Honeymoon Locations in Malaysia

Over the years I have been to many hotels throughout Malaysia and wanted to put up some of my suggestions.

Four Seasons Langkawi Island: Intimate and quiet. The perfect honeymoon destination where everyone know your name. You can enjoy the infinite pool, water sports, cycle rides to waterfalls. his hotel tops my list for couples who want that something special. They have a variety of specials for honeymoon couples so best you call ahead.

Pangkor Laut Resort: Another very pleasant location.Â A bit busier and will feel a bit more hustle and bustle, but a tasteful resort experience.

Datai & Andaman Hotels: The Datai and Andaman are both fantastic places. Deciding between the two can be difficult.

Westin Langkawi: Lovely beach and larger scale than the above resorts. It can feel like a family holiday destination.

Suresh and Shamini’s Wedding in Church of St John the Divine, Ipoh and the Victoria Holiday Villa Subang

Church of St John the Divine Ipoh wedding

When Suresh and Shamini contacted me to be their wedding photographerÂ they explained it would be a two…well actually 3 day affair. The first day, not featured here, was their ROM (Registration of Marriage) done in Kuala Lumpur. The second day was held in Ipoh at one of the Anglican churches, Church of St John the Divine, St John’s Road, Ipoh, to be precise. This was followed by dinner in the Ipoh town hall. The following week we were the photographers for their KL dinner, which was held in the Victoria Ballroom at the Holiday Villa in Subang.

Hindu Wedding Ceremony at the Holiday Villa Subang followed by a Dinner Banquet at the Eastin Hotel

A beautiful Hindu wedding celebrated at the Holiday Villa in Subang Jaya and then a banquet at the Eastin Hotel in Petaling Jaya. Due to the size of the wedding we decided on three of us to be in the photography team for the day. This enabled us to photograph from many angles without having to struggle to maneuver around the guests. They loved their photos and their mum went on to use them in advertising for her wedding business.

A wedding in City Harvest Church KL and dinner at the Holiday Inn Glenmarie

Kevin and Monica’s wedding was at the first City Harvest Church in Subang. The old building was never a great place to shoot, with everything dark and blue, there being no windows whatsoever and the sewage aeration ponds across the road. Not nice! This is quite different from their new location which is such a nice set up for weddings that it is difficult to get a bad photo there. Despite that, it was always a favorite church to shoot in, being one of the more lively and “happening” churches in KL. You will also see our additional lighting in some of these photos. This was years before radio strobes became popular. You will also see a very young Pastor Kevin Loo.

After the main ceremony we headed to the Holiday Inn, Glenmarie, for the Chinese tea ceremonies and dinner banquet. You will also notice in one of these photos my good friend Louis Pang (a wedding photographer from KK) and I posing for a shot. He is one of the relatives and also in the tea ceremony photos.
