Some time ago our CEO, Chiou See, asked Bill if he would live stream her son's wedding so that her family in Singapore and the bride's family in Japan could watch the wedding live, since they couldn't travel here for the wedding due to Covid 19.
So we went along to the wedding held in an historic house courtyard in Brisbane. We spent all afternoon live streaming the wedding until Bill's Phone sent a message saying "iPhone is too hot turn off." Then Bill continued on Chiou See's phone.
It was a lovely wedding and we enjoyed the job even though we were tired when we got home. The bride's mother and Chiou See thanked us profusely for doing this so their families could watch. Chiou See said she would like to pay for us to go to dinner at her favourite French Restaurant as a 'thank you' for doing the filming.
So on my birthday last month we booked up to go to Aquitaine Restaurant at South Bank. We invited friends, Val and Peter to come with us. The food was delicious, the service excellent and the view lovely.
Happy belated birthday Diane.
ReplyDeleteThat was wonderful to live stream the wedding, all looking lovely too.
Looks a good meal and all the photos are nice to see.
Take care.
How kind of you both to live stream the wedding, which looked lovely. Many congratulations to the bride and groom, and may they have many, many years of happiness. Your get together later at your favorite restaurant looked splendid. A very sweet thank you from Chiou See.
ReplyDeleteexcellent photos and the bride is beautiful. what a great idea, i have no idea how to live stream anything but have watched a few weddings and a funeral that were livestreamed on facebook...
ReplyDeleteWe did it via live video on facebook. We had to put all the families contacts into Bill's phone.

ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday, Diane! What a delicious looking dinner you had. The wedding looked beautiful and it was so nice for Bil to help Chiou See's family in Japan. Modern technology has been so helpful during this pandemic.

Belated Happy Birthday! I'm impressed Bill was able to livestream the wedding for Chiou See. I didn't know you could do that with a cell phone.
ReplyDeleteThe bride looks beautiful.
Your birthday meal looks very gourmet and delicious.
Belated 🎂happy birthday wishes to you, Diane, and what a nice treat you received for Bill’s video efforts. Everyone looked happy and the meal looked wonderful. More cheese would have been nice with all that bread, I agree.
ReplyDeleteGreat that the two of you could do that for Chiou See's family -- I can only imagine how many people were grateful for your efforts. And the reward dinner looked delicious and fun!
ReplyDeleteThat's nice that Bill was the cameraman of a wedding ! In our age we are going more often to funerals, so that was a nice exception and the food looks delicious too !
