with him on stage.
Fans sent the wedding couple their well wishes online, but what also got netizens talking was how doting a father Ming Dao is.
During the banquet, Ming Dao, former member of the boy band Club 183, sang Wakin Chau’s ‘I’m Gonna Marry You Tomorrow’, while cradling his daughter, who was fast asleep in his arms.
Sharing a snippet of his performance on Douyin, Ming Dao said: “This is the song just for you today, my friend. I hope that after hearing it, you’ll always be happy.”
The video went viral, with many netizens commenting that they were touched by the sweet scene.
